Sometimes I wonder about the meaning of life. I'm not so sure, what I believe about destiny. Do we really have a choice in the choices we make? Why are some lives constantly gasping for air while being pulled under with so hurt and pain, while others seem to be on a life raft that never deflates? I know you know what I mean. :) Strange the paths our thoughts travel...
In the end, it all seems to come down to her deepest beliefs. From those deepest beliefs, we write the scripts of our lives. Beautifully done, Gypsy. And hey, this illustration is priceless!
yes, i do know from whence you speak - i think it's only natural to wonder of the meaning of life, six - i certainly do - i question it - i question me - i question the universe - how else might we reach a point of view, but for our own experiences and seeking knowledge - of course, i've questioned everything all my life - my curse in childhood! ;)
in my own family, with my own children, there are differences in how each copes or is not able to cope with life - with issues - with choices - one gasping for air since birth and still gasping - another seemingly sailing through and achieving all - did one have life lessons to be learned in this life that the other did not - and what good a lesson that is so painful - all pain, even - or was one not given the same building blocks from infancy as the other - and are we truly free to choose or are we not each impacted upon by our environment - so many questions -
[and about some of those "others" whose own lives seem so ripple-free - i wouldn't be so sure, dear friend - one never knows what is on the other side of THEIR doors!]
i've no clue how this piece came about, trish, actually - a few days ago i began with the words "i don't wanna go down" - have no clue what precipitated those words or any of the others here - but last night i came across the first ones i'd scribbled on something - and there it is - anyway, i looked for some time to find the right image - and this one seemed to fit - thanks so much for the kind words!
Your writing is incredible. Wishing you a lovely Sunday. xo
fascinating piece you've penned here, my dear...i have all sorts of thoughts about it, most of which i could not begin to write about here in this little box...the drawing/painting is also quite compelling and matches the mood of your musings....brilliant. perfection. xox
Staggering - what can I say? It has that cynical cutting edge I so love - I wish I'd written this!
oh, my dear lady in the garden! how could i have missed your visit - i sometimes am very bad about not checking back on older pieces - but so glad i did as i've several wonderful comments to find here! in any event, thank you for your so kind words, dear lady! and i'm wishing you a magnificent upcoming weekend!
oh and dearest lovelylinda! PLEASE please do write down your thoughts - even if in an email! i would SO love to know your own thoughts - won't you indulge me! ;)
and thank you seems so trivial for your precious words! i love your visits so much, dear friend! and send you much love and affection!
oh, so nice to hear, steppenwolf! can you hear these words as a song? i mean, when i read them, i HEAR them in lyrics - - and the cynical cutting edge - that's a very mild statement compared to what i think! ;)
thanks so much for always adding a bright spot to my days!
