I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry.
And I know you do the same things too, so we're really not that different, me and you.
Colin Raye (American country music singer)

In this theater of man's life,
it is reserved only for God and angels to be lookers-on.

This whole creation is essentially subjective,
and the dream is the theater where the dreamer is at once:
scene, actor, prompter, stage manager, author, audience, and critic.
Carl Gustav Jung
The only place where your dream becomes "impossible" is in your own thinking.

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible;
and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”
St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226)
This post is for
my friend "Linda"
to honor the
appearance of her
"First Buttercup"
up north,
in CANADA!
Last year I painted
O'Miss Daff Odile
a bright sunny face,
and paired her
with Wilton Warbler.
And, once Daff
got together
with Warb
it has been
"daffy down dilly"
around here!

Late one night last week I went into the studio,
and found the “Nopalitos” plant were huddled in a hush, hush!
Can you believe this ???
I wonder what they were up to? What do you think?
