This drawing is from my sketchbook, it is printable if you'd like some free art. It would make a nice wall hanging gift for someone if put in a frame or on a piece of wood and decoupaged.
A few hours earlier, I decided to google "shirley_is"...one of the exact match sites showed "shirley_is" and then went on to refer to some "Sri Swami Vishwananda" (I'm skeptically thinking{another Maharishi?} and his travels and inspiring teachings,which I couldn't find anything I disagreed with!..."God" DOES work in mysterious ways! I highly recommend his site...I'd like to post an exerpt I read that I felt could only enhance this page: Looking at the World with Divine Eyes
Here another excerpt of one of Sri Swami Vishwananda's Speeches: Looking at the world with Divine eyes, you will see that the world is simply the radiated light of God shining through everything. Keep trying until you have come to that realization and never loose hope. The moment you loose hope, you loose everything. The moment you say, “I can’t do this,” you will not be able to do it. Challenge your fear! Keep reminding yourself that you are part of God. You are in His Divine hands and He will never let go of you. Never! He always will be nearer to you than the breath or the air you are breathing in.
You try to imagine how close God is with the mind. It’s difficult, isn’t it? The mind will never let you imagine God. When you start thinking with the mind of the heart, then you may realize Divinity completely. How does one think with the heart? Meditation is an important element in thinking with the heart as you sit with yourself in silence. Jesus said, “When you pray, go to the darkest corner of your house, close yourself in and talk with your Father.” Christ meant for you to go into the inner chamber of your heart and speak with God. Talk with your true Self, and you will receive an answer. So, what exactly is in this inner chamber of the heart? Therein is just love, nothing else!

I know my blog will have much more mention of this focused spiritual avatar with whom I strangely found myself and my blog being referred with his. He managed to inspire me and cleared my hazed eyes of how dim my candle was burning, as if nearing the end of my wick. A slap in the face with some humility I obviously needed! LOL! Thank you Sri Viswananda! Blessings!

About 3years ago,Ron stopped by my place out in the woods and didn't want to leave without me.He swept me off my feet like a knight in shining armor on a white steed(he had just purchased an old police Harley Davidson...yep, his iron horse was white)and moved me up to Sultan with him.I often tease him of being my "knight in shining armor":)
...but that's all over...my knight has ridden off and I'm left to fend on my own again...with a little help from my friends.Let you know when I know more..
