You are a great artist; not flattery, just truth. I love the detail with the Rosary, the 'innocence in st. nunzio's eyes, the 'soft brown colors, etc., etc. Now I hope to look-up St. Nunzio and learn a little about him! Happy St. Rita de Cascia feast day today, Terry Nelson. I had forgotten 'her day''. Hoping this finds you very well and Gesu, Marie and Joseph bless you and ALL loved-ones! RosaMaria..
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. ~e.e. cummings
Watchmen
And suddenly the truth came to me, as we stood there, trembling, searching, at our point of fulcrum. There were no watching eyes. The windows were as blank as they looked. The theatre was empty. It was not a theatre. They had told her it was a theatre, and she had believed them, and I had believed her. To bring us to this - not for themselves, but for us. I turned and looked at the windows, the facade, the pompous white pedimental figures. - John Fowles, The Magus
St. Sebastian
More 'about me'.
... My idea of what I am is falsified by my preoccupation about what I do. And my illusions about myself are bred by contagion from the illusions of other men. We all seek to emulate one anothers imagined greatness....If I do not know who I am, it is because I think I am the sort of person everyone around me wants me to be. I have asked myself whether I wanted to become what everybody else seems to want to become... only to realize that I do not admire what everyone else seems to admire. I have only thus begun to live after all... But it is very late. - Adapted from a quote by Thomas Merton
