Behold
Isaiah 7:14 was written over 700 years before Jesus was born.
La Steaua (The Star)
This is a very famous late poem by the Romanian national poet Mihai Eminescu. In my translation, a long vanished star is depicted as memorial of love - the one kind of light always present even when what gave life to it no longer exists. Every generation carries that light within them onwards as those before it and love remains in the world. And for the future - something beautiful like that is not really an illusion; its a tribute to the best part of ourselves.

Back to the Future
It's amazing that I've been so inspired to write poetry lately when I'm in such a hurry to get artwork done lol But have been watching Jane Austen movies lately... Compared to how screwed up love was back then, when all that mattered in the most part, was a man or woman's fortune... While today is the way they look, and how skinny they've become, or how emptily famous. We haven't changed, not really. I'd love if all went back before fame, fortune and air brushed playboy models made impressions on our world wide cultures... I'd like to go back there, when a man would look at a woman and simply love. Not because she had money or could fit into a size 2, but because she was simply...herself. And vice versa...so I've decided not to let myself accept anything less.

Soul Goddess Challenge, YOU MADE THE SUN SHINE
Hi SG, Looking at your brief, I thought I would approach this from the viewpoints of both teacher and class, it is so easy for misunderstandings to go unsorted on both sides when they don't communicate properly. So this is about a teacher that sees that learning is a two way street.They were too busy doing their job to teach, and, a class that finds a teacher is not what they thought, who helped them in ways they never expected. Hope I got it right and that this is OK for you.....Andrew...xxx

Did we go wrong somewhere? Or is this what we wanted to create? You only have the mirror to blame! Plain and simple, it is what it is. In case you wonder what I write about and can't figure it out. Then, perhaps you are part of the new! Here's the answer in case anyone wondered! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipe6CMvW0Dg
