Superhero Journal: Only you

May 02, 2005

Only you

Mission St. lanterns, Canon Digital Rebel

I'm swimming in a sea of Mother's Day orders. Little colorful bits of glass dance in my head as I sleep. So many superhero moms this year!

Will hopefully get back to writing soon. For now, I will leave you with a quote from one of my favorite people in the world, Gordon Mackenzie.
"If you go to your grave
  without painting
  your masterpiece,
    it will not
    get painted.
    No one else
    can paint it.
        Only you.
           —Gordon MacKenzie, Orbiting the Giant Hairball

My earrings arrived yesterday. I love them ~ thank you! You should start an 'Earrings of the Month Club'. I'll be your first member!

A beautiful string of GRASS & SKY arrived for me earlier this week. I am continually surprised at how it sings and shines up to me each time I wear it. I am convinced it has magic in it, it is revealed to me in the way it glows.
I wanted to thank you Andrea for putting beauty into the world, to name just one way, in your jewelry designs.

Thanks again! :)

When I read that poem, a song immediately jumped into my head - appropriately called 'Only You' from the musical Starlight Express'...
