“THE MEANING OF LIFE
AND
THE WORLD ACCORDING TO ME”
Does God have a plan, what Is his plan, could this be his experiment,
From our first breath until our last breath there Is life In between.
The mystery of why we are here Is perhaps overthought, what Is this life,

The meaning of life appears very simple and not so confusing dear one,
Sit back and listen as I give my heart felt thoughts of where we are and why.

Good morning, Spriggans, Sprites, and creatures of light! My son wanted to paint this morning, so I created a base for a painting I’ll be working on as I can. The horse was inspired by the ones depicted in Holly Black’s “Folk of the Air” series.
How I love that series…
Anywho, it got me thinking about the art I usually create. They tend to go one of two ways…either there is some sort of joyous freedom or escape as above, or there’s teeth, claws, and spikes everywhere (or even better, some combination of the two!). Both are huge pieces of me…but more like things I always longed for as a kid.
In the past I wished for freedom, so I created it in pictures, poems and stories. And I also often wished I had magic, fangs, and claws…of a sort anyway, and that has forever been evident in my…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, all! As an Irish American, a mythology/religion major, and a pagan, I have a lot of complicated feelings about this holiday, but I do appreciate the chance to revel in the swirling, turbulent history of our world and my own family (and blast my Irish folk music without restraint).

A creativity challenge…
One of my favorite writing challenges I hosted on Brave and Reckless since I launched the blog was the Moon Ate the Dark Challenge back in 2017. I still love the prompt and would love to see what new pieces of writing or art it might inspire.

“All logic and reason escaped me.
Because all I wanted was you.
And I couldn’t bring myself to care.”
And I felt it in my bones. The beat of my heart matched the hammering of your footsteps on the cool concrete. And I listened to your soles crunching the gravel beneath them. In those moments, as you came towards me, I felt free. Open. Like nothing in the world could stop us. Like you were the only thing I would ever need. Like not even oxygen would sustain me. All logic and reason escaped me. Because all I wanted was you. And I couldn’t bring myself to care.
