"I have just three things to teach:
simplicity, patience, compassion.
These three are your greatest treasures.
Simple in actions and in thoughts,
you return to the source of being.
Patient with both friends and enemies,
you accord with the way things are.
Compassionate toward yourself,
you reconcile all beings in the world."
- Lao Tzu
I am Winsor Blue when I am not trying to be Cadmium Yellow.
I am a lonely painter I live in a box of paints.
I want to be a Buddha girl and I believe Zen = Truth.
I sing songs and the trees listen.
I was a bottlenose dolphin in a former life.
I play the piano she is my friend.
I used to play the guitar he is no longer my friend.
I take photographs of everything, so many.
I believe kindness is more important than you think it is.
I believe humour is my saviour, those who make me laugh are sacred.
I have on my wishlist: Tori Amos, Eddie Izzard, Drew Barrymore, Joni
Mitchell, Jack Black, Owen Wilson, Ricky Gervais, Ben Stiller, Ed Norton,
Kate Winslet and Jennifer Garner.
I don't function well in groups, I like being alone or with few people.
I think all people should go in to therapy, there is no-one issue-less.
I have crooked fingers and a slanted smile.
I agree that The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is 42.
I love flowers and flowers love me.
I have too many teddy-bears waiting around for me.
I am politically, in denial.
I am in awe of elephants, I find them graceful.
I was meant to fly, nature forgot to put my wings in.
I am not a hippie, I am too cynical and down-to-earth for that.
I am however a bohemian* eccentric and I like me that way.
I don't understand the concept of marriage.
I think Ghandi had a very good approach to life, most of the time.
I don't understand hetero/homo/bisexuality, I fall in love with people regardless of their gender.
I don't put things in 'boxes', few things need labels, labeling doesn't make life easier, it limits it.
I am a lipstick addict.
I have noticed that 'incredibly funny' is much better than 'very pretty'.
I never let a hairdresser cut my hair, it is a waste of money, I do it myself.
I am too often too cynical and too positive which brings me to a nice neutral point.
I don't believe in maths, religion and war.
I am not a january girl or a black dove, I am a raisin girl.
I now belong to the Nikon d70 club, yes, be jealous. ;)
I would describe myself as confused with sparse but worthwile moments of brilliant clarity.
I think everything and everyone is a paradox.
Including me.
*A Bohemian = A person with artistic or literary interests who disregards conventional standards of behaviour.
