• Art+Wine=Writing…

  

  I cannot draw, I cannot paint. Whenever I see something amazing in art, I have a true appreciation for it.

• Challenges…obstacles…and petite Syrah…(shit what have I got myself into?)

  I used to look at obstacles as awful. The worst. I am weak. I cannot do it. I’m not strong enough. The voice in my head…I’m too old. I hurt to much. I changed jobs for an easier life. What are they trying to do kill me? When a wrench is thrown I usually run…
