Personal Epilogue to " A New View"



There is a Place

There is a place
Where none is the sound
But of rushing waters

And birds at play
and work

There is a place
For the soul
Where the spirit may stop

To connect
With memories
Long past

And dreams
Of memories
Still yet
To be made
-
We cannot suppose to all be the same in ability.
Until we have been empowered by knowledge,
And given the wisdom to use that knowledge,
With all our heart, all our might, all our strength.
Opening ourselves to the most tender, sensitive
components in our lives is not easy.
Nothing of any worth ever is.
Passion without guidance is useless.
Like a ship without a rudder.
Thanks Rod

  1. You my friend are a gifted artist and a damn-fine communicator.

    As people who care, it's our responsibility to express this vision we share. To prove — then prove again and again that great images come from the heart, not the machine.

    And I really want to thank you for what you do as well. It's this constant stream of inspiration that will change the minds of society ... nothing else. I make you this promise, I will not stop (ever). And I hope you wont either. Your images and words inspire on a level mine never will. Thank you my friend for the kind and insightful message (and messages) but mostly for having the courage to share all of them with others.

    You ... are my inspiration.
