Citizen Soldier

WoW! What an incredible video and song! I have never been one for politics and I so hate it when grown adults act like children in the political arena. Let's just leave the name calling, mudslinging, finger pointing and taddle telling to the kindergardeners. Where I do find soul, heart, love and patriotism is in the soldiers who so incredibly make sacrifices daily so our selfish politicians can have that freedom. Soldiers you have my respect and admiration. One of my life's greatest regrets is never serving this country in the military as my father and my grandfather's did. Soldiers are the reason we are who we are! We owe you our respect and admiration. Our prayers and thoughts are with you!

This year's election is very important concerning the future of this nation. We have one with experience and military service in a time when our country so needs a leader with these traits and the other who seems to cozy up to a more socialist agenda and future for our country. The possibilities of this country forgetting our original freedoms is daunting. I fear for our security and future as a nation if we chose unwisely this election. In the end you decide and your fate is of your own making. I for one chose McCain/Palin the other option is just flat out frightening to consider.

Recovering well thanks for all the prayers!

I survived my last surgery and seem to be recovering well. I want to thank everyone for your prayers and thoughts. They help more than you may ever know. I feel so good I am even creating art. It seems like it's been forever since I could actually concentrate on something besides pain. I am posting an exploration of a new style I have been working on. It is all digital and very loosely and gesturally created. I like the painterly style and mood of this piece invoked by my dark feelings from this summer's trials and the upcoming Star Wars Force Unleashed game. I am currently reading the novel and feel such kinship to the character of Vader's apprentice. It is a redemptive tale that involves facing one's dark side and coming to terms with your inner demons. I am a huge Star Wars oober geek so just nod your head and agree lol! ENJOY!
