Marie, I love the cheeky swish of the tail. Certainly a cheerier beast than Dürer's! I hope painting this allowed you to 'escape' for a brief moment of mental freedom.

Isn't this just one of the cruellest and most nonsensical pastimes known to us? I think you have captured the vanity of the man and the look of complete bewilderment in the bull's eyes. I dread to think what these beautiful creatures suffer in the name of sport & entertainment. There have been several petitions lately, which I have signed, in the hope of encouraging the Spanish authorities to put an end to this outrageous offence against both human and animal dignity.

Beautiful image and worrying thoughts. You are quite right, it is very unnerving indeed.

Hey! I read your post about change. I have no idea who you are. But man, I really needed to read something like this. I am in a stage where I need to prepare myself for change. get a new job!
Be prepared! yes! Your letter was AMAZING. :)
God bless :) Please keep writing. You are really helping and changing the world.

I also read your bio/profile.
I LOVED this: "We may rest assured that nothing ever happens on Earth without God's permission. What a source of consolation to know that even the sufferings and adversities which God sends us are or our very best, designed to mold us into the person He wants us too be." =^.^=
I am sending it to my mom, and sharing it. I also want to put it on my desk to see everyday. Life can be tough sometimes. It is so important to remember that god has control of this world :)

“I will eliminate hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism, by developing love for all humanity, because I know that a negative attitude toward others can never bring me success. I will cause others to believe in me, because I will believe in them, and in myself.”
― Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

Here are more quotes from napoleon hill:
It is your responsibility to make sure that positive emotions constitute the dominating influence of your mind.”
― Napoleon Hill
“Anything you do to and for another person, you do it to and for yourself”
― Napoleon Hill,
“Remember, the thoughts that you think and the statements you make regarding yourself determine your mental attitude. If you have a worthwhile objective, find the one reason why you can achieve it rather than hundreds of reasons why you can't”
― Napoleon Hill
“Remember,too,that all who succeed in life get off to a bad start,and pass through many heartbreaking struggles before they "arrive". The turning point in the lives of those who succeed usually comes at some moment of crisis,through which they are introduced to their "other selves".”

have a great one. please keep writing!

I read your letter on getting along. I loved it. Thank you for sharing it. It is really important to learn how to get along with others. Have you read Napoleon Hill? He follows Jesus's words and has a similar philosophy to yours. I think you'll like him. He gives great advice about how to succeed you need to learn to get along with others. Think positive

Hi Nate, welcome you to me and my obsession of a new friend like you. like seeing your real handwriting and the real works you produce. Can't wait see more of that clever mind you make me so very happy ! Z :-)

Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.

I disagree with your calling Greensleeves a "romantic folk ballad". It's a very pretty song, but when you listen to the lyrics, it's 27 verses of "Look at all the things I've done for you, why will you still not sleep with me???" ;)

You made my day with this. I love your sense of humor.
