C’est la vie

.. tree of ours may grow tall in the woods ..

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
As age comes on, one source of enjoyment after another is closed,
but Nature’s sources never fail.

Depth over distance every time, my dear
And this tree of ours may grow tall in the woods
But it’s the roots that will bind us here
To the ground

.. maybe what’s broken ..

Life experience is what defines our character,
even if it means getting your heart broken or being lied to.
You know, you need the downs to appreciate the ups.
Going on the adventure or taking that risk is important.

.. maybe what's broken ..

So many events, so little time.  Shiny Shabby opens again and that’s where I found the outfit, shoes, jewelry and hair.  The little dog came from The Gacha Garden and the bag, the glasses and the fuzzy dice are all to be found in the Gift Shop at the Festival of Sin II which starts tomorrow, and yes they are GIFTS for all!

.. meaning to sing you the song ..

/ Sunshine / Leave a comment

I had the opportunity to visit the Shiny Shabby event yesterday and I nearly bought one of everything!  I had fun meandering around the streets of the event, poking my head in to see what the creators have designed specifically for the February round. Shiny Shabby is described as “a flea market for new and weathered things”.  Those that love vintage and antique items in Second Life will be over the moon this round. So many things to choose from. But if you enjoy a more modern style, don’t despair.. there is plenty for you too!  The event opens in grand style at noon SLT today (February 20th). Take the time to visit this cool new event.

We know so perfectly how to give birth to the monsters inside us,
but for reasons I will never figure out,
we have not the slightest clue of what to do with all the love.
~Christopher Poindexter

You know you’re in trouble
When the spotlight is on you
When nothing can be trusted
And you don’t know what to do

Hold on to yourself
You’re just someone like me
And you’re slowly becoming
What you’re pretending to be

I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long

And to all you good people
That were lost along the way
I have need for your smiles
And friendship today

All those magical nights
When our aim seemed so true
You of all must know the reason
I still feel like I do

I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long

I must take to the stage
I need nerves of steel
No matter how weak
And how weightless I feel

I just wanted to come across strong
Who, really, who was I trying to fool
