Sigh.....

So most of the cool kids are converging on some shooty goodness. One is on a trip through Alaska. One is at home but was not wanting to be. I will be over here kicking rocks in the corner. 

So tonight a watercolor painting. It was made for me by someone almost a decade ago. She pretty much sized me up with this painting.























Anyone that makes anything for me is special. The fact she whipped out a quote that pretty much sums me up to this day is profound. From Kahlil Gibran on the painting: "Would that I could be the peacemaker in your soul, that I might turn the discord and the rivalry of your elements into oneness and melody". She took artistic license and modified the quote. No matter.

The rest of the quote she left out: "But how shall I, unless  you yourselves be also the peacemakers, nay, the lovers of all your elements?"

No bother. For this friend from a decade ago I offer this:

I have plenty to do this weekend!
