love is a command to rise to ones highest potential - ayn rand

hey beautiful creatures

i so hope you are all doing well. here in london we are having such a summery start of fall. today = 25 degrees:) even though a lot of things are happening that i truly do not want, i find blessings in the fact that my art classes are to begin:))) to see my art teacher twice a week, will improve everything regardless of what happens to me/ for me! oh and YES, my lovely friend sue shared some faerie tale perfection which i am to share with you soon:)))

i so miss my sweetness though,
 since i have not seen her for days:(((

i wanna share this wisdom
as created by the amazing
ayn rand
which i am referencing in my golden circle of violette film
 which can be devoured  in this blogpost:)

the passion

love is....

love is a command to rise to ones highest potential

the best and noblest vision of ourselves

love is a reward

the greatest we can earn

granted to us

for the moral qualities we have achieved in our lives

- ayn rand

and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?

look to this day, for it is life

look to this day,
for it is life, the very life of life.
in its brief course lie all the
varieties and realities of your existence:
the bliss of growth,
the glory of action,
the splendour of beauty;
for yesterday is but a dream
and to-morrow is only a vision,
but to-day well lived makes
every yesterday a dream of happiness,
and every to-morrow a vision of hope.
look well therefore to this day!
such is the salutation of dawn.

 so the august days are filled of teachings, plannings, clearings with magical mornings.

meeting lovely people. afternoons in my park and my garden.

she say's

come be my magic

come be my joy

angels

come join in 

for an eternity

of

unconditional love

next spring

=

ophelia

with love from ophelia

i haven't seen you

for what seems like an age,

not even a word torn from the

corner of a page

have you scrawled to remind me

that you knew i was here,

alone in the dark

with my mouth full of fear

that you'd never return.

while i've tried to remember the 

sound of your voice

my heart has bled violets

i've had no other choice,

and now you've returned, you don't 

know my face;

your eyes are blank walls

and nobody tells

why all i can see

is my reflection in them;

no recognition

of our skins' intuition -

what is the condition?

i don't understand.

and now i'm in water

surrounded by flowers

whose petals i've cried

over hours and hours.

my heart has grown heavy

and i'm starting to sink,

my hair turns to willow,

my eyes cherry-bloss pink,

returning to flowers 

is all i can think.

from out of my chest

 sprout blue hollyhocks

all round me is silent 

but the sound of a clock

and the roll of the water

 as it circles my face

like translucent lace;

the veil of my watery pall.
