Here comes three question from God:
“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell me if you have understanding who set its measurements?
Since you know. Then who stretched the line on it?
Job 38 : 4 – 5
Age in colour
No longer tipped in funnel shaped blue flowers gently or fiercely moving their whole
Agapanther – structure .

Guillaume Apollinaire said something I don’t fully understand but maybe you do.
“A structure becomes architectural, and not sculptural , when it’s elements no longer have their justification in nature.”
He was French and of Polish descent. He was a poet, playwright, short story writer, novelist and art critic. He lived 1880-1918. I wonder if I have used ‘architectural ‘ and ‘sculptural’ in the way he explanes them ? ...

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn’t show.

I want to be around people that do things, I don’t want to be around people anymore that judge or talk about what people do. I want to be around people that dream and support and do things.
