" There’s a quote saying something like, “into every life some rain must fall”. Well, even though there are thousands of quotes and they’re all in Chinese cookies, it doesn’t mean they’re true or even accurate. Life is not a bowl of cherries and even if it was someone’s biting into the pit which means pain, dental work, more pain, more dental work and on and on. You get the picture.
Speaking of picture or in this case painting, finding the right painting can improve whatever circumstance you’re in. You know that there are negative people and positive people. Ever notice how negative people find a way to weasel out on things, constantly bring an attitude and manifestation of negative ongoing commentaries, are sick more and live in a state of fear and depression. The right painting can even help them. Getting out of yourself, not being so self absorbed, and looking for and asking for the truth, can bring you a long way to redefining the positives and being thankful.
In the featured “StormBrewing” Paintings, you can focus on all the negative stuff that’s going on in your life or you can look at the roll and the movement of the ocean. You can rest in the power and the energy. You can focus that it’s something that is temporary and the sunshine will glisten once again with newness of life. There are a lot of choices in one’s life, some good and some bad, some you regret for a lifetime and some you’ll be thankful for.
Be thankful, be positive and find a great painting that captures your heart’s emotions!" POETIC PONTIFICATION:
“Who chose for you the things that were to be?
You or your family that made you what others see?
Have you seen with eyes of pain, faced peril and regret?
Have you forsaken your words and a new course set?
May you find the truth beyond embedded control;
Go back, stand up, be positive, and be ever so bold!”
“Have a great week; spend time with great paintings; and choose life. You are not your own.”

"Got an email on Friday morning telling me that this was the first day of the Easter Holiday in the UK; and it was actually called Good Friday. Although a religious holiday many from all religions take it off to spend with family to give gifts of chocolates and decorate eggs. He was getting this all out of the way early so he could spend it providing all his customers with tools, techniques and strategies to ensure he delivered on his promises.
While all that sounds so nice a quote comes to mind; “there are none so blind as those who cannot see”.
This is one of the most important events in history. No other sacrifice could be offered on behalf of mankind who had willfully disobeyed Him, The God of Heaven & Earth, and set in motion eternal separation. The only way that The Only, Perfect, Holy, Just God could be satisfied was to sacrifice Himself in human form on the cross. Then He rose alive; defeating death and the sentence given, on the third day.
Once again providing humanity with a choice “Life” or “Death”? He is Risen! Choose Life!" POETIC PONTIFICATION:
“I thought I was OK going along in my own way.
Never realizing the path I’d been on each day.
Then I heard the good news of God’s sacrificial lamb
It went direct to my heart and who I really am.
So the decision was made to believe in Christ
Now my Lord, my Savior and forever my Life!”
“Let the painting take your heart and lead you to the path of change. Have a great weekend as you remember what it is all about.”

" In a week filled with rats, bats and videos as well as twitter, tv and the web, it makes you stop and want to take a breath. Seems like we all have schedules and impossible check lists. With all of that “Connections” are at the heart of the human experience. It’s a series of who you are connected with, who you were connected with and who you’re going to be connected with.
My Dad used to say connections are the most important things and being connected to God is your most important connection. In doing the painting above, I thought a lot about connections and that paint only offers an example of one of the ways we get connected. Think about it. Someone can introduce you. You meet someone when you expected to meet someone else. You start to follow someone on the social media circuit. You watch and introduce yourself to someone who: created a video, wrote an article, has a product or service to sell, offers you something you need and on and on.
To me, as you’ve heard me before, paintings are a great way to connect to a vast reservoir of memories. They are just waiting to be unlocked and brought back to life to give you a world of positives.
With all the connections from our past history and in light of what we as a country and people seem to be all about, we could use some of our old connections, and also our old ways of doing things.
I hope you get some time, or take some time and let a great painting kindle positive memories in your head." POETIC PONTIFICATION:
“As I sat here gazing into the scene before my eyes
I determine how far I have fallen from being wise
I thought of people, places, friends and family
And above all I’m thankful for all God’s given me.
I trust and hope you might just take some time.
Let the messages of a great painting fill your mind.”
“Be thankful, be careful and ponder all those relationships that have contributed to your life. Make a new connection as well and have a great week!
Also look for the next video in the “Paintings that Capture the Hearts Emotions” series coming out this week!”

" What you say and what you promise is important! If you watched the previously posted video you’ll see some astounding results. Did you catch this “78% of consumers trust peer recommendations”? How about you?
We have a country and a political systems being ripped apart by greed, self interest and political affiliation. We have over 50% divorce rate in the “Christian Church” because lying to God was easier than trusting him and working it out. We have Chinese and Canadian companies who got over a BBBillion dollars of Stimulus money meant for this country and given by US Tax payers. We have two foreign wars going on in countries that can’t govern themselves and don’t want us there. We are sending aid to foreigners and have forgotten about the, elderly, homeless and starving children in America.
We have more ways to contact individuals then there are households in America. Yet with all that we have forgotten our most important relationship, the relationships with family and friends, and the relationship with other human beings. We have replaced prayer with none, talk to our relatives with the social media outlets or not at all and we build superficial true faceless relationships daily.
It’s no wonder people need great paintings that engage and capture their heart’s emotion and give them a positive frame of reference." POETIC PONTIFICATION:
“Life’s moving so fast I don’t know where it went
What I had, I thought I had, wasn’t really sent
Where I’ve gone and what I’ve done added to my days
A lot of empty feelings and a lot of misguided ways
But here I am happy in His will, doing as He pleased
Painting Paintings that give the heart a squeeze!”
“Word of mouth, pass it on, ask someone to read and comment. Live each day as if it is your last because it very well could be. And, most important, know where you are going and who’s waiting and what kind of relationship you have with Him. Other than that, nothing else matters, nothing!!”
