Scientology Gets A Message…
THE conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic... Read More
The Ever Expanding Nature of Love
We are each of us angels with one wing, and we can only fly embracing each other. - Liciano de Crescenzo Love of all levels comes naturally to very young children – they laugh, smile, fully express awe and wonder at the world around them.

I so miss Lisbon…the people, the art, the energy. It was full of wide open love and laughter, with no... Read More
My Art…
Oh so very very true… Love is elemental, necessary, important even, but art, oh my god. Art is like that crazy boyfriend – hot, then cold, volatile, withholding, abundant, bitchy even. As much as he drove you nuts, you craved, needed, lusted for him. Art mirrors sexuality – first we start tentatively, gingerly attempting what we long for but aren’t sure how to do. Then we get a taste – oooh, such a sweet... Read More
