Live and Learn.

Life is so interesting. The people I meet along my journey, enrich my understanding of my purpose here on earth. Whether the encounter is brief in passing or takes place over several months, even years of connections, my appreciation for everything I learn grows throughout time as I age. Ive learned to push away the evil but rejoice in the fact that I can eliminate it from my life. Ive learned to cherish the good, but Im wise enough to know that the great things in life can be so fragile, they can disappear in an instant. Life is good. I love all it brings, including the assholes and the angles. Which one are you?

My Advise To Eric

Move on, don't trust and when "the one" comes along, you will know.  That person will support you in all you do and love everything about you effortlessly.  Love just happens and if its not love, then its just fun to fill a void or to let the time pass till you meet "the one."  So build up your walls and turn off the emotions. Live life and live it well!

For My Muse

Please don't kiss me so sweet

it makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow

And please don't touch me like that

makes every other embrace seem pale and shallow

Please don't look at me like that

It just makes me want to make you near me always

What it's Like to Date a Capricorn Woman:

Deep inside, she is romantic and loving but it takes the right man to expose this. On the outside, she may seem like she does not care much for love. The Capricorn woman is perfect for the man who likes a challenge. It will take time to get closer to her, never make her rush into a relationship. Be patient because she is. Capricorn woman is very classy, upscale woman. You have to woo her and court her like a lady. Shower her with nice gifts (but not too expensive, she is a very conservative spender and expects you to be also). She will dominate and control the relationship but in her intriguing subtle way, let her take the lead, she won't steer you wrong! She will lead the relationship in the right direction because she is smart and practical. She will offer you a long lasting, real, loyal relationship with all the right ingredients for happiness.

Capricorn in a Nutshell:

Capricorns are very ambitious people, they always have something they are pursuing and they want their lives to be fulfilled and important. Capricorns are extremely patient and will wait a long time for something they want, when the opportunity arises, they will plan their steps carefully to others, they might appear hesitant but this is not true, they know that there is only one chance to succeed and they are filing together their information to take the proper steps to accomplish their goal with flying colors, not just second rate. Capricorns have a very active mind and strong powers of concentration. Capricorns like being in control of their surroundings and everyone in their life. Capricorns are very cautious but this only to survey the situation before leaping in, they will never make a hasty jump in. They accept change but introduce it slowly so they can get used to it and incorporate it into their life. Capricorns tend to see life in black or white, definitive's only. There are no gray areas for these are areas that are not understood and this makes Capricorn feel uncomfortable. They tend to be in control in a romantic relationship that way they are never vulnerable to another person.

"Look at what I found" he said.

"Grinding to the music,

The bass carries me away.

As the sweat rolls down my back

I begin to fade away."

I wrote this for a friend in 1999. He sent it back to me in an email the other day and said,

"I think you are the most sensual person I have ever known...probably will ever know. Damn artist."

"When she paints she sings with her hands." ~Rich Munnnich

Music plays a key role in the artistic process for Amanda Delight. When she hears a song that inspires her, she will play it over and over for hours on end while she paints. Amanda feels that musicians express them selfs in song the same way she does with paint. This series is a tribute to the talented people that have inspired her to create.

This is artist Danyl Geneciran, a talented singer-songwriter that inspired me to paint him. After viewing my live webcam as I painted him, Danyl asked me how much the painting was because he liked it and wanted to buy it. I told him, 

"Its not for sale!

Because im giving it to you!

Just promise me u will keep doin what you do!

God gave us both talents to share with the world!

Plus, Im glad you like it!"

To My Muse

Im real because of you...Jaded by experience and more wise for the future versions of you. - A.Delight

Marilyn

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." -Marilyn Monroe

Cheat Of The Week

Im thinking about starting a new website, called "Cheat of the Week" featuring the dirty married men that come into my chat and tell me all the sexual things they want to do to me. Im not down for that,

and I will expose you.

Here is this weeks feature.

While I was painting in my live web cam chat, this married man told me that his wife was gone for the night and wanted to have fun with me. Even after I told him to chill out several times and that I wasnt down for that. I even went on to tell him that I was going to put him on blast for doing so.

His poor wife. I hope she sees this!

To My Muse

Why did God bring me to you?

Because of you I cant sleep

I cant think

I feel like I cant breath.

You are so wonderful

Not for the car you drive 

Or the things in your life

But for who you are inside

I fell for you before I knew you

You "had me at hello"

and now I cant say "good bye"

I thought that you were too good to be true

and with everything

I should be convinced that you are not good enough

You took my heart 

and I want it back

Fun in the Sun

34 paintings on a nice summer afternoon!

Congrats!

I cant help or deny my sources of inspiration.

Just a Moment in Time

"I can't say it enough.  Other than that I don't know what to say.

Thank you Amanda for arriving out of nowhere.You are really emerging as someone good to have in my life."

HOPE: to want or expect something: to have a wish to get or do something or for something to happen or be true, especially something that seems possible or likely.

Ever hold your dreams at the tips of your fingers???

I do!

I Was Asked Today

"What are you looking for?" 

I dont know. I dont know much of anything these days. Im floating by in a stream of daily routines that bore me to no end.

 

I paint till I run out of canvas or ideas, which ever comes first. 

Im tired of men wanting one thing...and its not my brain.

Im sick of being alone, but I dont want anyone new. I dont want to hurt any more. 

I love life and I love being myself. Im stuck in limbo with no direction. The only direction I have is, knowing I need a change.
