I wish to light a candle for all the hurt in the world.
For my two dear friends that are hurting from the loss of love ones
for my friend that just lost her baby.
and for all the people that don't know what a true friend is.
I wish to light a candle for the senator.

A truth that hopefully will be recognized sooner than later. Welcome to Stories Space. It is always good to have new voices join our choir.
You can't get there from here, because when you get there you're still here and here is now there.

Those who have less than I... which at this point in time, in this country, is many.
All those children fighting cancer, and the families who support them, as well as those who have lost their fight.
All those 'round the world fighting poverty, living day to day on the love and/or hope they have.
Those with B.E.D., Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, EDNOS or any other eating disorder, losing to the whispers in their mind or slowly fighting to get their life back on track.

You are all on my mind and I would light a candle for you if I had a match... and about a billion or so candles smile Blessed Be heart

For little T. You would have been 9 years old today. In a few days time it will be you and your dads 5th anniversary yet it seems like it was just yesterday that I saw you both for the last time.

I'm lighting a candle for a dear friend, it's a shitty week for us both. I'm also lighting one for Al and T, who are creating havoc up there, and Matt, who must be exhausted running around after them.

11 years ago, Simon's life ended so tragically.
He was my mentor, my friend and a man like no other. Having him living on my doorstep, a man whom I was in total awe of since I was a little girl, was a dream come true. He inspired me to paint the wildlife that I do, and to be brave and use oils.. I can still hear him telling me that oils are the easiest medium, I was able to paint watercolour, so oils would be childs play. And, like everything, he was right.
His incredible humour, his wit, his sense of fun and adventure, his intellect and compassion, his unmatchable talent... they will never be gone. Simon left his mark on everyone who met him. His legacy lives on and I am so honoured to have known him.

Kupumzika kwa amani , rafiki mpendwa . Wewe wamekwenda lakini kamwe kusahaulika Mzee.

I'v never read a more beautiful ... or heartfelt ... tribute than what you've written here. Friendships such as this are truly rare and precious and especially so from such an early age. A part of him remains alive through your artwork. Create and *PAINT* on!

What an amazing man and an amazing family. And what an awesome legacy! And for what my humble opinion is worth AriesDragon, your art is a true part of that legacy and a great example of what he and his son want to express.
