I am evolving I am a dreamer, a survivor, a realist. I prize the truth in all things even the bitter truth is far better in my eyes than a lie.I believe people come into our lives at the times they were meant to.These are a few facts about me in no particular order:). I love to write. I love to paint, mostly oils and acrylics and all done in abstracts. I love taking photographs and rarely travel outside my door without  my camera.I love fall and spring, the scent of lilacs-(my grandma wore this all the time) hot chocolate with marshmallows, strong coffee and cold pizza,My entire apartment is furnished with hand me downs, thift store finds and tag sale deals. I've managed to pull it all together to make my apartment quite cozy and my artistic side has lent itself to a pleasant looking place despite a mixture of styles and odd and ends.I was a volunteer for Hospice for 10 years.I am happy to comment on your works, please know that I strive to comment on the work only. I may even offer suggestions. As the author you have the final say in what you present of course and I respect that. I will not however lie. If  you can accept that then feel free to ask me what I think . I invite you to do the same with my writing as well.Happy writing all :)These are a few of my favorite quotes 
If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem..
The world breaks everyone and afterward many are stronger at the broken places.
Ernest Hemingway 

Peter McWilliams
Come to the edge,' he said.
They said, 'We are afraid.'
'Come to the edge,' he said.
They came.
He pushed them...
And they flew.
