Thank you all for reading

Thank you all for reading and commenting. I ask you to remember how easily we create heaven or hell for one another..... ....and there's only one person who knows the truth of our intent. Yet, it is only Love that has no intent and so no fallibility. It just is. ~Anna/Kailashana "People sometimes inquire what form of government is most suitable for an artist to live under. To this question there is only one answer. The form of government that is most suitable to the artist is no government at all." Oscar Wilde
