Robin Williams dies at age 63!

Robin Williams dies at age 63 of suspected suicide
I hate that headline! 
"It should be today the world loses a great actor at 63!''

As an actor he always portrayed such delightful, likable characters on screen. 
Actor/comedian known for his great talent and improv skills that could make you laugh all day at his antics.

The world loved him for his work and he will be genuinely missed. 
Though, a lot of the focus and speculation seems to be on how he left this world instead of what he initially and purposefully brought to the world, which is HAPPINESS
What a treasure to have to hold, even for just a moment. It's a gift he gave to us, laughter and happiness.

I always enjoyed seeing him act while growing up, anywhere from a fearless Peter Pan, a man disguised as an old lady in order to see his kids to a kid with a disease that would make him age rapidly. If you're familiar with his work, than you know I am of course speaking of his featured films HOOK, Mrs. Doubtfire and JACK. I loved many more of his films that would keep me entertained as a kid, such as Alladin, Jumanji, and Flubber to name a few more. The list goes on and on...really.

I will remember him as he was and nothing less. 
Today the world lost an irreplaceable gem, a damn fine actor and a kind soul. 
"Be at peace oh, captain, my captain!"


How will you choose to remember him?

Why I Love Etsy.com

Etsy.com is a wonderous place that I love to shop because everything you find on there is made by HAND. It's a community of good people sharing their many arts with us. 
You can purchase a range of items on the site including clothes, jewelry, bags, art, and home decor. I can personally speak of buying jewelry from there though.. 
I have purchased earrings and leather wrist cuffs. Here's my experience...

The first cuff I bought from ETSY was a simple black wrist cuff made with real interior grade leather.
Here's a link and a picture of what it looks like https://www.etsy.com/transaction/40908422 

 OnceAgainSam sold it to me and her shop is filled with many one of a kind beautiful creations!

Here's the link where you can find her shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/OnceAgainSam 

My second purchase from Etsy was inspired by the wrist cuff that Johnny Depp wears. 
It's a two inch watch cuff crafted from the highest quality top grain leather. It was a gift for my birthday two years ago and I don't go a day without wearing it. I absolutely love it <3

The Leather Wrist1 is who I purchased it from and his shop is filled with many amazing leather cuffs just like mine!

Should you try to resurface old feelings?..

Well my answer is I don't think so.. because when I tried, I was 
re-assured why I had to part from the relationship in the first place.

If you let too much time alter what you had, then there's no going back to how things were.

See because that person that you thought you knew has changed indefinitely over the years and almost completely forgotten about you..whether you stepped out of their life, what ever the situation was or is..

I must be naive to think the person still gives a shit about anything. Maybe I'm damaged and don't know how to fully let go forever.
Forever's a long time.. I don't think I can.

It's difficult anyway. It's like losing someone you love, you don't want to move on from that..you can't. It will stay with you forever and I'm just realizing that now.

but..

There's possibly a loophole!

I believe if you can learn to love each other the same way you did before, there's room for the relationship's to co exist. That plan is not bulletproof, so make sure to tread wisely if you think you will be stepping in that direction anytime soon.

warning: This post is based upon a friendship.

Please leave your thoughts below. Is this something you've experienced before? How did you deal with it?




Helping those who are less fortunate




Be grateful for what you have and if you have plenty, then you should give, instead of always taking.

To quote my favorite physicist
Albert Einstein
 "A life living for others is a life worth living."

Watch as the homeless give more with the less they have!

They know what it feels like to have NOTHING, to struggle in a bad situation, it's as if they don't want people to feel the way they have felt before.. so they help when they see someone in their shoes.

This is a moving and heartfelt message that everyone can take something from. 

Be Kind and pass kindness along to those that aren't as fortunate as you.. because you have it easier even when you think that you don't.

Realize that if you woke up today and drank clear clean water, than you my friend are beyond fortunate.

I can bearly believe it.. a bear saves a crow!

What can we learn from animals?

Can we learn that they don't love or care differently than us?

 There's a lot we can learn from animal behavior, so take note.

They are an extension of us for sure!

Animals are capable of Love and when they notice something that needs their help, they'll do exactly that!

 Watch as a bear saves a crow from drowning, then leave your own perspective and thoughts in the comments.

 As far as my point of view goes.. I think the bear intentionally wanted to help the bird. Now does such an aggressive mammal know how to be gentle when his typical lunch is in his mouth, no. There's a reason the bear didn't act on his instinct and eat the bird though. 

What do you think?
