"Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time... It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other."

Celebrate the anniversary of the best anti-autodestruction bit of poetry's author...

The anniversary of her own departure that is.
Before leaving, she penned the following savory witty words...

"Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live."

— Dorothy Parker,
American scribe, dead today, in 1967

Aye - we might just as well endure a while longer...
The Reaper wants to nab us soon enough as it is - and there is nothing more intellectually stimulating as well as all-around invigorating than denying a malicious adversary's pleasure!
Don't you agree?

: Name: Luminous (\ô/) Luciano™

Born in the Age of Aquarius, destined to seek out truths in many an art form, trained as a historian and a journalist but truly a prose-lover... Luciano is out to dispel any clichés and reinvent them all both to the tune of a little something called the truth as also to his own image - and being old-fashioned, he does not mind that distinction one infinitesimal tiny bit at all...! "There are two ways to spread the light; be the candle... or the mirror that reflects It." I have chosen to be the latter... okay? ~*~ "To be not only a seeker of light... but a dream weaver of light" ~*~ For as surely as the moon reflects the light from the sun, you and I can reflect the Light from Above - and be, indeed, the light of this world! ~*~*~*~ NOTE: THERE ARE COOKIES ~ from at least three parties~ ON ALL OF MY BLOGS! ~*~ accept it!

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
- Romans 10:9

The dead are more alive than we, the living, can ever hope to be.

Deaths In Publicity...

We always learn. We never stop learning - as long as we continue on our journey... I think in this life and afterwards - BOTH.

One more death from the world of publicity...

Forget about finding that perfect purse that matches your shoes, ladies;
or that perfect bow tie that will go with the tuxedo, boys ~
think about finding your fate - and faith - instead!

Until *The Day* Comes... Souls Will Depart... While We Remain ~ In This Mad World This Doomed World As long as we remain on this earth, though, we must keep communicating... ...and communing with one another - until the day we do so ~ on The Other Side
