“I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to make sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.”

This fits me too perfectly! 🙂
Hi! It’s me. 🙂 I wanted to ask, would you be willing to launch a follow vine for me (pretty please?)
What is a Follow vine? Let me know how much time it would take and what it entails. 🙂
Well, what happens is this:
1. I post a ‘branch’ on your about page- a request for you to visit/follow my blog and ask you to extend the branch to two other wordpress users you know.
2. You visit/follow my blog then extend the branch to them and they visit and extend to others and the vine keeps growing.
3. We live happily ever after.
Bring order out of chaos,I love this phrase,it’s a rude awakening to a troubled mind, still in order you would speak.also the one quote from Richard Wright, it’s all very well stated that being human is still bring order out……….
I see we share two of the same things, I love Hab:2.2 and I am from Queens, Farrockaway. Most inspiring blog and post. Please to meet you.
Welcome to my writing and photography blog. Feel free to explore and comment on my various posts. Thank you for Following me.

Hi Deborah, we connected last week and it just occurred to me that I hadn’t checked out your About page and I’m so glad I took the opportunity to read it today. This is one of the most creative bios I’ve come across and I love the Marilyn Monroe quote (it’s one I wish I would have come up with).
Thanks Stephanae! So glad we are connected. Love that Marilyn Monroe quote! 🙂 When you get a chance please check out my photo blog: Roaming Urban Gypsy. I’m gradually moving my Cityscape snapshots over to this Photo Blog. http://roamingurbangypsy.com/2015/09/07/rambling-through-central-park/
Many Thanks.
Thanks Deborah, I’ll check out your photo blog as well. Are you on Google+ by any chance? I see quite a few photographers on there.
Yes I am on Google+ also. I’ve joined one or 2 photography communities with a very good response. Photography along with writing is another of my passions.
Well I really appreciate looking at beautiful photos. I wish I understood the technecalities of photography but it’s over my head. I’m out here on your photo blog right now.

Striking and fierce creative space you have. Love the revamp. And thank you so much for featuring me on the Blogs [you] follow. ♥
i think the quotes you chose did give us an insight at the person behind the blog. and they’re powerful quotes too.
Thanks. That’s an old blog post. So much time has gone by and so much has happened that many days I don’t know who or what I am anymore. Like most people I have my public face and my private face. Also since the troubles with hackers and trolls I no longer blog as often. I realize that I need to be on a digital diet for my own personal health and safety.
i don’t think people really change, i believe they evolve
Some people evolve. As for me I’ve changed since I’m not the same person I was 10 or 20 years ago. Evolution implies that you’ve grown into a better person. You’ve stepped up your game. I wouldn’t put myself in the evolution category. In my case change has caused me to go backwards instead of forward.
if evolution meant people/things got better, this world would have been paradise. I think evolution is the adjustment a person makes to fit life as it changes.
Well I will leave it at that. I’ve made many unwanted adjustments. Some people are better at handling changes in life and the resulting adjustments. I salute them. In the meantime I’m moving onto other things. Have a good day.
Hey, hope all is well. I haven’t been online often since last August. Getting back slowly.
Had à stroke. I no longer blog
Hi I had a stroke in 2019, colitis and Covid. I stopped blogging. I’m out of the game.
Oh my goodness… I am so sorry to hear that… How are you feeling now? Are you taken care of?
I’m gradually improving. It’s a slow process. I’m in a nursing home.
