Smiles-n-Hugs

Greetings everyone! ♥

"To show we care, there is no cost
And neither is anything lost,
But so much to gain with just a little of
And it's all because, when we give Love.
Hugs say more than our words can say
When Love is what we wish to convey."
~ Artsieladie Quote ♥

Smiles and hugs to give are free,
So no need to selfish be.
Give a hug with a smile,
Give a hug to bring a smile,
To another's heart,
To another's face.
Spread love and kindness EVERY place.

Since smiles and hugs nothing cost,
There's all to gain with nothing lost.
So be generous for the more you give,
The more and happier hearts will live.
Smiles and hugs, the magic of,
Is because they're made of Love.

Making both such happy places!"

~ Quotes by Artsieladie

Romantic-Setting

Greetings everyone! ♥

I'm sorry to my readers that I haven't posted in my blogs for awhile. Every year is a bit tough for me to get through, beginning with Thanksgiving, through Christmas, and then throughout the month of January.

I lost my beloved Mother eleven years ago, January 18, which makes this time of year especially difficult for me. Regardless of what anyone may say, a profound loss never gets any easier to cope or live with. You just have to find a way to carry on without them and for the most part you do, but not without moments and times that are more difficult than the rest.

However, besides this, one year ago on January 28th, 2017, I also lost my beloved sister to cancer. She lived a clean, honest, faithful to God, life. She didn't smoke, drink, or engage in an unhealthy living style whatsoever. She was a modest, reserved, studious, intellectual type with integrity and valued human values. Yet, she was afflicted with the dreaded and horrific disease of cancer.

As I will and often do when I'm going through an emotional overload, I have been lost on my computer with my art. Not only is being creative at the core of my being with art and writing, it is also very therapeutic for me.

In the past I used to be able to work on my computer and be online at the same time. So I didn't usually get lost lost while delving into being creative. Now, however, and since October 4th, 2015, when the computer programmer (who has been stalking me and invading my privacy since at least the beginning of 2007, hacking into my computers and phones) destroyed my computer's harddrive, I now do not put my computer online, making spending time on it creating a separate activity from my online time. Besides this, anything I do on my computer I have to move onto a flashdrive and plug it into then, my Chromebook. Because of this inconvenience I tend to work on my computer until I get a considerable amount done before I follow through as I've explained. Often I don't even realise I've been on my computer a long time without also going to my Chromebook to go online. When I do take a brief break from my computer, it's usually because my daughter or my sister has brought something or wants to bring something to my attention. Even then though, if I'm heavily involved with an artistic endeavor or endeavors, my stay online is brief because of wanting to get back to it/them.

Working with/on my computer is especially enjoyable for me now since Mr. Spy On Me can no longer access my computer to see and watch everything I'm doing on it as he used to do, which he proved to me beyond all doubt when I had convinced him I needed to re-create a particular event back in 2009, which implicated him and his 'extra curricular activities' related to his 'watching/stalking/playing his mind games' with me. When he thought I "needed to" re-create the event, he proceeded to do a number of things to prevent me from fulfilling my mission, which in turn proved to me that he KNEW what I was doing on my computer, thereby incriminating himself even more.

A close male friend of mine had asked me to carry out the project because he suspected Mr. Spy, if he was guilty of invading my computer, would inevitably prove he was. ..And Mr. Spy did exactly this. So then I wrote where I knew Mr. Spy would see what I wrote that my friend was smarter than he. This hurt Mr. Spy's ego and so then he had to prove "he" was the smarter one and then proceeded to access my computer and move a file from one folder to another, a brand new one I had just created, and then back to it's original place, AND this while my friend and I watched in complete astonishment. Mr. Spy HAD TO PROVE to me what all he is capable of doing, HAD TO PROVE I was wrong about my friend being smarter than him. But in so doing, he volunteered more incriminating evidence that he was hacking into my computer. Arrogance makes its host do really stupid things!

I dare say that most people who use a computerized device, such as a computer or a cell phone, are completely unaware of how vulnerable the majority of us users are for someone with extreme, extensive computer technology skills to gain access to us, everything about us, through the tech devices we use. But NOT I! Mr. Spy has taught me impeccably well, has burned me indescribably so, and I've become incredibly, acutely aware of just how unconscionably malicious a person can be through the wrongful use of computer technology. I can't hate such a person because it's been made crystal clear how pathetic his life must truly be to engage himself in such vile, detestable behaviour. I can only feel sorry for such an individual who apparently believes his life, his self, is so worthless he has to resort to such drastically low measures as his purpose in life.

To add another delay in my being online, I was sickened on February 11th by drinking 3-4 ounces of a brand of buttermilk I've never had before from Kate's Creamery. I'm just now starting to feel better. Hopefully, I will be posting more often. However, my online presence does not and will not ever take precedence over my life offline, my real life. As much as I enjoy having and posting on my blogs, my life and people in my life whom I Love dearly, come first, is and always will be my primary focus and concern. Hence, I post on my blogs as "my life permits". Be safe and God bless everyone! ♥

"When Love is in the air with feelings electrified, Romancing of two hearts cannot be denied."
~ Quotes by Artsieladie

Eleven-Twenty-Two

Greetings everyone! ♥

"It's easy to hate those who give us grief,
Allow hate to steal from us, like a thief,
Our peace and joy Love doth bring
To our hearts to in harmony sing."

So, what's today? It's month eleven, 
The year two thousand and ten plus seven
And the day, well, it's twenty-two;
I've not forgotten the day or who.

How can a person so brilliant of mind
Be fooled by their ego and act unkind;
Cause resentment and hatred for what you do?
Yet, in my heart still I do NOT hate YOU.

I can only hope one day you'll see
There's beauty in you that eludes not me.
Although your thorns cut deep and tear,
Inside your heart, there's a rose in there.

It's where the real is in you and all the good,
But your ego's pride keeps this misunderstood.
Your self confidence has been sadly replaced
With arrogance, leaving humility all erased.

I cannot understand nor can I see,
Why, in the shadows, you keep on stalking me.
I am nothing special, just a rather plain Jane,
A too boring subject to intrigue your brain.

I write a lot about character in my words of rhyme,
And poetry's not your thing, a waste of your time?
I believe in God; Who I am Gifted by.
You believe not; His existence you deny.

Your best friend online, or so you did claim,
Said we'd never go well together to share a common aim.
You've banned and you've blocked me, yet you like to peek;
You listen to my conversations, yet to me you will not speak.

You like to call me a crazy liar and say I am paranoid,
Yet, when I ask you questions with data, answering, you avoid.
Instead, you become belligerent and cruelly accusatory;
Threaten me to shut me up should I tell the true story.

A close male friend of mine you resent and despise.
You sent him an email to lessen me in his eyes.
I guess you thought you could drive a wedge
Between us and in your favour, you'd have an edge.

But why an edge would you want, I ask;
Why concern yourself with such a task?
You've claimed straight out, emphatically,
You have no interest in this person, me.

His words of affection for me you cannot stand
When said in my guestbook, then me, you banned
With a slanderous banner to levy on me, the blame;
To punish me royally, to ruin, destroy my name.

Then because I said you can't control who's in my life,
You decided to cause me some more stress and strife
By destroying my computer, it's central brain.
God only knows what you thought you would gain.

When you were accused, your words I defended,
Knowing your accuser would be greatly offended
And would then turn their attack on me directly,
Because your words I understood them correctly.

When your online best friend shot you down,
Behind your back hoping upon you, I would frown,
Though you caught her red handed, gave her payback,
Against me you stood for her stabbing your back.

I've seen your ugly; I've seen your worst,
Because you insist on placing it first.
Most would quickly and simply assume
That for good within, you have no room.

But I'm one of the few who'll dare to scale
A wall so high and thick where thorns prevail.
Most are discouraged at the dragon's gate,
An adventure too risky to investigate.

I've felt the burn of your venomous bite
For showing respect, treating you right.
I've felt the sting of your words so curt;
My reward for giving to you was only hurt.

I have plenty of reasons to for you feel hate,
But hatred isn't a trait I'll feed into or bait.
There's way too much hatred in this world we live.
So, if from me, it's hatred you want, I cannot give.

Instead, for you I'll hope and I'll pray
That the better in you shall win one day;
That some day your knowledge you'll use for good
And perhaps, remember that I knew you could.

Though only glimpses I've been able to see,
Through brambles and thorns to discourage me,
I know inside you, there's so much more
Worthy of beckoning for one to explore.

It's really so sad and pathetic to see
Someone waste their talent to lesser be,
While inside hidden is potential so great,
But trapped untapped in a dormant state.

It's so easy to forget how we commit treason
Against Love when there's plenty to give us reason
To be resentful and bitter and so unforgiving,
Yet, the Elements of Love bring us peaceful living.

Perhaps, one day in the mirror you will see
The best still within you and you'll set it free.
Then you'll no longer need to your true self, conceal;
Knowing true value in yourself is priceless to feel.

But today's your day to commemorate,
Your birth and with joy, celebrate.
In spite of yourself I do wish for you
All the best and in the coming year, through.

Halloween-Facebook-Covers

Greetings everyone! ♥

I have several Facebook pages besides a profile and I enjoy making Facebook covers for them, including covers with some of my quotes I've authored. These are Halloween themed covers I've been making.

If it seems like I'm here on my blogs sometimes and other times not, it's because I have my blogs as a hobby type thing, posting when I can and when other general responsibilities of life aren't consuming all of my time. Being creative, whether through art, writing, music, etc., is who I am; it's at the core of my being and I enjoy being creative immensely and it's when I feel most in my element.

Also, I used to be able to work on my computer and be active online simultaneously, allowing me to post 'as I completed something'. Now however, I can no longer ever since my computer was hacked two years ago, destroying the harddrive. So, now my creative time is separate from my online/posting time because my computer is no longer connected to the Internet for obvious reasons. I'm not about to give the computer programmer/stalker responsible for $3000 in damages another chance to destroy my computer's harddrive again. ♥

This is my very first digital work. I had just started to use a computer and the only program I had to use at the time was Paint. I created this using a mouse only, which is still all I use with my digital artworks. There's one other I did about the same time, which I have somewhere. Sometime later, I added the frame with PaintShop Pro, initially owned by Jasc and is now owned by Corel. ♥

Heart-Art

Hello all, from Artsieladie! ♥

"Heart Art"
When one is left speechless by beautiful pearls spoken,
When absent are the words adequate to show as a token
Of feeling humbled and honoured, with appreciation profound,
And totally overtaken by their sweet, melodic sound,
Then one must search, seek to find another, creative way
To express how touched their heart is, all to try and say.
When so delicious are the words, sweet cuisine for the heart,
One must express their elation from within their deepest part.

A thousand words, it's said, lies within a photo taken,
But within a work of art can be a message unmistaken
That words cannot say to describe what's in one's heart,
But only can be portrayed within one's work of art
And when is used the canvas, as well the paint and brush,
Is from the Vault of Love, only then can bring the rush
Of emotions, giving freedom to the passions deeply of,
What makes the heart beat faster, which only can be Love.
