St. Patrick's Day
We all know that when three-leaf clovers come out, it's St. Patrick's Day. This Irish holiday is always celebrated on March 17th, which is the day that Saint Patrick died. He was
a missionary way back in the 4th century who converted the Irish to Christianity.
St. Patrick's Day - The History
Saint Patrick was born around 385 AD in the United Kingdom. His real name is believed to be Maewyn Succat (he took on Patrick, or Patricus, after he became a priest). When he was 16, he was kidnapped by a group of Irish
raiders and sold into slavery in Ireland. During his six-year captivity as a shepherd, he began to have religious visions and found strength in his faith. He finally escaped to France and became a priest - and later a bishop. When he was about 60 years old, Saint Patrick returned to Ireland to spread the Christian word. He used the shamrock, which resembles a three-leafed clover, as a metaphor to explain the Christian concept of God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit).

St. Patrick's Day - An Irish Holiday?
The first St. Patrick's Day parade didn't take place in Ireland, but actually in New York City on March 17, 1762. Now, over 100 US cities have St. Patrick's Day parades.
New York should be called the Big Shamrock instead of the Big Apple because their parade usually puts the rest of them to shame.
St. Patrick's Day - Did U Know?
· Green is associated with St. Patrick's Day because it is the color of
spring, Ireland and the shamrock.
· Leprechauns are also associated with St. Patrick's Day, although the only reason they are is because they're Irish. Leprechauns are usually
mean little creatures - with the exception of the Lucky Charms guy.
· People give Saint Patrick credit for chasing all the
snakes out of Ireland. The truth is that snakes are not indigenous to Ireland.

eagles


the reason i chose the eagle as the picture to go along with my paragraph about my apartment is that it is so distinct. it's coloring is so perfect. it's one bird you can really spot really easily.it's wing span and the way it glides through the air is something to see. there is quite a large population of eagles in b.c. i think more or less they are a north american bird. i don't know if they are an endangered species but i think they are protected. i think the eagle feeds on small rodents. i haven't seen too many eagles in the wild. a lot of companies use the eagle as part of their logo. i don't know for sure but i think native people view the eagle as part of their spiritual beliefs. another reason i chose the eagle as part of my paragraph is that it looks so strong. i think the eagle is a sign of independence.

THIS IS ME....HELLO

I am older then you think.
I never lie about my age I am courageous and fearless not out of stupidity but from fear itself.I have aged well...I have collected all I need to move onto the next challenge in life. My body has had the experience of life ...it has given life and in turn I have gave it many battles to concure Now I am alone and I have no one to show me the way. It is only me left to follow the shadow of trueth. I can only move forward as time ticks on...and see what comes next....

A Creative Thought Bubble




When all is well,... you are in a creative mood,.... you start breathing shallow and loud...you look at this picture...this is how I feel... I rest.

The Blurrrrrs




The Blurrrrrs - Dazzle, blind, blear, dim sightedness, darkness.
State between worlds

Setting Time as in time line in life

State of beinging.

Searching for that feeling of beinging.

Shadow Bear comes forth in disguise ...feeling a huge lose (innocence ) could be anything a lost finger, a lost pencil,,,etc.


Shadow Bear is there....you see blurrss...it begins with.....blurrs here....the violent part all hell breaks out you hear screems, you see people hitting others (blurrs) you see and hear screems (Blurrs) and tears,,, you see teeth being punched out of of someones face. You see blood all over and you know it is not your blood...but you really don't know?....(Blurrss) maybe you hit someone?.... all you know, is it is not over.,...(Blurrrrs) even when the silence comes you know it is not over. You go numb like a switch just turned you off....(blurrs) and another person immerges from you and performs the next phase you need to get through what comes next...(blurrrrrs). You want to turn off (The Blurrs) and go to sleep and wake up and it will all be a bad dream...but that is not the way it goes.The Blurrrs are reality.

It all seems sooo real....or like a dream....I wish I could sleep.
