  1. Bonjour

    In essence the human spirit is the strongest matter ever created – who created it is a matter of faith. I for one believe that it transcends human understanding- so l try not to ponder this complex question to frequently and let everything take a naatural course.

    Regards

  3. Thank you also for the follow, this is simply to inform you that my post is a bilingual one. So if you get an Italian poem, please be patient, an English one will soon follow. I’m doing my best to keep things balanced 🙂

  8. Thanks Emma. Liking Izabel Goulart, the most beautiful woman on the planet, is not difficult at all. It’s also fascinating getting to know the person in the photographs through your blog. She had a better breakfast than I did this morning. 🙂 Best wishes ~

  11. As a new Spikey, you’ve joined a growing clan of folk known to be followers of Uncle Spike 🙂

    Thank you… I really appreciate that as I for one, know how many interesting and entertaining blogs are out there.

    My aim is to deliver an eclectic offering of posts, from my ‘point n shoot’ attempts at photography, to the sharing of my travel adventures since the 70′s, as well as day to day happenings on the farm. Oh, plus a few observations on life as I see it. Of course, if you have any suggestions for me, I’d love to hear from you, serious; email me.

    In return, I promise not to be overbearing with perhaps 2-3 posts a day tops. But if you are at a loose end one day, maybe you’ll enjoy trawling through some of my older stuff too. I have added plenty of categories to help in said digging process.

    Thanks again for your vote of confidence, particularly from your good self, a media ‘expert’ 🙂 and hope you have a great day…

    • Hi Jann.
      Yes, I thought your explanation of the creative process to be excellent. As you said on your blog, “When you add curiosity to your routine, your attitude towards the mundane shifts towards magic.” Finding that magic in the mundane opens up a lot of doors. Along with your art, I always find your blog to be informative and interesting as well. Thank you.

  37. Hi Maverick — thanks for visiting and following New Earth Paradigm. I find the above Einstein quote reminds me of my mother, who was passionately curious about everything in her world and did her utmost to share it with me and my sister. I seem to have retained quite a bit of that passion for exploring my world. Curiosity is a powerful force that draws us forward into newness. Blessings, Alia

  38. Maverick thanks for supporting me and my blog over this past year, I admire your photo’s as it’s just not something I am passionate about, but your photo’s show such passion. I am a College Grad with a BA in Tech Mgmt, no work, so I am changing my focus of my blog to Intuitive Guidance Counselor and hope to spring new work. I know it’s not something all will be interested in, but I hope to spark interest. I have a face condition so I won’t show it…..but with new videos to do….I hope it brings new interested individuals.

    • Thank you desperateramblings. The magic is in the mystery or is it the mystery in the magic? LOL. Originally I was just checking out WP and had no predisposition to blog. Then I got these creative urges and started to learn how to take a picture . Thank you for following and hopefully I’ll continue to evolve into whoever I am. 🙂 Best of luck to you as well!

  43. Hi , I have nominated you for The Creative Blogger Award! I bet you are quivering in excitement… or perhaps you might be hitting your head against a wall repeating the phrase “Not another award, not another award!” You don’t have to accept this award, but I would love for you to pop over to my blog and come celebrate! There will be imaginary champagne, disco balls and a drumming cat! What more could one want? Hehe.
