On the discovery that life isn’t like the movies…

we all stop
to take a breath
of reality

sometimes I'm too tired
to breathe...

is it breathing that tires you
or living to survive

surviving to live...

isn't your life up to you how it is lived
like the choice of breathing bad or good air

It can leave you feeling deflated...

Oh, and must say that I absolutely LOVE this painting...

hopefully an inhale will arrive...
the painting is part of a series...

Inhaling is magic ... scents are some of the strongest triggers to memories ... or building them.

I must go look at your works again ... this one speaks...

I first realised that life wasn't
like the movies when I got up
and left the room and it followed
me...

Don't you hate when that happens...

surrealism never occurred to me!

And this is what must be done at times...a pause...and a deep breath..helps center! Enjoyed!

precisely...

... and discovered that life is much more!
So wise, J..

This is a moment of thought perfectly captured in words. I like your style mate

Thanks for the encouragement!
