I know I've been dead to dA, but I appreciate the love I continue to get here. I wouldn't be the writer I am today if it wasn't for this incredible community.  Just because you may not see me around as much doesn't mean I have forgotten. I will forever be grateful to every one of you. For every favorite,  every watch, every encouraging word and especially for every critique.  My love of writing has grown and matured in so many ways because of dA.

From the bottom of my heart,  thank you.


And please nominate 'The Legend of the Sacred Warriors.' 😸

Peace Daniel Gandy -
August 25th 2001 - May 6th 2017 (6:58pm)
Saturday night my Prince,  my Guardian Angel,  my Danny-san left this earth to spend the rest of eternity in Heaven.
 
On the thirteenth of April Peace had a blood clot that was due to his heart murmer.  The clot went to his rear and he became pryalized because of it. When I first brought him in the Vet gave him less than a 30% of him surviving.

Peace was a fighter though, and because of his strong determination to live we shared three more beautiful weeks together.  Though he couldn't walk on his hind paws he didn't allow it to stop him. He dragged himself all over his room. The Vets were amazed at his spirit,  and at how well he was improving.  Aside from losing weight.




Saturday morning before work everything was fine. He ate his breakfast,  drank his water.
When I got home around fourish he had taken a turn for the worse. He could barely lift his head and I could tell from the look in his eyes and his barely audible meow that he was too tired to fight anymore.
I laid down next to him,  wrapped my arms around him and begun to cry.
My mom and brother took my nieces and nephew out to a pizza place but I stayed behind.  
Once they left I carried Peace onto the bed and I cried as I talked to him.

I thanked him for loving me these last fifteen years and ten months.  I thanked him for always watching over me, and always lending his fluffy white chest to rest my head into and for soaking in my tears. He would give me the most loving kisses to my cheeks and forehead.  I thanked him for being loyal,  kind, loving,  supportive to and of me.  I thanked him for always fighting so hard for me.  I told him he didn't have to fight any longer for me. He could rest and find true Peace in Jesus' arms. He did both his father and grandpa proud for loving me with such unconditional devotion, the way his grandfather  (Angel) taught his father (Hope) and the way Hope taught Peace. Their legacy of love shaped me into who I am today.

I stared into his glazing eyes, telling him over and over and over again how very much I love him. That I wouldn't leave him, that I would stay by his side no matter what.  
I prayed to God that He would show mercy on Peace, that he wouldn't suffer, that he wouldn't have to fight any longer.  That Peace would be rewarded for his life well lived. I begged. I asked that my dad would be able to be with him again.

Finally his heart started to give out...he had a small heart attack (I believe ) while in my arms. I clung to him, my arm wrapped around him, with my hand  pressed to his chest. With each convulsion I begged God to make it quick... I begged Him not to let my boy suffer...

I finally started crying in tongues  (something I haven't done since my dad's death) for five or so minutes, Peace ceased one more time before  God painted a magnificent image in my head. Of my dad in Heaven with Hope, Angel and Faith (his grandma) and in their midst was Jesus with Peace in His arms.

New tears flooded and i knew he had passed. My best friend... the one soul who could read and understood me the best had drawn his last breath.

After a while I pulled away long enough to look at his face,  to make sure he wasn't still breathing.  As I did I saw the widest smile on his face. To the end he knew his mama loved him with every beat of my heart. He knew that I would have done anything to fight alongside him. But as we promised each other a couple of weeks ago. That the moment he decided he couldn't do it anymore all he had to do was tell me. Saturday night he told me.

And I praise God that I was there with him during the whole thing.

After my dad died my heart shattered,  now all those shattered fragments are nearly all lost to the emptiness.  This pain....this is so indescribable. ..

Same as with my dad. I wouldn't trade away this pain for anything.  Because my dad and Peace loved me with an unconditional,  selfless kind of love that very few ever see.

Peace was a handsome orange and white tabby tom, born as a single kit in mother's litter.  Before his eyes were even open, his mom would hide him in a crowded closet full of boxes. All I had to do was call his name and that tiny, blind kitten would wiggle his way out of his hiding spot straight to my voice.

Our bond. Like the bond of his father and I, went beyond human understanding.  No we did not both speak the same language,  but our hearts always did.

Again my life has been forever torn, but I thank God for every day with my Danny boy.

I love you Peace, with everything I am.
Love on papa for me. </3

Hi there!

2 min read
Hey there, have I been missed lately?

So I have been VERY VERY inactive on here for quite a while now. Sorry to all my dA pals for not spamming you with favs like I used to do.. ;)

Here is Brief catch up on my life-

First off, I WON NANOWRIMO AGAIN LAST NIGHT! My fifth straight year doing this amazing contest and my fifth straight year of winning it. With a full time job it was not easy but I did! It was not as hard as last year by any means though, last year was the toughest...because of the theme of my novel and then because of my mom going to the hospital. This year was better by far.

Speaking of job, I have been a waitress for four months now. Strangely it has SOARED BY.

I am currently fostering another pup, his name is Aashish and he is a nine month old German Shepherd dog, I've had him two weeks now and he has a possible adopter going to meet him this weekend.

Life, though having a new job has given me a little bit of purpose and distraction, I am in no way better than I was last year. The loss of my dad still crushes me under its weight, the pain I feel has not dimmed or lessened... if I would allow myself to, I would cry every single day from the hole inside of me, but I can't so I don't...I just force the tears back (mostly). Some days my mind still fools me into thinking he will walk through those doors again and I can run into his arms. Then I remind myself that will never happen, not until I am reunited with him in Heaven....

ANYWAY....
I really want to encourage myself to return to dA and get at least a little more active. Who would want that to happen?


How has everyone been?

This is a special feature for the winners of the 'Awareness of the arts, Visualize our dreams' contest.
So without further ado, here they are.

First place goes to

JoaRosa and roseshaveThornes for this collaborated pieces.
These two artists brought to life a glimpse into several ideas of what dreams could appear to be for different people. Maybe for each of us everything is truly possible?




Second place goes to:

WDWParksGal and inknalcohol for this beautifully collaborated pieces.
The visual to me is absolutely beautiful. It paints the image of the true essence of what dreams should look like, full of hope and vigor, life and truth. It leaves with me the taste that we should all believe in this idea of something more beautiful and whole. Something we need to protect. I also love how peaceful it is to gaze at this piece.

Third place goes to:

sugar-vs-art and C1nderellaMan for their collaborated pieces,
All I can really say is that the poem really fits the visual. 

Genises IIMy routine was infested,
my foreseen was arrested,
my children, they attested,
my mentality's decline.
My up time filled with drab,
my down time filled with flab,
my wind chime hailed a cab,
and sipped on too much wine.
Exhausted from the week,
some relaxation seek,
lulled to a fitful sleep,
by telly's fickle glow.
I dreamed my mind was filled
with psychedelic pills
that swirled and sapped my will
and drained my mindful flow.
I dreamed my swollen head,
a pitcher full instead;
tipped to the side it bled
and spilled onto the floor.
The liquid seeped and spawned,
distilled a thoughtful pond,
a magic cleansing balm,
that soothed into my pores.
Much later I awoke,
my stressful fever broke,
my daughter gave a poke,
concern was in her eyes.
I sat straight up alert,
I gasped and then I blurt!
The carpet was a spurt
of multi-colored dyes!
