i am born of the light. i rose from its foams, and i shall return to its depths.
WARNING:
death shall come on swift wings to anyone who dare disregard the sanctity of my territory.
Little Light got her pseudonym from her real name, the irish form of helen [greek] and evelyn [germanic] which means light.
she likes to think of herself as a stout little phoenix. she is an artist at heart but also writes because she believes that is how she can help shape history.
she claims to have the gift of seeing and prides herself in her ideas. if she were a book character, she would be scout finch.
when once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your
eyes turned upward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return. - leonardo da vinci (1452-1519)
we are not born all at once, but by bits; the body first, and the spirit later. our mothers are racked with the pains of our physical birth; we ourselves suffer the longer pains of our spiritual growth. - mary antin
i have often dreamed, of a far off place
where a hero's welcome, would be waiting for me
where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face
and a voice keeps saying, this is where i'm meant to be
i'll be there someday, i can go the distance
i will find my way, if i can be strong
i know ev�ry mile, will be worth my while
when i go the distance, i'll be right where i belong
down an unknown road, to embrace my fate
though that road may wander it will lead me to you
and a thousand years, would be worth the wait
it might take a lifetime but somehow i'll see it through
i won't look back, i can go the distance
and i'll stay on track, no, i won't accept defeat
it's an uphill slope, but i won't lose hope
till i go the distance, and my journey is complete
but to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
for a hero's strength is measured by his heart
like a shooting star, i will go the distance
i will search the world, i will face its harms
i don't care how far, i can go the distance
till i find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms
i will search the world, i will face its harms
till i find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms

pre-birthday anxiety
tomorrow is memorial day, and it's my birthday! it means all of america will celebrate with me!
seriously, there is no better birthday treat than having a long weekend to yourself, and then going on a trip to the big apple to see lady liberty. i'm told the celebration is bigger in the capital, so we are going there, too. i might even celebrate my birthday in a cemetery where the soldier-heroes were buried. very ironic, and very nationalistic for a birth day, no?
and yes, i am turning 22 this year. QUE HORROR!
the bonfire was lit at 03:11 pm

little light May 30, 2007 09:51 PM PDT oo, nakita ko ang canal street, and i did take the subway. di ako nakapanood ng broadway play, though.
