Innovators - The Rainmaker

The second video is the Rainmaker, This is an amazing story of an innovator, sadly Innovation and pleasing people doesn't always go hand-in-hand, However no-one could deny that he wasn't successful. maybe just too successful, but then nature is a fickle thing and controlling it? well that's a lot to expect.

The Line

I missed Armistice day this year, so this is a bit late. Many of us had Grandfathers that fought in WWII, some of us served during difficult times, This is for all who wore a uniform and for those that paid the ultimate sacrifice.

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them."

Taken from: For the Fallen - Laurence Binyon (1869-1943)

Who am I

If I know where I have been, I have a better idea of where to go. Everything that has happened, both good and bad and everything in between makes us who we are, for better or worse, Its about acceptance, accepting who we are helps us to accept others - just a thought.

A Kiss

The words say it all

TheBlackNaves Semicolon

This is mine - it has different meanings for me, I fight depression on a daily basis. I also have a very special daughter (She is my step-daughter and I love her as my own) She is a Special needs child, who is almost 19, and has Williams Syndrome. I have heard people refer to "her problem" I don't believe she has a problem. She is who she was made to be and everywhere she goes, she takes light with her. 

I have seen her bring joy into peoples live's just because she loves people, loves talking to people and has no preconceived notions or judgments, A young girl who just loves being with and among people, the joy and happiness she spreads to people she comes in contact with, is a gift that not many people have.

To you sweetheart, you are a light in a world that often forgets what it is to just accept others, enjoy their company and love.

Please follow the links on the side called TheBlackNaves Semicolon for more information and check out: Semicolon Tattoo for an explanation and meaning behind the tattoo. 

I would like to set up a page with semicolon photos if anyone else is interested in sending similar pics of their own with an encouraging byline, Even if you don't have a tattoo, use a marker and wear it for a day, that would be pretty awesome, I will add a page under 'TheBlackNaves Semicolon' and call it "The Story that never ends;" All personal details will remain strictly anonymous.

Midnight Sky

A realization of life, it was the beginning of acceptance and change

The Wind in the Grass

The mountains are an amazing place to spend time, the sheer enormity against one's 'smallness' really helps to put everything into perspective. Its a place of reflection, a place to gather one's self and a place to talk to God.

I don't visit as much as i used to, I need to change that. 

Untouchable

When realization bites home and you know there is nothing more that can 

be done. When I look back I am still amazed at how quickly time passes

Life and Love and all of that!

This was a dark place to be, realizing some hard truths and still trying to hold on. The hands were starting to slip already,  just the fall left. Looking back I realized it's like trying to find your way in the dark with a blindfold

A Whisper of Silence

Dreaming

It all started way back in 1999, trying to understand what was happening, I started writing things down. They are unsophisticated a bit raw and emotive, this was the first. and they are what they are.

These are my memories of the future, which are the ideas of an ordinary man.
