Foreword 🛸

ART inspires the spirit.
WRITING challenges the mind.
MUSIC soothes the soul.

I hope you understand my website. I’m “touched with fire”. At seventy two years old, I love to think and write… then burden others with my thoughts.😬 I’m mostly retired… wandering in wonder while pondering the yonder.😇 I’m not after anything with Ed’s ArtSite but enjoying my own Internet hobby.😎 It’s a tribute to God, family, and friends.❤️ But I probably enjoy it more than anyone.🤓

An engineer once told me that “better was the enemy of good enough”… But since I’m an obsessed artist, Ed’s ArtSite continues to be a work in progress. It’s shareable to everyone who can understand the word conundrum.

Some artwork might scare young kids. Please share responsibly. ❤️

I’ve been inspired… I’ve met a number of others who’ve overcome greater challenges… Like Laura F. who lost her family to mental illness then built one of her own. Her strength inspires others. And John P., who at six and blind wanted to become a race car driver. His spirit inspires bold dreams. And Josh V., who at twenty eight is battling brain cancer and has a very beautiful artist’s hand. He’s a hero in my book. And twelve year old Becca, who I met virtually over the internet. She’s Sean of the South’s blind friend who “leaps tall buildings” jumping into a swimming pool from the high board. She’s braver than me… and a lot of other folks.

People are inspiring when they overcome. ❤️

I’m freely sharing my thoughts thanks to those who fought and died before me. I’m sharing my work thanks to God’s good grace.🌴

Come visit with me and let’s share a feeling that Someone and something good is at work in our somewhat chaotic midst.

🌴Sharing is at the heart of Ed’s ArtSite.🌴
🌴Love is at the heart of sharing.

I’m no angel. I’m not sent from God on a mission. I’m a wacky doodle mutt with a delusion. If we love, our conundrums resolve. If we judge and hate, we make conundrums. It’s just common sense. God tells us that all the time through each other. 💙

I worry sometimes that I’m too confident about what God wants of me. I think He just wants me to love. While He was walking around on the earth, He told us that the least would be first… referring to who gets to go to Heaven. I think that means that higher and mighty behavior may be last or not at all. I have no earthly idea other than God says to love one another like He showed us.

I know you love. I love too. Maybe you want the world to be a better place to live but don’t know what to do about it exactly, like me. You could write down your thoughts for what you think would make a difference. That’s what I’ve been doing. But don’t short change yourself for feeling helpless to make that difference. Because even if you help just one person, you’ve made a productive positive difference. Especially if that one person is yourself. We have to start somewhere. ❤️

… Love is the wonderful stitcher of differences. When we look to each other with our heart, we can see and feel common ground at our feet. – excerpt from Unique ✍️

🌴 Love works when nothing else does.🌴

💕 Making a friend can start a great family. 💕
