A Comforting Thought

Trust. So often we seek it outside of ourselves. In places, people and or in ideals. This muse is dedicated to the challenge of those seeking trust outside of themselves. A humble shout out to the artist Shannon Wheeler, creator of Too Much Coffee Man, How To Be Happy, (and many other fine artistic endeavors). I first spotted his artistic work (TMCM) in a little comic store in Berkeley, California back in the mid 90's and as soon as I picked up that comic and mused at what I was seeing, I trusted in myself that the artist would indeed be brewing a fine blend of artistic wonders in the future.

Now if only Stephan Pastis would return my phone calls.

heehee yes, quite dusty indeed!

I think my house is trying to collect its own universe, or maybe Zi shouldn't have moved to the desert...

Love the poem, I am comforted.
