Open Your Heart – I’ll Make You Love Me – Madonna
What is it about life that makes us run and hide?
Love is so many things. I love Art! Love is disapearing and thinking beyond what is inside your your minds reach.
It takes us to a different place. Where we are truly free. What do you love?
We all love many things. Love means a lot to different people. Love is just about being happy within your own skin and appreciating what we have.
love- dance- sing- live !

Life is sweet and short – we forget sometimes how fragile life is – Robert R
life is good. Today. I worry about yesterday. About tomorrow. Just today is all I need. I feel a breeze on my face. The warmth of sunshine. We forget about the simple beautiful things caught up in the daily grind of Bureaucrats and fiscals.
Today is simply beautiful. Vision, art beauty. Enjoy all that is good. But even in death can we find so much beauty in a song… – R
I guess the death card also symbolizes letting go, moving forward.
Forgetting about past errors and pains. Life is not easy. Sometimes it takes just one person or idea to change our life.
We move forward to our destiny. Death is inevitable. Life is Short!
Die Young” Ringtone to your Cell “If I Die Young”
Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She’ll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh,
And life ain’t always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain’t even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I’ve had just enough time
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I’ve had just enough time
And I’ll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger,
I’ve never known the lovin’ of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holdin’ my hand,
There’s a boy here in town, says he’ll love me forever,
Who would have thought forever could be severed by…

There are natural ways to unclog your arteries to prevent a heart attack or stroke…
Your arteries are the rivers within your body that continually transport essential nutrients and oxygen from your heart to the rest of your body.
A big part of staying healthy and also keeping your arteries clean and clear is related to your diet and what you eat. There’s no joke in the popular saying that says: “You are what you eat.” It just makes good sense that what you put in your body will determine your overall health including your cardiovascular system health. Adjusting your diet to include artery-friendly foods can improve your heart and overall health.
Top 6 Artery Cleansing Foods
Organic Asparagus
Asparagus is one of the best, natural artery-clearing foods around, says Shane Ellison, an organic chemist and author of Over-The-Counter Natural Cures. “Asparagus works within the 100,000 miles of veins and arteries to release pressure, thereby allowing the body to accommodate for inflammation that has accumulated over the years.” It also helps ward off deadly blood clots.
Organic Pomegranate
Pomegranate contains phytochemicals that act as antioxidants to protect the lining of the arteries from damage, explains Dr. Gregg Schneider, a nutritionally oriented dentist and expert on alternative medicine. A 2005 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that antioxidant-rich pomegranate juice stimulated the body’s production of nitric oxide, which helps keep blood flowing and arteries open.
Turmeric
“The spice turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory,” Dr. Schneider says. “It contains curcumin which lowers inflammation—a major cause of arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries.” A 2009 study found that curcumin helps reduce the fatty deposits in arteries by as much as 26 percent.
Spirulina
A daily 4,500mg dose of this blue-green algae (usually found in supplement or powder form) can help relax artery walls and normalize blood pressure. It may also help your liver balance your blood fat levels—decreasing your LDL cholesterol by 10 percent and raising HDL cholesterol by 15 percent, according a recent study.
Organic Cranberries
Research shows that potassium-rich cranberries can help reduce LDL cholesterol levels and help raise the good HDL levels in your body, and regular consumption of the holiday favorite may help reduce your overall risk of heart disease by as much as 40 percent.
Organic Watermelon
Talk about a perfect snack—watermelon is not only a diet-friendly food, but it can help protect your heart too! A Florida State University study found that people given a 4,000mg supplement of L-citrulline (an amino acid found in watermelon) lowered their blood pressure in just six weeks. Researchers say the amino acid helps your body produce nitric oxide, which widens blood vessels.

2. Scrutinize your source.
Some art websites offer only juried artwork chosen by art experts (Guild.com); some offer anything anyone wants to sell (eBay); and some sites are run by one person out of their home (Etsy). For lesser known websites, you can’t always tell credibility at first glance, so look for affiliations and check customer satisfaction ratings.
3. Don’t buy if the seller has a “no returns” policy.
A return policy is essential when buying anything online — especially expensive art. No matter what the problem, the seller should be willing to take it back. That’s how it works at Guild.com, says founder Toni Sikes: “We realize that we’re asking people to make a huge leap of faith when they’re buying art online. We want everyone to feel comfortable returning it for any reason.”
4. View the image of the artwork at high resolution.
No matter what the item is that you’ve fallen in love with — a painting, photograph or a sculpture — always view it on a high-resolution monitor and expand all thumbnails (if possible). Know that colors on computer screens aren’t true-to-life, but fairly close. If only thumbnails are provided, contact the seller for better pictures. Most will provide them if they want to make a sale.
5. Read item descriptions carefully.
The painting that seems about 11″ x 17″ to your eye, may really be 3″ x 5″. If there aren’t dimensions or clear details about the item, query the art seller. You’ll want to know if you’re buying a print vs. a painting; a reproduction vs. an original; or a garden-sized sculpture vs. a paperweight.
6. Look for package deals on framing.
After you’ve found the art print you want, don’t forget about the frame. Some sites will sweeten your deal by offering reduced prices on matting and framing. Take them if they’re more convenient and better for your budget than a local frame shop. If you like to choose mats and frames yourself — or see them in person — simply pass on the deal.
7. Review shipping methods and charges.
If you’re investing in art online, it’s important to consider everything from how it’s protected and packaged, to delivery time and insurance coverage for damages. Good sellers will offer options to protect your piece for the trip to your house.

Ten Tips for Buying Art – and Getting the Best Bang for Your Buck!
by Oliver Ray
Original Art Modern Contemporary Abstract Paintings Art Online

Investing in art can be personally satisfying and financially rewarding. These ten tips will help you get the best of both worlds!
1. Get online. Like everything else, comparison-shopping will ensure you find the best product for your situation. The Internet is the most efficient way to take advantage of the vast array of different styles, prices, mediums and sizes of art available to collectors.
2. Avoid art without a price. When you are directed to inquire about pricing, it is most likely an attempt to gauge your interest and charge you the highest possible price according to your circumstances.
3. Look for an independent artist. Commercial galleries have their place, but you get far better value when you purchase directly from an artist, particularly one who is “emerging” or “not-yet-established”. Keep in mind that a gallery’s cut is usually 50% of what you pay.
4. Find a unique, consistent style. A contemporary work of art that looks “just like” a Monet or Van Gogh, for example, might have aesthetic appeal, but will not prove to be “valuable” over time. Ultimately, you want to find an artist who can eventually be identified by his or her style (without looking at the signature).
5. Study the artist’s biography. Knowing some fundamental information about an artist can help you gauge their potential for growth and will often provide a deeper understanding of their work.
