Of Snakes and Art

"Muse of Fire"

When I send an Angel Snake to someone, I write "This is the Angel Snake _______. She will inspire you to create something beautiful. That is her work."
It is my sincere hope that folks who receive an Angel Snake will look at it until they "create something beautiful." After that, I hope they create something else beautiful.
In my years in education, I always wanted to see my students create something wonderful--a story, a drawing, a performance, something. It is the highest order of thinking and being.

When we create something beautiful/elegant, we participate with God in making the universe a better place. We extend our spiritual selves; we are closest to God, fulfilling our purpose.

Living with Angel Snakes

It has been a trial. But fun. I carry them with me everywhere I go. They want to have their pictures taken and then put them up on the blog. Madilla and Nuncio are in charge of the blog. http://angelsnakes.com

There are now about forty or fifty of them living here because they are out of work. Don't ask! Every one of them has a different story, and I don't believe half of them. 

Bottom line, they need work. Let me know in the comments or by email if you would be willing to put one of them up for a while. They are actually quite helpful, comforting and inspirational as long as there are not too many of them. They do not eat much.
