Description
This sketch, done with 5H,
4H, .3HB and .5B mechanical
pencil came about from a conversation
I had with a friend of mine...the
realization of the inevitable
in one sense, but in another sense,
it is what we determine it to be.
Cheryl
"It's Hell Gettin' Old"
There are days when my body aches
and I don't want to get up anymore.
There are days when I think I cannot
bear another pain, another diagnosis,
another repetitive movement written
in the same old score.
There are days when I wish the solace,
the sympathy of friends would somehow
magically turn the tide of an ever
raging sea of disrepair.
There are days I fervently plead that
God would intervene this time, Please...
this time intervene...touch me
with Your healing hand, make me new,
But then I know that to live or to
die in any given moment is wasted space,
I realize that I am more than the
individual piece,
I am the culmination of all that I am,
from time past to future present.
I am the here and now with aches
and pains, joys and sorrows, Hope
and despair, every day
provoked to grow and live
through adversity to become
the complete reflection of You (My Lord)!

Faith somhow is a breath that blows through the hate seen in the faces of the old. Vengeance takes time to build it's statuary.
As always, great work and wonderful portrayal of the theme. Keep it up...
