Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism." Sigmund Freud
Narcissism: Inordinate fascinated with oneself;Excessive self love,Vanity.
Greek Mythology States that Greek God Narcissus was the definition of Beauty;Never able to look at his own reflection. He was not just known for his features but for the fact he rejceted every Nymphs who ever Loved him. Echo Who told fascinated stories and always had the last word until she was cursed. Now only repeating the last word of another individual. It was not until Echo came upon Beautiful Narcissus that she realize her cursed can affect her. She could not be the first to speak wishing to get his attention. Following him around until Finally Narcissus noticed Echo and rejected her just like the others. It is said that One of his lovers asked Artemisis( the goddess of the wilderness, the hunt and wild animals, and fertility) to punish Narcissus: “let him find out what it's like to love someone you can never have”. After deer hunting he came upon a lake were he tried to receive water and came upon beauty. Admired by the presence of beauty he touched the reflection Not knowing that the t was himself who was the water reflection. Finally feeling whats it's like to love something that does not love him back backfired. Gazing upon himself he just sat there and apparently died.
Karma, Karma, and Karma Or could it be he finally realize he was first to love himself before loving others??According to Thomas Moore "that the greatest "curses" in our lives are actually blessings in disguise because not until we are in a state of need, do we desire change.So was Narcissus in a state of transition?? The reflection he notice was much deeper than the surface, and for the first time he was able to see himself as an object who was now able to love himself.

A Certain Man
"A Certain Man"
A certain man wishes to be a prince
Of this earth; he also wants to be
A saint and master of the being-world.
Conscience cannot exist in the first:
The second cannot exist without conscience.
Therefore he, who has enough conscience
To be disturbed but not enough to be
Compelled, can neither reject the one
Nor follow the other...
-Jean Toomer

Joyce Owens
African American Painter Joyce Owens Artwork is magnificent. She makes sure that her art is colorful but also meaningful. A painting that's worth staring at and brings debates amongst individuals on the actually meaning of the her paintings,which brings this indescribable feeling.

"I am as bad as the worst, but, thank God, I am as good as the best. "Walt Whitman
A Written Piece
I wish individuals would take the time out, to notice that the most boring, seeing everyday things are indeed lovely. Something that you can not have or touch fascinates me,who many take for granted. I wish I Can touch the moon and hold it in my hands,or have a star,feel a cloud,view the earth from outer space.In New York City at the right Location,right timing,right moment you can find one beautiful star,one full bright moon. So Bright and vivid that how can anyone ignore its presences. Before going to bed for the last couple of months around 1 am, I look up from My window and there is this one star I can see. Since April until now my star not in its same place anymore. Disappointment came into place but suddenly curiosity evolved. Where did it go? Starring at the sky as if I can make the star reappear. I looked back up and Saw Five stars each in different spots. Stars so beautiful that it made my missing star look like the black sheep who was kicked out of the bunch,but it will be missed. :-)
