"Red House" by Jimi Hendrix

For David...my red house is always open to you.

On the other hand, apart from making a picture paying homage to a song, today I was contemplating the battle against breast cancer currently being waged, about how we should be living our often-complex and hectic lives in light of ALL the ongoing wars. Linda's touching tribute to Caron Keating http://www.pbase.com/image/27954832 ) not only told me the story of a brave woman, but a story about how to live life. Period. When I lifted my shirt and pressed the timer on the camera, I said, "We should live life freely, with a hell of a lot of courage." Click.

So here's to living life bravely.

i CAN'T believe it!!! Not that you took this picture, but that I did one just like it the other day. I bought a new bra and it's a lacy see-through one (not my usual style for a long, long time). I was looking for something that fit...well, anyhow, I took a picture just like this and then decided the world wasn't ready for a just-about-59-year-old woman in a lacy bra...(I wonder if I deleted that???)
