About Me:
First off, if you'd like to friend me on Facebook: www.facebook.com/TommyGleason
I've been Crafting færies (and other flying things) all my life. Designing/building my own wings from scratch and living my childhood dreams one meter (or a thousand) up. Originally from inbetween the Monterey/San Francisco Bay Areas, I now live in Rough & Ready, California.
Music:
Loreena McKinnett my fave overall. Love lots of others too. "Imagine" has always been my favorite song. "What a Wonderful World" (Louis!) my favorite song of hope. My favorite album: "Moodfood" by Moodswings. Upon hearing this album, it immediately knocked all my top "10s" into #8 spots. I've also been haunted (since a kid) by certain songs... Judy Collins "Farewell to Tarwathie;" Tower of Power's "Sparkling in the Sand;" The Moody Blues' "Nights in White Satin;" 10CC's "I'm not in Love;" The Split Enz' "Message to My Girl;" and John Lennon's "Mind Games."
Movies:
"Star Wars" and "The Seven Faces of Dr. Lao" immediately come to mind... Lots of others too. Always loved the Sinbad movies featuring Ray Harryhausen's special effects while I was growing up.
A recent movie I liked: "Avatar." I loved the echo between the Na'vi and Native American's beliefs. I see the same "Gaia" principle here, the only difference being that while that rock might not look alive to us, it's still an element, part of a synapse so to say, in the Universe's limitless time line. I think this makes sense in that I feel it's ridiculous to assume that "we Humans" are the top life form in a Universe so limitless in matter and awareness. The angels are out there... They belong to Mother Nature though, not religion.
TV:
I often wonder why folks put down TV, saying "I don't like THAAT." Well heck, do you dislike bookstore too? Sure, there may be bad trashy books in there, but it doesn't mean you can't find good books as well. TV's the same way. There's plenty of trash, plenty of good stuff! :^) (And folks have no problem listing fave movies...) Anyways, a few of my faves:
PBS: Frontline  Fun: The Chaser's War on Everything Fantasy: Merlin
Books:
"Books are Lighthouses erected in the Sea of Time" - Edwin P Whipple
David Eddings: "The Belgariad" and "The Mallorium." Love this guys subtle (and realistic) plugs on religion/politics too. My favorite spiritual book was by two of my absolute favorite people: Bill Moyers interviewing Joseph Campbell in "The Power of Myth."
Likes:
Light. Flight. Drawing Celtic wings for my færies. The rain-harp I made, when rain plinks endless little musical notes upon it. The crystals I've hung all about in the trees outside my window, casting a rainbow of rainbows dancing upon my walls.
Dislikes:
Presumptuousness, selfish-righteousness, dishonesty... Oops, these are human traits!
Hobbies:
Photoshop, photography, astronomy☄, geology, history, anthropology (both), linguistics, sewing kites, and gardening all fall in here, but making kids feel treasured beats all of the above.
Vices:
Pretending it's too cold / hot outside to go for my bike ride, i.e., Lazy. (Bad Tommy!)
Virtues:
Freethought. Critical thinking, because honest truth comes from valid reasoning.
Heroes:
Superman. Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Paine. Bill Moyers. Eddie Lama. Sarah McLachlan.
Prince Orchar, for his gentle wisdom and generous love for all... May he live on through our love for him. :^)

No more blogs?

Something really sucky lately is that blogs have to be moderator approved, and even though you know it's okay, it never gets posted. Then when you go to check your blog to see that it's at least saved, the title's there, but when you click on it, all your work gets an "Oops! Can't be found! This has been happening to multiple people for a while now. If it keeps happening, Enchanted will quickly become a ghost blog.
A miracle foretold?

What my wings are for

I was recently asked by another member what my wings were for, in regards to the person receiving them. It got me wondering just how to answer...
Buddha Blessings

I've been up all night having a blessed blast with this one. :^) This is the Lady Anastasia, here lifted up on all the colors of Awareness to commune with our beloved Brother of the Light, the Buddha. I've been escorted by the voices of the Moody Blues while doing so, and while the night started out sleepy, this has been so beautiful that the sleep simply ebbed out... Namascar to you all, with the blessings of OM... ;^)

Hi Tommy! Loved your blog and thank you. You |
|
Yes, it is the park near my home. I spend a lot of time there, and the Fae know me. That little hill just has a feeling about it. |
|
A picture? Aaaak! Only my alter ego in the drawing of me has wings. And even the wondrous, lovely Be herself is only getting a head shot. That is when the brownies or those pesky house elves return my digital camera. It has been missing for a month and I asked for it back yesterday but so far it hasn't appeared. ;( Jennifer |

(just wanted you to know I left some reply comments for you on my pictures) |
