I Am Not Sad

Featuring

MADRID SOLO

FACADE
(Single Layer Design)
Is the name of one of
MADRID SOLO'S
latest releases.

Face tattoos became one of my biggest obsessions in Second Life almost immediately when I joined. I started with simple and smaller eye designs from other great designers but never imagined that in the future I would be one of Madrid's Premier Blogger, absolutely the most amazing fantasy makeup artist there is in Second Life.

They say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but not according to me... any piece of jewelry that has been perfectly crafted can become my BFF almost instantly, more like love at first sight.

MANDALA
has some of the most beautiful jewelry you can find in Second Life. I have just added it to my very small list of favorite jewelry stores.  Yeah, when it comes to my bling, I am hard to please :P

TefuTefu Jewelry Set
is Mandala's newest release. It is available in 6 different colors.
DayDream ~ Africa ~ Gold ~ Diamond ~ Black
and Rainbow, which is the one I am wearing.

Written by
― Jonathan Safran Foer, Everything is Illuminated

“He awoke each morning with the desire to do right, 
to be a good and meaningful person, 
to be, as simple as it sounded and as impossible as it actually was, happy.
 And during the course of each day 
his heart would descend from his chest into his stomach. 
By early afternoon he was overcome by the feeling that nothing was right, 
or nothing was right for him, and by the desire to be alone. 

By evening he was fulfilled: alone in the magnitude of his grief, 
alone in his aimless guilt, 
alone even in his loneliness. 

I am not sad, 
he would repeat to himself over and over, 
I am not sad.
 As if he might one day convince himself.
 Or fool himself. 
Or convince others--
the only thing worse than being sad is for others to know that you are sad. 
I am not sad. 
I am not sad. 
Because his life had unlimited potential for happiness,
 insofar as it was an empty white room.

He would fall asleep with his heart at the foot of his bed, 
like some domesticated animal that was no part of him at all. 
And each morning he would wake with it again in the cupboard of his rib cage, 
having become a little heavier, 
a little weaker, 
but still pumping. 

And by the mid afternoon he was again overcome with the desire to be somewhere else, 
someone else, 
someone else somewhere else. 
I am not sad.”
