War.

All around me, there is silence.
The cause of my conflict is tucked safely in bed.
I focus myself and with great concentration begin to apply layer after layer-painting myself and symbolically showing the world:

This is war.

I have declared it and will not rest until I win.
Or I'm dead.

The warpaint applied, I surround herself with my arsenal of weapons and begin the waiting.
I may appear peaceful.
I may appear calm.
But a battle is raging right there on my face.


It is the signs of aging.
And this 32 year old plans to win.

  1. dave and I both turn 30 this year and we are both feeling a mid-life crisis coming on ... dave has signed up to run a marathon and I am getting a dog. I think a face mask is much more reasonable! Good luck!
