Oh Sven my friend!  You should see my face!!
I get SO excited when you do something as creative as this!!
Personally I would rather look up!
There is just SO much more to see!
*Especially when you're only 5'3"*
Can you tell how much I love this??!!
Sure do!

(smiles) Oh my gosh, this is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I just love how your words slide down the page like raindrops and elevate all the same in motion of thought! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sven, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

such fun to read and I think I like up also but down can show humility - well a bit of a puzzle to read and evokes puzzling ponders - liked it - Paul

Sven..Had to come back to tell you this.  This just brought to mind a quote a favourite grade school teacher penned in my autograph book.  
Yup...kept it all these years...goes something like this.

One saw mud, the other saw stars."

you always find something different to do with the most simple thoughts, Sven Pen. I loved this.

I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement.

I must agree with the others Sven,
your work is always so much fun to read when
you get creative like this ...

And to answer your question, depends on what we're looking up at ....
