A Beautiful Existence

This is dedicated to my good friend Sarah
for her BIRTHDAY!


I have had my heart set on this image for Sarah's birthday for such a long time, and when I finished it, I couldn't wait to give it to her. We both love the beach or the ocean, and Nature in general, and this image and being here just spoke to me very much because of the vastness of the beauty that I was in the presence of, and it made me so happy that there is such beauty that exists in this world!

And Sarah, is truly such a good and beautiful person.
I have known her for quite a long time by now here on dA, and we've become good friends. I'm blessed to know her in my life, and SHE herself is a beautiful existence, which makes me very happy.

I was also listening to the "Flavours of Entanglement" album of Alanis Morisette's on the way to the airport to get my mom the other day, and when the song Giggling Again for No Reason came on, I thought it would really fit GREAT with THIS image!

I've not experienced these feelings as portrayed in the song, in a while, but I could close my eyes and imagine them, because I can relate since I've "been there" even along the same exact highway and going North!

In fact, this photo was taken JUST barely north of the California border, in the state of Oregon.

These feelings/experiences portrayed by this song, are just one of the MANY wonderful and good things that I wish for Sarah, in her beautiful existence.


Giggling Again For No Reason
by Alanis Morissette

I am driving in my car up highway one
I left LA without telling anyone
There were people who needed something from me
But I am sure they’ll get along fine on their own

Oh this state of ecstasy
Nothing but road could ever give to me
This liberty wind in my face
And I’m giggling again for no reason

I am dancing with my friends in elation
We’ve taken adventures to new levels of fun
I can feel the bones are smiling in my body
I can see the meltings of inhibition

Oh this state of ecstasy
Nothing but road could ever give to me
This liberty wind in my face
And I’m giggling again for no reason

I’m reeling jubilation
Triumphant in delight
I am at home in this high five
And I’m smiling for no reason

I am sitting at the set of cali sun
We’ve gotten quiet for its’ last precious seconds
I can feel the salt of the sea on my skin
And we still hear the echoes of abandon

Oh this state of ecstasy
