Farewell Mr. Poitier🙏🏾 “You can see, within the context of how I lived and how I was beginning to work out a relationship between myself and this complex place, that I wasn’t free to indulge totally in delights. There were delights; there were indulgences. But I never lost sight of the fact thst I had to cover my back, that I was always onstage.” Sidney Poitier “With the unwavering sense of dignity and worth…this man’s authenticity is earned by the life he describes.” The Los Angeles Times #sidneypoitier #themeasureofaman #abcnews #losangelestimes https://www.instagram.com/p/CYb3jdOrloRTx87sqyY_frcZGFQl52D5HYEK_o0/?utm_medium=tumblr

MOONSTRUCK ON CAT ISLAND AND HAPPY CATURDAY 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐈‍⬛ by Annabelle & M Via Flickr: I HAVE LOVED AND ADMIRED SIDNEY POITIER ALL MY LIFE. THE FIRST TIME I SAW HIM ON FILM WAS "TO, SIR WITH LOVE" AND FROM THAT IST PERFORMANCE I KNEW HIS KIND SOUL. I COULD FEEL IT RADIATE THROUGH THE TELEVISION SCREEN. SIDNEY POITIER WAS BORN ON AN ISLAND TUCKED FAR AWAY IN THE BLUE WATERS OF THE CARIBBEAN SEA. CAT ISLAND IN THE BAHAMAS WAS HIS HOME. WHAT A MAGICAL PLACE IT MUST HAVE BEEN. IT WAS HERE ON THE TINY ISLAND HE WAS TAUGHT BY HIS PARENTS THE VALUES AND MORALS TO KEEP CLOSE TO HIS HEART ON HIS LIFE'S JOURNEY. "IN THE KIND OF PLACE I GREW UP, RECALLS POITIER, "WHAT'S COMING AT YOU IS THE SOUND OF THE SEA AND THE SMELL OF THE WIND AND MOMMA'S VOICE AND THE VOICE OF YOUR DAD AND THE CRAZINESS OF YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS ... AND THAT'S IT" I READ "THE MEASURE OF A MAN" BY SIDNEY POITIER, HIS SPIRITUAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY, AND FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM ALL OVER AGAIN. THEN, JUST RECENTLY, I WATCHED OPRAH WINFREY'S DOCUMENTARY ON HIM. NATURALLY, I WAS LEFT THINKING OF HIM AND CAT ISLAND AND INSPIRED. I PAINTED BAT, OUR BLACK CAT RESCUE WEIGHED A MERE .8 OF A POUND WHEN HE CAME TO US AND HAD LITTLE CHANCE OF SURVIVING, BUT HE WAS DETERMINED TO LIVE. HE WILL BE 6 YEARS OLD THIS OCTOBER 27TH. I DECIDED TO PAINT HIM IN MY REVIVED PAINTING OF "GHOSTS IN THE MOONLIGHT". WHAT BETTER PLACE FOR A CAT TO LIVE THAN ON CAT ISLAND. "MOONSTRUCK ON CAT ISLAND" MIXED MEDIA OIL PAINTING ON WOOD MOONSTRUCK ON CAT ISLAND 2022 ANNABELLE ...I FORGOT TO SIGN IT, LOL THANK YOU SIR... "MOONSTRUCK ON CAT ISLAND"🐾🐾🐾🐾🐈‍⬛ HAPPY CATURDAY FROM CAT ISLAND 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐈‍⬛

“Many have traced the history of polluting U.S. corporations and shown they find it profitable to deny responsibility for death and disease, so we can’t be surprised that industries still deem the cost of testing, cleanup, and abatement too great an expense to preserve the lives, health, and minds of millions” (289).

These letters are sooooo tiny! I felt limited by the size (and my ability) to really do much more than this, but I really felt these words needed to be put on this antique 7-1/2" try square. The brass circle is roughly the size of a quarter. Also, I haven't wiped my guide lines off yet! Call me eager, lol... I'll have this and a few new painted tools at the upcoming #smithvilleartwalk, along with some other fun items. That's this Saturday, April 21!

What Measure of Man Are You?

PERSPECTIVE MATTERS... Man Matters!

“But the LORD God called to the man and said to him, ‘Where are you?’" ~ Genesis 3:9

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. stood at the modest height of just 5′6″ and tipped the scales at 173 lbs. The man he looked up to, Mahatma Gandhi stood at an even less impressive 5′5′’ and was of slight build. These two men would never be mistaken for heavyweight boxing champions. Yet each man was a giant of his generation. They each went down in history for bravely and conscientiously leading movements that changed the tone and tenor of the world, not just their own nations. And in the 2017 World Series just recently concluded, the sports world got to witness the physical exploits of the smallest man in big league baseball. Standing just 5′6″ the Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve, three-time American League Batting Champion and five-time All Star, led his team to its first World Series Championship and as the leading candidate for American League Player of the Year is arguably Major League Baseball’s single best player. It just goes to show that there is so much more to the measure of a man than just his measurements. These world-changers were not left to be measured only in terms of their modest physical stature, but in the immense size of their spiritual stature, often referred to in sports terms as “heart.”

“What measure of man are you?” Here is the definitive question in the life of a man... The measure of a man was first called into question by God when the first man, Adam, rebelled against his Creator, his failure revealed in the perfect paradise of the Garden of Eden. Adam was supremely surrounded by everything he could possibly need and want for a life that was absolutely full, satisfying and complete eternally. In his perfect garden paradise, all supplied for him by his Creator, Adam and his wife had nothing missing, nothing lacking and nothing broken. Life could not possibly be more perfect. Until it wasn’t... At the moment of Adam’s rebellion, “perfect” would be forever lost and replaced by problems. Lots and lots of problems punctuated by pain.

It was in the midst of his sensing his mounting problems that man fled the scene of his crime, his former intimate relationship with God and from his true better, authentic self. Man’s crime was the sin of disobedience to God’s explicit instructions given to maintain his life-giving and purpose fulfilling environment. When problems began to ensue upon the earth, God looked for His manager, the man whom He divinely put in charge of the pristinely perfect environment of the earth. “Where are you?” was the beckoning call of God to the man He created. And it still is His beckoning call today.

Man, “where are you?” No matter the measure of your physical person, where you are spiritually will determine what difference your physical presence will make in any and every situation within which you insert and assert yourself. In spite of the modestness or immenseness of your physical measurements, the measure of a man will always be determined by his spirit and the resulting content of his character. Heart matters matter most. For out of your heart flow the issues of your life (see Proverbs 4:23). To live a large life will require an equally large heart.

Where you are spiritually will determine who you are and what you shall become in every other sphere, realm and dimension of your life as well as in the lives of others. If you are found to be a spiritual pygmy, it will matter little if you possess a towering physical stature and frame. You will eventually be revealed for the colossal midget of a man you truly are. There will likely be ample time and chance to reveal the measure of man you truly are. As wise King Solomon noted, “time and chance happen to them all” (Eccl. 9:11). 

Where you are spiritually cannot be determined while you are embedded in moments of comfort and convenience, but is revealed during times of challenge and controversy. In the difficult times of trial and trouble, “where are you?” In the chance that times of challenge and controversy color the circumstances of those around you, “where are you?” Can you be counted on by your family, your church, your community, your nation, and your world, or will you be counted out? What measure of man will you be found to be? Where you are will determine the measure of man you are. Our times demand the presence of men who are spiritual giants with immense hearts. Be a man that can be counted on, not counted out. Perspective Matters...
