Beauty~ the quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind.
Grave~ any place that becomes the receptacle of what is dead, lost, or past.

"I am here to seduce you into a love of life; to help you to become a little more poetic; to help you die to the mundane and to the ordinary so that the extraordinary explodes in your life.”
