Americana Woman

I believe in love and I live my life accordingly, but I choose to let the mystery be. ~Iris DeMent

About Me

I got my MySpace Layout at HerMyspaceLayouts.com.
"The waters, they are building to a tempest Twelve gates to the city locked again Our leaders say they have a moral compass It's not a compass, it's a weather vane You must be the story that will save you Even if it's one you cannot prove Go and share the wisdom that it gave you Go and be a god whose name is Love Whose name is Love..." ~Doug Lang~
"I've spent a lifetime making up my mind to be More than the measure of what I thought others could see Good luck and fast bucks are too few and too far between There's Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me" ~Billy Joe Shaver~
"We got Fundamentalist MuslimsWe got Fundamentalist JewsWe got Fundamentalist ChristiansThey'll blow the whole thing up for youBut as I travel around this big old worldthe one thing I most fearIs a white man in a golf shirtwith a cell phone in his ear." ~Tom Russell~
"The music business is like a big orange. Everybody sees the surface, but the good stuff is all underneath the peel." ~Les Dalgliesh~
"Wisdom and love have nothing to do with each other. Wisdom is staying alive, survival. You’re wise if you don’t stick your finger in the light plug. Love -- you’ll stick your finger in anything." ~Robert Altman~
"O Marvel! a garden amidst the flames. My heart has become capable of every form: it is a pasture for gazelles and a convent for Christian monks, and a temple for idols and the pilgrim's Kaa'ba, and the tables of the Torah and the book of the Quran. I follow the religion of Love: whatever way Love's camels take, that is my religion and my faith." ~Rumi~
"The question is not, "If I stop to help the sanitation workers, what will happen to me?" The question is, "If I do not stop to help the sanitation workers, what will happen to them?" ~Martin Luther King, Jr.~
"Lord, make me an instrument of your peace: Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is discord, harmony; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is error, truth; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy. o divine master, grant that i may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in dying [to self] that we are born to eternal life." ~St. Francis of Assisi~
