... you will never grow old .. you will never die.

 

You do something to me
  something deep inside
I've been hanging on the wire
  for a love I never thought I'd find
You do something wonderful
  then chase it all away
Mixing my emotions
  you whirl me back again
Hanging on the wire
Waiting for a change
Dancing through the fire
Just to catch a flame

You do something to me
  somewhere deep inside
Helping me get close to
  the peace I cannot find
Dancing through the fire, yeah ..
  just to catch a flame
    an' feel somethin' real again

Just to get close to ...
  just close enough to tell you ...
    that ...
You do something to me
  something deep inside

—Paul Weller

Last week this gal above turned seven years old. Yeah, she looks mature for her age.  Rianne was created way back in the Victoria III era.  In the days of Reality, Octane and Poser Pro 2014 no one could slight you for considering her and all generation 3 models dead and gone.  But love and passion have a way of restoring what we once thought lost.  Take a look in those eyes!  There's still a lot of life shining through this gal.

Go wherever the latest technology leads you .. but don't completely let go of the past just yet.  There are many wonders still to be discovered there.

Keep those creative fires burning!

Terry
