Lauren Bacall, she was...




Lauren Bacall. Her beauty grabbed something embedded in the loins that expelled whatever was unnecessary to fathom the depths she came from and drew upon in her life. This is a Photo by Jack Mitchell on Getty Images.

Lauren Bacall splendid in her way of pulling on the loins, the imagination...








Lauren Bacall died at the age of 89 on August 12, 2014 without us ever meeting. Her being born September 16, 1924 perhaps has something to do with that disappointment. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 9/6/18

She as a story.


softly elegant woman by Stefan Teresiak. 2019. 


"The soft elegance within youth has to be understood in the context of stages. What occurs when an elegant woman begins to mature, matures, and becomes an elegant old woman with substance, and depths?..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 3/08/19

She Lived 90 years!



Old Woman, Long Life: How? 




Claire Trevor was an American actress. She appeared in over 60 films, winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Key Largo, and earning nominations for her roles in The High and the Mighty and Dead End. She also received top billing in Stagecoach. She had 3 husbands and one son. She lived between these two dates: Mar 08, 1910 - Apr 08, 2000.

I wonder what death, the afterlife, birth and living was for her as an old woman, now, as a baby and how she fared as an old woman! I always wonder about those things as I age through the 12 stages of Life!

Death, like Life. is a dance you dance, or dance into or dance with. What do you do with Death? Is your life existence, driven by purpose, or an unfolding prophecy? What is it like to simply be ordinary, or crude? I don't know, but I have known and know plenty like this. Truth is I am more interested in people living in places within themselves filled with powers embracing those powers and imparting unto others!

How these questions are answered orchestrate how one dreams, thinks, believes, has sex, and conducts themselves in relation to who they are and who others are in their own lives!

How do you live? - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 11/18/18 


Claire Trevor, Belgium-French American actress.


God, she was elegant, and obviously from a bygone era when elegance, not crudeness, was a gift to the soul, and fundamental to the essence of a woman's bearing!... It is harder to impart this sensibility into girls today for reasons their parents and their adults need to uproot themselves... - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11/16/18 




Claire Trevor, Belgium-French American actress b. 1910 !!!!







Claire Trevor, actress, lived a long time! She was 90 when she died. She would never have crossed the color line for love. She would have faded into contempt, loss favor and jobs. Her marital years would have lent no understanding in her favor had she... ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11/18/18

State of Being



Composure isn't a likeness to holiness; it is a composition stilled by graceful solutions to crude problems, and the challenge of being in the presence of crudeness is to compose one's state of being as a contrast, without judgement. The easiest way to learn it is pay attention to those who embody the quality. The best way to develop it is to do so under duress. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/8/18

TIME, in time.

"Elegance never had to draw a color line. Elegance is a definitive line between class and crudeness, proper breeding and elusive entanglements which serves as access to the bedroom. Elegance is above style. It is a substance..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

Black American woman in the woods is a stretch, but in a small river, or creek in a forest? Rarely, I have seen the first, and the second? Never and I've spent a few decades in forests. I wonder how this was planned and executed, unless you are a country woman, a hunter, spiritual woman?..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11/11/18
