ILLUSION of false face.

Raquel Welch is a profoundly beautiful woman.

God in Heaven, Raquel Welch is a beautiful woman! But, fixating her face into a permanent state with plastic surgery is unbecoming because it robbed her face of its years long story. Faces tell the story of a life and insights into the view of the world's challenges on a soul, as uniquely as truth tells stories. The insistence on lying to one's self is not magical. It creates a sad emotion and an emphasis on illusion, not the unfolding of life in a body lived for those younger to learn from. One of the blessings of old age is the unspoken powers acquired that youth needs to facilitate its own journeys towards the expansiveness of living, sickness, transformation, and the deaths needed to grow into the 'who' of their existence.  . . - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories [12/18/18] 

From the Deep Place

Muhammad Ali and his younger brother Rahman Ali, with their grandmother provokes the thought of the loss in American life: the proper respect for the old, the wise old people, and the prospect of dying. It is embedded within Life to live, to die, and to profit from the benefits of Life, as a man, as a woman. What is wrong in the ideology of American life is the inherited disrespect for Life Europe peed into the souls of the Africans, and the First Nation's peoples! Undoing this is Sacred Work, and terrifying because it goes against what replaced who we are and were meant to become before 'they' came to kill, and take! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 2/20/19

face of an older woman who has lived. when many awaken to old age they realize their bodies, and their faces tell stories; have told stories or is a reference for young women needing guidance. plastic surgery is fear, the mask of fear people pay for. afraid of death their angst is their denial, their denial a form of death hastening the process. fear of old age is a lack of power, and successfully keeps clarity a distance away from the substance that holds the sacred circle.

Quiet is stillness. There is movement in stillness. The Hunter is meditative in the stillness required. The perspective of those hunting is to listen to the calm in the air not altered by the fear from the hunted. These are subtle elements in the dangerous game played to remain in existence. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/22/18

Not every tool is needed in the enforcement of law. Pepper spray is not an essential tool protecting life, or restraining dark forces. Impeccability is the element and knowing subtle things about perception as power commands, and controls intent... 

There is a profound teaching knowing how to control one's spirit. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

The presence within Beauty is the soul seeing itself for what it is worth at the time. In deep moments of doubt Beauty grows into the places sorrowing for comfort in the places isolation, or indifference can place a soul, at times in one's lifetime.

"How will we die?" moments like this will ask sometimes. "How will we live after revived by Beauty?" is another question asked in stillness. On the other hand, or other side of the equation, Darth Vader's feminine side, may look like this. It is a profound thing to ponder. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/23/18 

2 point out.

Storytelling of this sort is terrifying because it ends with aging and death. Unable to see, and embrace sacred process the ability to embody spiritual powers is neglected in the process of 'raising' children, and not part of the practice of living in American culture. It began this way. Unexamined millions of tragedies feed each other to sustain the angst of life in the States. It is a strange insistence to remain in the incompleteness of an existence, but one that is very American!

The answer to this riddle is in the weave of its design.

Old woman and her cats.

"[This] Old woman in a short blue dress and an nasty feel to her style of expression is something of a force of reckoning to stand in front of by what is missed. In this absence is the feel and drive of her need for sex..." ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 8/13/18 

the pussy of Lindsay should be valued, not by its moisture or feel, but by its inherent sacredness. The problem is in the word sacred and how in American psychology removing crudeness from American perception is unheard of by our social norms. Women in European/American  history are not more than 50 years into being respected by white men! That group of men are important for validation because their ideologies are centered around taking and killing! One cannot say it enough. "White men hold women in low standing, not as their equal." ~ Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 8/13/18

RIDDLE ME THIS: 

There are a lot of academic things to say against and about this time of year. But, Life has its way of teaching youth, and over time youth becomes old enough to not shy away from aging. How is based upon acceptance. In old age wisdom places things in order simplifying what previously was baffling.

Getting old is part of a dance. It is not the same as dreading the process, or fearing death. Old age is the acquisition of power, the assembly of wisdom into a body of knowledge always at the ready as gifts. In a society disdainful of aging, and contemptuous of their insights this stage of Life is fraught with the most baffling of emotions: invisibility. - Gregory E.

porn star - Ashton Blake

Ashton Blake, a porn star, making it clear how fine she is, and how intense it can be between her short legs challenges masculinity with femininity as forces of Nature within our manly natures. A question of value is open to consideration, if you are a man. If you are merely a man!

You don't wanna listen, or take heed?

Well, its your ass up for grabs in the battle between following your dick, and your conscience! Lust is a strong drive. Demonized by many cultures and religious beliefs what is lost is the continuum of challenge our spirits need to be humans. Those energies tie our sex drive to creativity and drive the mind to settle into the spirit of things, and concepts and the ideals of humanity's basic need to be defined. . .

Bondage, a concept reversed and foul, with Selena Santana misplaced as a concept, an ideal, and a confirmation of righteousness is centered, by force, inside too many people in this country (U.S.). It is accepted, welcomed as a natural part of Life. But, the outpouring of further contradictions is owned, and as a commodity a lot of money has been made, and continues to be made off of the misperception of existence. Many will never extend beyond the mundane, and nor will their offspring.

Pity. It is a pity, but pity is not for the strong of heart with the integrity of their will intact. In the Warrior's Creed this emotion only passes through the complexity and the simplicity of being whole. - Gregory E. Woods, (Dawn Wolf), Keeper of Stories 5/24/18

AGE, the thought of

"Old age is the snow of the earth; it must, through light and truth, give warmth to the seeds of you below, protecting them and fulfilling their purpose.: – Kahlil Gibran

Where to place value.

Actress, Jaclyn Smith is 72 years old. She is fine, easy on the eyes, any man would say, but for those of us who enjoy watching good looking woman age she has what has become fashionable: facial surgery! She is smooth in essence similar to the way she was young on the 1970's series Charlie's Angels. Every four days she applies Alboline to her face in a hot shower, and each night she sleeps on a slant propped up by three pillows because it helps her breath better with allergies she has. She claims it is good for her back. The facial crème, sold in stores, is not from her line.

She said her hair got her, her first acting job on the McCloud series in the 1970's. She was originally one of the Brett girls. She'd been seen on a Brett commercial. That got her the job. Now, she works with hair stylist Jose Baer as a team creating wigs with less hair, rooted color and lots of different colors so that the wig does not look like a hat.

Jaclyn Smith, before she became successful, initially starred for five years on the hit series, Charlie's Angels. She has appeared in over 50 films and series. As testament to her skill level she played Jacqueline Kennedy in one film, and starred in the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation series. She created a business empire covering fashion to skin care to home furnishings during the expanse of four decades! Two astonishing things about her clothing line are a line of clothes made of vegan leather and that her brand has been worn by 100 million women! To top that she has been in business 33 years!

"There is equity in 33 years!" she said. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 4/19/18

A Penetration

10 perfectly built women. 

Elegant older women have a cause to their sensual overtones that can lean towards restoration. It has a lot to do with maturity developed over time undoing the actions of ignorant youth! Pitifully, aging becomes terrifying in Euro-America for unfortunate and unnatural reasons. Youth is ignorant. In the U.S., the culture operates under the belief the individual can dispel the myth of aging and can somehow defeat it and death. I understand the history of European thought and culture. I am not enough to shift consciousness in a materialistic and misogynist culture. I can only contribute to the awakening. There needs to be a shift in consciousness in the States and a dying to the assumptions of superiority. Without various types of dying and deaths will occur until only our inventions and immorality will be remembered and heralded!

All of these elements should point the collective and the individual towards the children and the unborn. It won't because of the rudiments of Western theology and ideology.

older Black woman, Jo-Ani Johnson, 64.

I have long been enamored by older women. It was intense in my 20's and 30's. I studied both my soul, and the effect of each woman who engaged the chapters of my soul that needed writing. Writhing in my loins was a snake wanting expression, to get out. I had to control that snake. Deeper manhood required that struggle. The substance of the fabric that strengthens me now gives credence to the training and discipline it takes to control one's spirit. The skill is learned best within the dynamics of sexual tension and the struggles inherent to becoming holy from within...

There is much more to this. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 10/07/18

"Big boned, larger than life women like this define or defy certain types of manhood too weak to define themselves. Those are weak men.

Mr. Right 'Has to Find Me'

Allison Janney, 58, Poses in Red-Hot Swimsuit and Declares Mr. Right 'Has to Find Me'

Allison Janney proved age is nothing but a number in her latest red-hot photoshoot.

The award-winning actress stripped down to nothing more than a fiery one-shoulder swimsuit, diamond drop earrings and pumps for an InStyle shoot, which is featured in the magazine’s new October issue. Janney, 58, opened up to InStyle editor-in-chief Laura Brown about how she really feels about aging in the spotlight.

She called noticing her first wrinkle “terrifying,” and admitted “there are a lot of things [she’s] noticing” as she gets older. “I’m trying to grow old gracefully and embrace it, but I also want to fight it and do little things here and there to help. Especially when you’re still single,” Janney said.

As for staying single, the star’s not so sure. She says she’s still hopeful about finding Mr. Right. “I’m not totally out of the game, but I’m one foot in, one foot out,” she said. “I think this guy, whoever he is, is going to have to find me because I’m not going to find him.”

Although Janney said her long legs are thanks to inheriting her mother’s height (the star’s six-feet tall!), the actress said her hair wasn’t as genetically blessed.

“I didn’t get my mother’s hair,” she said, noting that she needs “a head full of [hair] extensions.”

“God, my mother has beautiful, thick hair,” she said. “Years of blow drying and coloring and dyeing, it’s just fluff. So I choose to help fill out my [hair]. I’m not afraid to admit that.”

Janney blames the perm she got in her teens as the one look that really did the most damage.

“That was tragic,” she said. “My hair was already naturally curly. But everyone was doing it, so I was like, ‘I need more curl.’ I had to have been 16, 17. I also dyed my hair platinum blond for a movie with Stanley Tucci [Big Night], and all my hair fell out. It was overbleached — it would rip — so I just cut it off.”

Once she moved to New York to break into acting, Janney gave her hair a break and developed a new obsession: Wigs. “Even before I was known as an actress in New York, when I started doing theater there, I would go to the grocery store with different wigs on for fun. I loved it,” she told the magazine.

“I loved buying hair, experimenting with it,” she said. “It was something to amuse myself with when I wasn’t getting work as an actress [laughs]. Now it helps you in the trailer in the morning — wigs cut preparation time. Bonnie Plunkett [her Emmy Award-winning character] in Mom has a full-on wig.”

So, yes, her hair is not real and she loves that. “I have a wig fetish,” she says.
