they will never forget. But have you ever thought of animals teaching you valuable things in life? For Eric horses have always been in his life and have taught him more that what he would have imagined. You have to remember a 1200 pound beast standing over 5 foot tall teaching a young man more than how to be a cowboy. They are giving Eric unspoken wisdom and knowledge. Ever since Eric could walk he would be helping his dad feed horses and brush them down‚ a simple task for a little boy

The more we acknowledge about that country on continent on the opposite bank across the Pacific‚ the more we seem to notice things more essential than the prosperous world of material on surface.

Other than the shapes that I have previously analyzed in the Statue of Liberty‚ the method of screen printing has created some sections of unpainted linen. These sections are seen especially in the top row of the prints in which nearly a ninety-degree right triangle forms along the right side of the statue. Another section is seen in the third row as well; an organic or unidentifiable shape is seen (one could interpret it as a rough mountain range). Within each rectangle‚ the light illuminates the

“Man loves liberty‚ even if he does not know that he loves it…” José Martí’s word have never rang more true.
