I keep on smiling
What the hell else should I do
Mourning my demise ?

Love
Dirk

I've been waiting patiently for this very shot of you, I think. She's captured just the essence I'd hoped hard for (((hugs of thanks, Lieselot, for this beauty, and for lens-harnessing his))). I'd really love to save this one..with permission from both of you, of course (grovel, plead, beg...hell, I'm not proud..lol). Ah yes, the glint. It lives, my friend. You shine, still, always. Oh, this is just too great... :) (((huge squeeze, and one gigantic smile in return)))

Good on ya :)

Live Love Laugh till you drop.. Thats my philosophy, and you know what? It takes all the stupid stress out of it. I am curious by nature, your art binds to me on that level of personality type, curious. Never met you, but here you are struggling with the unthinkable, and we ride this with you, and we grow. Ever listen to the Gorilla's "Feel Good" then have your play list select Cheryl Lynn's "Got To Be Real" Now that's fun...Huggs

There's still that irrepressable gleam in your eyes.

Seeing you smile made my day! You're BEAUTIFUL! That is what first came to my mind. You truly are. Inside and out. You are a first class inspiration. (Big Hugs)

I could hug you to pieces when you're so positive, Dirk! You're a wonderful and remarkable man! :D

vergeleken met je avatar.. vind ik je koppie nu veel doorleefder en sympatieker... het is een pracht van een foto, genomen door iemand die jou écht ziet

Bob's right, you do have a devilish look about you, like you're up to no good. Keep on keepin' on Dirk!..... You've got to keep on keepin' on You've got to keep your head up high You've got to work with what you got And someday you will fly...

With a smile like that, and a devlish gleam in your eye, I would follow you into hell without a moments hesitation :) In other words, pure excellence on so many levels :)

Your gallery peels quite unexpected layers. No such smile on my face. No such following (I've read a few comments). No such diagnosis (that I know of, but this body hasn't been well in a long time). I smoke, too. Four decades so far. Funny how nobody commented on that ;-> You sure made a strong impression on me, with one page of gallery only. So far.

We will remember you.. Sad that the battle was lost .. but you smiled till the end.. Good
