The Three Truths

According to several different dictionaries, the term “trumped up” was first used in 1728. It appears to have meant “to deceive or cheat”. It did not always have a completely evil connotation. It was also used to mean someone offering an “imaginative use of truth” (like a kid saying it was the monster under the bed that spilled his milk).

Today, truth often comes at a premium. Those speaking it can often be derided, even harmed, by those who are “unhappy” with facing that particular truth. Figuring out when we are being told or shown the truth – rather than the “Trumped Up Truth” is important.

This isn’t a political message. It is meant, like all my work, to spur your imagination and conversation. The “Plain Truth” is we all need to think a lot more about the life we live and the life we want to leave behind us. Happy musing!

Bayou Downtown and Greeting Cards!

Headed to the Houston Bayou Downtown Festival this weekend. Show opens Saturday and runs through Sunday. If you are in the area, hope you will come by. It should be really nice weather for walking about and enjoying the fine arts and crafts of this fun show.

I have a new offering for the show – greeting cards with my “The Three Truths” image. I do not often create greeting cards but several folks at recent shows had asked about this image in particular so I decided to give it a try.

Depending on how they do at this show, I’ll make them available on the website and at other shows. These are on heavy-duty card stock and sized for regular mail postage. If someone is interested in a bulk order, we can discuss options.

Hope to see you at the show!
