    One summer day, he went away;
    Gone and left me, he’s gone to stay.
    He’s gone, but I don’t worry:
    I’m sitting on top of the world.

    Are these the olives you were telling me about?...

    Ok… When I see abstract art I don’t usually see a picture (some people I know actually see other images in the image) I just usually get a feeling. This was a bit of a surprise for me because the first thing that happened when I saw this image was I saw a beautiful spanish flamenco dancer, with her long dark hair and beautifull flowing red dress. Stamping her feet on the wooden floor and clicking those “clicky” things in her hands, sorry I’m not sure what there called.

    I really like this image Lina there really is something about it, possibly also if I look at this image a little more literally I see the imperfect olives morphing towards the more composed olive on the bottom row in the middle.

    This I see as a metaphore for a change or transformation in ones self, moving from what was imperfect and growing towards something better. Now the good olive still isn’t quite perfect, but really… who is? And as long as we are aware of this and we keep improving, thats what matters.

    I think you like this Lina because in some ways it may be a self portrait and perhaps you are finding out your a better person than you gave yourself credit for, and with every day you get better. I don’t know much about your past but if I were to guess I’d say it’s not been easy, due to what looks like a dark hand on your shoulder trying to hold you back, on the bottom right olive. But with this piece you may just be accepting that thats ok because that is helping you to become the person you are becoming, and you know what? You actually like this person. This hand is also loosing grip and falling behind you, but it with you which shows your not running from it or trying to hide it. Simply your accepting it’s there and moving on.

    This piece represents I think more than six olives on a red background and I wonder if the number six is representative of anything (I don’t know much about numerology) I think this image may mean a new freedom for you, a new start and perhaps a new Lina? I like it Lina and I’m glad you do to. Much love my friend, keep moving forward. xox

    A minute ago

    When I came to this page and saw the amount of words from you I was quite shocked.. And in full anticipation of you seeing what has become my most favored creation to date.. Krisso.. Thank you.. So amazing your perception and all of it resonated so astoundingly clearly that I question nothing that ‘feels’ right.. 6 is a number with 9 that never stops showing up for me. Usually in 3’s. 3 /6 3 /9’s or 69 69 69 I swear.. or the 96 combo quite frequently.. I should look that up today..I will.. absolutely Krisso..

    I am feeling your words.. You are right about my history and the ‘grip’ of the past.. I have a friend he is a man.. and I fell in love.. Well I am seeing that it is impossible to ‘have’ him.. Straight up.. He held some info back from me.. And I got hurt.. And my ability to let resentment go and continue what could be a glorious relationship.. well on his terms.. But as friends I never care about that…and I seem to feel the sting of Old Male Unforgiving patterns remain a sore.. I do not want this about me any more.. And I feel it is all due to my past experience with father, men choices because of father exact… but because of this site and my work with the Law of Attraction. I have been able to clearly Love and I mean this is quite a miracle. Love My Father.. And he knows that.. Now for the rest of the Male Race. poor dears.. so many years I have had of tearing them apart..For being the disappointment Beings..WE ALL Are..

    But I don’t cut much slack for those I ‘want’. I have lived alone for years and I am not unattractive.. so this girl is willing but the subject matter deep.. and so damn tough for me.. But this is my stuff I clearly know that.. and the pockets of resentment that keep me from a person I truly want to allow to ‘be’ in my life is daunting at best.. and I desire this transformation as much as I did to resolve the feeling of hatred and discontent between me and my father for so many years…

    Thank you.. this is a recent event that has really put my heart to asking for the Universe to give me some juice.. some Grist for the Mill.. that I can soon become a friend to all who come my way that I desire to engage with …no strings attached…so very tough.. when we want others to be something they will ‘never’ be… “I want, I want I want…” Allow, Allow ,Allow.. the only way to live.. Peace can be found there.. Reconciliation can be found there and Love is Allowing for it all ,,, all this ‘Maya’ as the Hindu texts calls this plane of existence….. Wow I am inspired by you yet again and appreciate your heart on this subject of ‘Who Are We …Really’////xoxoxoxoox ad infinitum..Lina
