Every Thursday morning we go out to help the poor, the aged and HIV/Aids sufferers with food, clothing and to do the paperwork for those who are illiterate and eligible for a government pension (about US$20 a month) / This image was for a special occasion… Christmas! Each child received a chocolate, some sweets, toys and clothing, so it was very special for them. This little boy, an AIDS orphan, is looked after by his grandmother who has to survive on the above pension and our ‘handouts’ every Thursday – a loaf of bread, some meal and whatever we have managed to collect during the week. / All the proceeds from the sale of this image will go to the Redhouse Benevolent Society.
In keeping with the theme of people’s propensity for initials, I’m adding this male Eastern bluebird to my gallery for all those who have loved ones whose names start with B and who just happen to love bluebirds: Bonnie, Betty, Barbara, Billy, Bob, Bobby, Bertha, Beth, Benjamin, Benny, Ben, Barry, Bruce, Bianca, Betsy, Briannon, Bethany, Beverly, Blane, Brad, Bret, Brooke, Brenda, Bobbi. And here’s a possible sentiment for the inside of the card: B is for bluebirds and B is for you: beautiful, big-hearted, benevolent, broad-minded, brilliant!

Thanks to the wonderful ladies over at Live, Love, and Dream! And, of course I have to thank N Kumar Bellani, because he gave me the inspiration for the piece, and his name is in the title!! I’m still not sure how he feels about all this business, because I haven’t heard back from him yet, lolol! I hope he likes it! If I knew how to make a hyper link to Live,Love, Dream, and N Kumar’s page I would (I promise, I’m not being lazy) , so please shoot on over to check out some fine works!!

There are many trees of majesty and great magnificence that caress that banks of the Loch, but for every tree of nobility there exist a thousand that grace the landscape with their quieter dignity…

As a personal journey of transformation continues to unfold, this “spinning wheel” that sits in our loft, takes on a whole new meaning as today for the first time I became a silent warrior… In the days of old, we spun sheep’s wool into yarn / to knit and weave for warmth and socks to darn Today, yarns are tales told with deceptive pride / as arrogant greed leads to superiority’s confide Threats full of fear with angry, envious undertones / as regretful voices of ego make sorrowful groans No feelings of inferiority as the truth rings in my ears / as the serenity and silence of light soon appears A benevolent nature to observe becomes a deep strength / as my voice remains silent with the lights’ wavelength A strategy of peace and a nonviolent stance / frustrates the angry opponent in this loving dance Guilt overtakes him, as I spin hopes’ energetic light / as a silent warrior of compassion, I will win this fight. tkrosevear 3/23/2009 The Buddha was the one who turned the wheel of dharma or ‘wheel of law’, in Tibetan tradition it is translated as the ‘wheel of transformation’. The wheels motion is a metaphor for the rapid spiritual change engendered by the teachings of Buddha. The wheel also represents the endless cycle of rebirth or samsara (sanskrit). Interestingly enough, another auspicious symbol of Buddhism – the hub symbolizing moral discipline, which stabilizes the mind and the spokes (usually 8) represent wisdom which is applied to defeat ignorance. The rim represents training in concentration, which holds everything else together. Dharma, literally translated means ‘that which upholds or supports’, while in Buddhist translations it means “higher truth” and/or “the ultimate reality of universe”. / The “WHEEL” in general, is one of the supreme symbols of cosmic momentum – the force that drives the planets and the stars – and of ceaseless change and repitition. Within all cultures, practices and beliefs this symbol is linked to the cycles of manifestation, birth, death and rebirth, the Zodiac, time and human destiny. Spinning Wheel
