A lot of fun taking this shot as my model fell asleep several times. It is part of a series ‘Missing Him’ and was included in an exhibition ‘Living Queer in Adelaide’ as part of the Feast Festival there in 2006. A fave of mine. Image copyright © 2007, Robert Knapman.

Telepathy, the direct transmission of thoughts from one person to another, is a fun psychic skill to practice. It’s is something we can practice, well, this is my telepathy-communication-messaging-system, How it works, put both your hand on the hands in the picture, think of the loved one you would like to send a message to, consentrate, meditate, and press enter, and there your message will fly in a letter form to the person on the recieving end. Try it it really works. In short this would be called TCMS a more advanced method than SMS. /

I was obscured by sea scrub bushes as he lumbered along the sandy path with difficulty; his knees stiff with arthritis, his knobbly hands clasped behind his back. He reminded me of an old tree full of whorls and gnarls and knots in the wood. I wondered fleetingly of his love for the ocean that made him hobble and drag himself across the sand towards the silvery lace of the sea. As he passed by unaware of my presence, he said in rusty tones, ‘Well love, looks like we’ve got the beach to ourselves today.’ Iwatched him walk to the water and put his feet in, imagining the salty comfort of his toes. I wondered what he missed the most: the smell of love on his skin, in his clothes and hair, or the feel of love beside him in his bed, or love’s face waiting for him at the end of each day that made all the days of rubies or coal worth it, or the way life felt measured by the love’s grace. I wondered if he missed the sound of love humming their favourite song in the next room. His hands of wood and knots stayed clasped behind his back. I bet he was a hand-holder, I thought, my eyes stinging. I bet he can still hear music in the next room.

Attitude is EVERYTHING / Our attitudes determine whether we feel fulfilled or empty, wealthy or poor, happy or sad, accepted or rejected. It is the rudder of our ship and determines the course of our lives. It is more important than how much education we have; how clever we are; the level of our particular skills; our past accomplishments and future prospects, or how much money we have in the bank. Throughout our lives, it influences our friendships and all other relationships. Quite simply, it is the seminal factor in a life well lived versus one that is a constant struggle. Current research suggests that positive attitudes about aging are a greater factor than wealth, gender, or even our cholesterol levels in adding years to our lives. / We are what we believe. Our belief system is based on our past experience, which is constantly being relived in the present with an anticipation of the future being like the past. Our present perceptions are so colored by the past thing that we are unable to see the immediate happenings in our lives without distortions and limitations. With a sincere willingness we can re-examine who we think we are in order to achieve a new and a deeper sense of our real identity. / To experience this sense of total freedom, it is important for us to detach ourselves from past and future preoccupations and choose to live in an immediate sense of NOW. To be free also means not to be confined to a reality that seems limited by our physical senses. This, in turn, allows us to see and to participate in the love we already share with everyone. / Love can be looked upon as the total absence of fear. While all of us want love, many seem unable to experience it with any consistency. Our guilty fears from the past block our ability to give and receive love in the present. Fear and love can never be experienced at the same time. It is always our choice as to which of these emotions we choose. By choosing love more consistently than fear, we can change the nature and quality of not only our relationships, but our entire lives. / When we perceive another as “attacking” us, we usually feel defensive and find a way, directly or indirectly, to “attack” back. Attacking always stems from fear. No one attacks unless he or she first feels threatened and believes that through attack, one’s own strength is demonstrated at the expense of another’s vulnerability. As with all defenses that are designed to keep guilt and fear from our awareness, attack usually preserves the problem. / Most of us cling to the belief that “attacking” can really get us something we want. We seem to forget that “attacking” and “defending” do not bring inner peace. In order to experience peace instead of conflict, it is necessary to shift our perception. Instead of seeing others as attacking us, we can choose to see them as fearful. We are always expressing either love or fear. Fear is really a call for help and therefore, a request for love. It is apparent then, that to experience peace we must recognize that we do have a choice in determining what we perceive. / Many of our attempts to correct others, even when we believe we are offering constructive criticism, are really attempts to attack them by demonstrating their “wrongness” and our “rightness”. Thus, it may be helpful to examine our motivations. / Are we teaching love or are we demonstrating attack? / If others don’t change in accordance with our expectations, we are likely to regard them as guilty and thus reinforce our own belief in guilt. Peace of mind comes from not wanting to change others but instead, merely accepting them as they are. True acceptance is always without demands and expectations. / It seems black and white to me, especially after listening to a song this evening from the 1980’s called The Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics which confirmed that we have the ability and power to choose our attitude in any moment, regardless of the circumstances. / I am hopeful about healing my own mind and heart, and having harmony and integrity in all I think, say and do…the ingredients for Peace of Mind.

The sunset colours, / the setting of the sun indicating an end to the unfathomable 2009 fires of black Saturday. The tall trees with limbs represent the entire families taken, / the saplings the young lives cut short. The child represents our hope, / the single leaf the renewable nature of our botany. The single yellow ribbon, / those millions who gave from their hearts in everyway they could. To this child the leaf is salvation and from where she stands it is all she can see.
