PLEASE READ THIS. / Taken in Ungwa/fada village, in remote Nigeria. This was not staged for a photographs, I wasa walking around the remmote village early in the morning and saw this beautiful child praying. These villagers are extremely poor, and many are sick. Their well has caved in and Rickets is rampant here. No hospitals, or school within easy reach, and there is no main roads for 30 miles. We are helping as many as we can. My Passion and calling in life is to do more than just Preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to these poor people, but to with your help and Gods increase meet their needs and help them live better lives. This is my attempt to add something different to the original. I am very new to Paintshop pro and copy and pasting images into other Photographs. I am excited as I have tried many times before and failed. I have much to learn.

100% OF ALL PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF MY ART, DONATED ART AND DONATIONS MADE VIA OUR MISSION WEBSITE, GOES TO PHILADELPHIA MISSION, A REGISTERED CHARITY. WE WORK WITH EXTREME POOR SICK AND DISABLED IN ISOLATED AND RURAL AFRICAN VILLAGES. I invite all to Please visit Philadelphia Mission Africa Charity website: / http://www.philadelphia33.org/ This is Violet aged 15 years old. She works in the fields from sunrise to sunset. Her Parents are dead. Violet works the small plot of land hoping to grow enough food for herself, her three younger brothers and sick Grandfather. Violet has a disability caused by Rickets. This disease is common here. Her upper and lower limbs are bowed outwards. This can be completely eradicated with your help. Violet must force herself to work, or her dependants will starve. Please help us to help her and many more like her. This poem was beautifully written by a very talented poet and Writer called Adgray, here on RB. God Bless you for wring this fitting piece . DOES SHE DREAM. / Does she dream of dancing and movies and fun / this girl with the faraway eyes / Has she the wish to kiss Brad Pit / Did she cry when Heath Ledger died? / What does she wish for when Christmas comes? / an ipod or mobile phone? / Does she complain there’s no chocolate again / in the fridge when she gets home. We complain we don’t have enough to survive / Money to cover our bills / and purchase the service and goods we desire / AND the luxury home in the hills / But where does it say life must be this way / That we have and she has not / That our world be of greed luxury and games / and hers of pain and hard lot. I look in the depths of these faraway eyes / and I think of my own teenage life / How I struggled with that I was expected to do / and rebelliously got into strife / I look at my own daughter of fifteen years / And know how I fiercely protect her / I support all her learnings and all her dreams / and use all my wisdom to guide her. But they are similar these girls far apart / for my daughter also cares for her home / She looks out for her younger siblings as well / and is rarely allowed to roam. And I wonder if having is really a curse / for to have not enough creates stress / equal to that of not enough food / but granted the consequence is less I shall show all my children these faraway eyes / for this girl is also one of their peers / their ages are similar their wants must compare / how I long to abate all her tears / I cannot succeed in my western world life / I struggle myself to survive / But oh how I wish I could lavish life’s gifts / On those beckoning faraway eyes.

ink drawing and golden digital colors-— / first-things challenge -ancient egypt wisdom music:—-—-- / Enchanted Egypt 1 / here is the very good description of user TertiusOculusOris / and the musicians / Title: Enchanted Egypt 1 / Album: Enchanted Egypt / Artist: Hossam Ramzy Phil Thornton / Year: 2004 “The first part of the title track. A short Qanun ‘Taqsim’ introduces an enchanting melody that is haunting and emotional. Based on the Wahda Kebira (meaning the Big One). The melody turns around several times, shifting to a 7/4 while the Accordion improvises in a solitary way to express feelings of yearning to the old and ancient knowledge that is long forgotten through the millennia.” ~The Musicians.

this was taken while standing on the banks of the river Nile in Nigeria. late evening and we were waiting for the small ferry to transport our Vehicles and us to the other side. Its a two day journey by road and dirt track from our mission center in Kujama in kaduna State to Tunga/Zuga Village in Kebbe state. I have made this journey several times and Live with the villagers in the remote village. Nothing can ever prepare me to deal with the extreme poverty, Sickness and Disease that is so extreme here. Dying Children, that could be saved with just a few drugs and a little money. My Passion and Inspiration comes from my Lord and his great love for the poor. In 1994, I dedicated the remainder of my life to reach the poor, not only with the Gospel of Salvation, but to rasie awareness throughout the word of their plight, adn to raise an army of Prayer warriors, and those who would sow a financial seed into their lives.

Lovers’ Point, Pacific Grove, CA…, shot on a recent trip to the Monterey Peninsula….06/03/09 12:50 AM low tide and a clear day……the fog burnt off by about 9:00 AM and the rest of the day was gorgeous. This image is taken North of Lovers’ Point from Ocean View Drive….in this shot you can see the Old Bathhouse….(the darker structure directly above the beach on the left) renovated a few times over, but still where I recall the original bathhouse that I remember from my childhood. The ocean was calm, not a wave breaking…the cool refreshing sea breeze was a nice feeling after the recent heat wave in Northern California. / / /

Green river music festival, at Greenfield, Massachusetts. / This fair came into being to increase tourism into Franklin County in the middle of the summer. Featured music artists, craft artisans, puppeteers, and of course the food vendors comprised the festival this year. / The attendees were not shy about getting in on the action! / I spotted Jugglers, acrobats, girls swaying with hulu hoops, even spontaneous music came out. / The morning showers cleared in time for a morning launch, but very overcast skies. The day was bright and sunny, then the clouds started coming back in for the evening launch. / After the flight the evening finished off with a balloon “glow” they count down and light up the night! / Everyone cheers, and no one wants the magic to end. / Wonderful New England Day! / Enjoy!

Ka Nohona i Ka La’i / Dwelling in Tranquility Pa’ako Beach Makena / Maui Hawai’i Scroll down for more images of this beautiful beach Being Alive by Joseph Campbell “People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.” Copyright 2009 – 2010 © Sharon Mau / ourjrny / The Heart Within the Art / My images do not belong to the public domain. / Reproduction is strictly prohibited. / All rights reserved Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / Shooting Date/Time: 30 August 2009 12:34:40 PM / Tv 1/250 / Av 10.0 / ISO 100 / Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM / One-Shot AF / Drive Mode Single-frame shooting
