Description
As primitive humans walk the tenous path of their expressive realization.As I walk once again towards myself to enable embraces.
------
Note: As the year comes to an end I just wanted to tell you. The year 2005 began with me in a wheelchair after a serious second relapse in my quite serious and immobilizing illness. The illness is so complex that I still cannot even pronounce its name! And yet, the year ended with me walking once again after, among many other things, very intense (24 hour) and very painful daily physical therapy. 2006 is the year in which, against many serious medical predictions, I will walk again fully. I will let you know next December for this has been and will continue to be a LONG ride. The story is too long to tell; half of it you would not even believe I can assure you. I have learned much. Perhaps I will write a book on it for the sake of others who have fallen seriously ill in their lives. For many of the ill, I have been a witness, are truly among the dispossessed and disempowered. But one thing I can say for sure. I COULD NOT HAVE DONE it without many deviants -----many unknowingly---- who gave me strength, help, care, motivation and love to recover during these months. Your beautiful and inspiring presence allowed me to disregard the intense ugliness of others who have, now, forever been lost to me. I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart. And when I walk again fully, I will visit you personally to embrace you; that is, if you accept me in your homes. But until then, I will continue to need your help, and support. Have a Happy New Year.

Ohh indeed MYvonne. 2005 was specially challenging physically, but quite gratifying intellectually and emotionally.

So happy to hear of your hard work paying off! I'm sorry I haven't been around more to talk. This latest series of images is a tremendous tribute to your conquering this unease. Here's to seeing the next year, blossoming in the bloom that the previous has given you.

Thanks mate. Such few lines to talk about something so complex. But I thought I would let fellow deviants know a little about some aspects of my life. Hope this year comes full of surprises for you as well.

Funny isnt it how we sometimes find these great moments to capture, often the unplanned ones are the best outcome. So glad you like my latest portraits, means a lot, thank you

I love this - it could be bark or a very close-up of a elephant skin. This shot sparks the imagination.

I really like this piece. To me it's a thinking one. As if you were in a forest looking through the trees. Reflecting, dreaming of past and present, or nothing at all. Very good

Your words do justice to the image. I think it reminds of your beautifully ellaborate work as well. Similar intricate interconnections, only that they are reduced to sepia!

I really enjoy your picture.
Looks like the circulatory system, los brazos de un sabio arbol, the last note in a primitive cave (arte rupestre)
Thank you so much for your amazing presents, for your pictures, for your journals, for you......" tu eres inpiracion"..... Every day I am working to be a better human being. Thanks a lot.

Yes it does! It looks like the veins in our bodies, but these are the ancient veins of the rocky world from which we were first born. The very same world which we now are quite blind to. If we recognized ourselves in these rocky veins, we would care for the world and for ourselves in very different, much healthier, ways.
Thank you for your kind words. The journeys are, in a sense, quite unique and they require great courage. Like Don Quijote. Like Socrates.
