Description
We search for Paradise, that perfect place were we can be together, until from the ashes a new world is born. I heard that paradise opens when the world becomes desolate, a wasteland crumbling away, no longer sustaining a single breath. No one told me that to get to paradise, you had to die. No one told me that I had been in paradise all along.
----------

This piece is extremely personal to me. For the first time I feel like I achieved the vision inside my head. We live in a paradise, yet we look for it in all the wrong places. It seems only the animals know where to seek...

This is for use by me and ~cantabile-reaper only. possibly might enter this in ~Shimshims contest ^^

I gotta agree, that we all search for paradise in the wrong places, mostly in man-made-places/technologies, but whatever happened to natural paradise? You magnificently capture the concept of natural paradise. I just love the thought behind it.

Blubirdz In reply to JAS-addict [2009-06-24 22:14:34 +0000 UTC]

So true, the natural paradises become harder to find, it seems technologies touch is almost everywhere.

Ironic though, that what I am trying to convey is being viewed through technology and has been created by technology =S

Thanks for the comment, you got right at what I was aiming for.

Even I thought that was ironic. But what's life without a few ironies? lol. Ok maybe more than a few too many ironies. lol.
