Hi Louise,
Thank you for your nice comment.
The sign on her hand is my artist signature yes, BUT also -and even more - an ancient symbol for Unity.
You may have seen it during your trip to India or Nepal area.

Ha
Vorig jaar augustus was ik met een tekening bezig en ben toen vastgelopen...kreeg het niet meer voor elkaar :sad:
Daarna een drukke tijd ingegaan en kon het tekenen gewoon niet meer oppakken.
Nu de stoute schoenen aangetrokken en weer aan de slag gegaan...hahaha en dat is een verademing!

Oowwh dat klinkt niet goed! maar ja iedereen heeft zo zijn momenten dat het gewoon echt helemaal niet meer lukt of dat je er even geen zin meer in hebt, ik heb namelijk hetzelfde met fotografie, daarom ben ik dus ook van opleiding veranderd van fotografie naar Camera vrouw
hihi mooi dat je toch weer lekker bent begonnen met tekenen!
hoe gaat het verder met jou ?

that is the biggest problem...people do not realize what their actions result in...
It is the cause of all suffering: unawareness
and therefore it is only through pain that we realize what we do...when that which we send out to others is returned to us in some way: it is the suffering that grows awareness.

yes, that's true, but some are so stubborn that they don't want to admit they are hurting and that they took the wrong path...

ahh..indeed...in fact what you do then is return to the state that mankind was in thousands of years ago: close to themselves and one with nature...now people have forgotten about themselves. They think we are alone in the universe and there is only one life which they are living now...the destructive results of such narrow mindness are becoming more and more vivid every day...
If you find yourself out there and set yourself free, you follow the path of the Brahman (God of Hinduism)
By the way...you can also do that at home, by reading the verses of the Dhammapada however at home you get more easily distracted because there allways seems to be something else that needs to be done first...

the only thing I can tell you is that yes, I must study for my exams, and once I have them all taken or when I want to rest after memorizing everything, I'll read it what I am doing is to know different cultures and different points of view through college books. I know that all the experience from hundreds of people writing those books can help me when I decide to leave it all behind and not to worry about the "modern world" any more. what I mean is that I'll come back to nature, of course, not forgetting anyone and knowing nature never left me because I belong to it, just like I'm in part light when I think I have too much darkness, or when I "hate" when I am all love.

take your time...you cannot speed up your development, just like you cannot speed up evolution.
you can read a thousand books and learn about other peopleΒ΄s ideas and discoveries and points of view. Many will be right, most will be wrong! In anyway they will very likely be biased and colored.
In the end all of them do not matter... the only thing that matters is the knowledge coming from your
