Someone Who Believes



When cancer threatens to eat your flesh away
And you’re kept awake by constant pain
Let me help soothe that inner hurt
And revive that illusive rainbow
Show you another pathway
To reach that dream
Only I ask that
You believe
You can

Words r mine (c)

As long as there's a someone who can just be there for the cancer victim, whether its the spouse, family member, friend or even the healthcare provider, it can go a long way to help the person thru the journey.

Someone Who Believes In You

Quantums of joy



If giant jellyfish have souls, here's how their prophecy of rapture might read:

At the sound of the thunder, the dead shall rise first from the seabed. Then we who are alive shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet our Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with our Lord. And the humans shall be our witnesses.

These creatures have emotions too like humans. The woman, being very close to them, tried to guide them as they struggled out of the water for the first time with mixed feelings of ecstasy, fear and bewilderment,as they leave their world to meet their Maker.

The seascape and lighthouse is taken from my earlier work posted here.

I also use jellyfish images as reference, taken from sxc.hu

Thanks for viewing!

The Whisper of a Single Verse





Their final moments.....

The breathless whisper of a single verse
And loneliness blossoms within my heart
The shimmer of a single dream
And my world is undone
The memory of a single tenderness
And the sting of love reignites my wounds
In the moment when a single tear falls
All hatred becomes a distant blur
I can love you with all that I am
But even this cannot return you to me
From now on I will live as a shadow
Forever in the past…..

(Lyrics for Only for Love)sung by Jane Zhang, themesong from the movie 'The Banquet'

Dedicated to the Apple of My Eye ;-)

In solidarity we stand


This one's made for the people of Myanmar and for the loss, the grief and the silence that they have endured all thru the years.

Some facts about Myanmar, one of the poorest countries in the world:
*23 percent of the population had incomes that placed them below the poverty line.
*Many poor people are forced to send their children to work.
*The number of street children has also increased, and malnutrition among children is widespread.
*Large outlays of money have been spent on the military, while only meager funds have gone to education and health issues.
*The recent Nargis Cyclone have caused deadly flooding with loss of lives reaching 100,000.

All temples used in this work are located within Myanmar.
Temple1, Temple2, Temple3, Temple4

Clouds are digitally painted, freehand.

I'm a born-again free thinker. My only true religion is human rights. You can say that I'm a humanist who doesn't exclude animal rights as well. Praise Dog for that! I strongly believe in free inquiry and the freedom to choose. This post is about the evil of human oppression. Down with child labour!

Music for inspiration: Greatest love of all, sung by Whitney Houston
