September 11. 2011













Remembering 9.11: honoring and blessing all who lost loved ones, all who acted heroically , every act of kindness during and afterwards, every brave soul who has rebuilt their life , and all who still struggle and are scarred on the inside. May peace and love, compassion and acceptance grow in all of our hearts, day by day.

"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love."

Mother Teresa (1910 - 1998)

I would prefer to say, personally, that if you love despite the pain of it being rejected..that by keeping your heart open, only more love, only more love can enter.

I don't have any other words to share about September 11, 2001.

These images say what my deepest self can't articulate about that day.

Shamans tell us: images are the language the soul understands.

And today, 12.09.11 a friend has written on my facebook page :

"Let us not forget the tens of thousands of innocent lives lost & maimed in Iraq & Afghanistan as a result of this most outrageous and shameful act of deception ever perpetrated. I find the public manipulation of the grief and suffering of those who lost loved ones in the 9/11 event, and the crocodile tears shed by those who must know the truth, absolutely sickening."
Richard Waterborn

So, for anybody else, who like me, was not aware of this( truth) until yesterday, you can read the quotes below. I was scanning the Internet for quotes re 9.11, and came accross this shocking information. Why have I not heard about 'this' before? Where have I been ? Out of TV and newspaper and Internet range for many of these ten years.

"Change is certain. Peace is followed by disturbances; departure of evil men by their return. Such recurrences should not constitute occasions for sadness but realities for awareness, so that one may be happy in the interim."
Percy Bysshe Shelley

        It's official !    Here's the link to my course at the beautiful Cortijo Romero Center in Andalucia Spain -              February 25th to March  4th 2023.                                                 'Build Creative Confidence '  With the guidance of the marketing manager, we've changed the wording of the Creativity week  I shared with you recently, to fit  more with their  guidelines.

There will be a max of 10 people I believe I'm not going to be telling you what to do!

Stop-Expecting-Too-Much-from-People, Mrs!

At the end of a radio interview when  69 year old , Jewish, Hungarian born Canadian physician  Gabor Mate was asked ‘ is there more love in your life now?’  he paused. ‘I think there is more space in my heart for love,’  he said quietly.  I think  there is more space in our hearts for love when we pass 60. What we do with that space depends on lots of things. And sometimes that space shuts down ! This morning I was deeply disappointed with our village doctor, again. My heart door slammed shut. There seems to be  a Berlin Wall  wall between us. I cannot communicate with him without judging him, severely.   He speaks to me like I'm a teenager with many serious learning challenges. I see in front of me an  arrogant adolescent with mother issues!  LOL !! I thought I'd stopped judging people !! I'm angry that so many folk in our village seem to suffer, month after  month, year after year. Yes I know the  difference between healing and curing.  A kind encourag

Dear loyal multinational followers, Thank you for keeping on visiting while I've been silent for so many weeks. How does anybody manage a daily blog?? I couldn't. At the moment I've got kittens and chickens and a blind cockerel  to feed, as well as drawings to draw, adventures to live, and so much more. Since starting the blog,  thousands of you  in the US have visited (so love these statistics), and more than five thousand Russians and Ukrainians have looked at my paintings here. Why so many visitors from Russia?  I'm thinking you must be 'resonating' with something in my art , but I doubt many of you are  reading the posts. Of course I could be wrong. I've just discovered my Jewish father's ancestors came from your countries -  Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania and also Poland. What a surprise. Oh bliss and double joy to know this at last!   All my life I'd  had a suspicion about Poland.  Maybe it was just  poetic wishful thinking
