MIRRORS


In our ideal world everyone would be like us, think like us, love us unconditionally, and have the same aesthetic, political, religious, education, and social values.


There would be no human problems, health problems, money problems, family problems, civilization-made problems, or nature-made problems.


For whatever reasons, we do not live in our ideal world. We can accept the differences or resist them, embrace the differences or fight them, try to learn about the differences or ignore them.



The world reflects these differences. America reflects these differences. Our own families reflect these differences.


Our ideal world would be stress-free, celebrate us, and we would always get what we deserve in life.


The bad news is that we do not live in an ideal world. The good news is that it would be incredibly boring. Fortunately, our world is never boring, unless we want to be bored.


The challenge of life IS life.

My blog is for vulnerable communication from my heart, mind, and spirit, meant to touch readers who are passionate about creativity, art, life, and cultures.... Nastiness and personal attack are expressions of bitterness, not meaningful communication. The internet drowns in negativity, but not this site....Thoughtful criticism, however, is not negative, but an affirmation of ideals, hopes, and caring. Positive comments are more useful if they are not meant for my ego, but to share compassion and love....Thanks for reading, feeling, and sharing.
