I'm sad! While taking a quick peak on facebook there was a news feed repeating an atrocity performed on an overseas news reporter. Tears washed my face as I viewed the photo, which repeated several times as I scrolled down the feed.
Original, Face #1 Lina
My heart hurts so much for a world of this nature where humans can be so devalued. I refuse to give voice to the details of such a gross violation on a human being. As much as I love social media and the chance to share beauty and thoughts openly there is a dark side to everything wonderful.
A side I wish children were never exposed to. Where everything sacred and private is exposed willy nilly....and I mean that literally too! What kind of world will future generations know?
Face #3 Savene
I'm extremely liberal, open to the realities of life. I am also very protective of what I expose myself to. Plugging my ears during news casts where they recant the ugly details of child or animal abuse. My head knows these things happen but my heart breaks every time it does.
I am not desensitized like I suspect some of the newer generation is. I despise violence. Does it happen....absolutely.
Children need to be protected as much as possible. But they aren't! They should be surrounded with laughter, wisdom and fun! Of course many children are exposed to horrible things in their homes.
One only has to watch the the series "Shameless" to understand how so many children are victims of their circumstances!! It all makes my heart ache. That series is not for the faint of heart, it depicts a reality many children face, broadening our understanding of why so many people live on the dark side!
Face #4 SophieI don't know why this didn't compute well!
Just when I most needed to hear some happy News, Joan Rivers dies.....May she rest in peace. It feels like an era is ending... The older I get the more vulnerable I feel! Although I'm a realist wanting to be current and aware there are some things so difficult to absorb.
Do you have anything heavy on your mind this week and what
makes you feel vulnerable?
I can never leave on a sad note so check out this awesome public artwork covering these Vancover Silos....I just LOVE IT!! There is an interesting video at this link where the guys explain how it was created!
