If I close my eyes I may be able to recall the first half of my life which I spent in the Southern hemisphere where December was filled with sandy beaches, roaring surf and hot sunny days. I must say though that I do enjoy the dramatic contrast in seasons and not sure if I would trade it for warm temps all the time.........but it is pretty hard sitting here in my ice house seeing you playing in the sun.<br />Great article Hagar, thank-you:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01412910381007333047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791964687001075127.post-41642059164746011652010-11-19T20:56:51.929-06:002010-11-19T20:56:51.929-06:00You are so sweet to post the photo of my piece -- ...You are so sweet to post the photo of my piece -- I'm flattered beyond words!

The barrage of red and green is everywhere, so I try to ignore it. Even in Istanbul, Baba Noel reigns at New Year - St Nicholas was born in Myra Turkey, you see. The world of marketing may revolve around US holidays, but that does not mean we have to pay attention. I love the idea of following our own artistic rhythms and those of Mother Nature. So enjoy the sea, sun and beauty of your country, while those of us north of you shiver in envy!Bazaar Bayarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00712818121398423065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791964687001075127.post-25832075685971214162010-11-18T15:40:28.631-06:002010-11-18T15:40:28.631-06:00Why is it so complicated to resonate with the vita...Why is it so complicated to resonate with the vital rythms of life and nature and be trusting that all we do with love will fruition in time? Perhaps, to feel happy needs us to block our ears and our eyes (like these chinese monkeys sculptures we can see on some vintage market! )to what seems to conduct the world, a world of fear where TAGS ares gods!<br /><br />Thanks for your close: It will be my motto!<br />Yes it's all about being a minority, the minority of those who are doing what they enjoy most and remain quiet, trusty...Sylviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03615804150763855934noreply@blogger.com
