a shield against self pity

a shield against self pity by Tomas Karkalas

The picture reflected my passing, the farewell. 

The peaceful farewell.

Therefore I questioned myself  

Have I the right to smear the colorful  illusions of my digital paintings 

by adding the information about myself, the hand that kept the paintbrush?

We may pass by the flowers without mentioning them but that doesn't mean the flowers didn't exist. The same apply to all the sick. 

While talking with my windowsill I have grasped that people are used to note those

 who shout loudly and ignore those who just patiently look through the window. 

The artists retire and leave their crafts to others but life do not stop therefore. 

The flowers are the shields against self pity. 

Freedom from worry.

I have read "the primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but thought about it“ That‘s the common knowledge. So I looked around to check my day. The awareness of discount price looked more important than the benefit of the meditation. That was strange yet true.
On the other hand, what looked like the confusing situation provided a lot of opportunities for joy. You and I were free to follow either the world‘s example or the spiritual powers.
We are free. What a glorious view!
