Once Upon A Time

For some reasons all the stories begin with „Once upon a time“. And that’s just what I’m trying to tell you now about what happened once upon a time. Do you remember, once you were so small that even standing on your tiptoes, you could barely reach your mother’s hand? Your own history might begin like this: “Once upon a time there was a small boy”- or a small girl- “and that small girl was me”. But before that, you were a baby in a cradle- you won’t remember that, but you know it’s true. Even your father and mother were one day small, and so was your grandfather, and grandmother, a much longer time ago, but you know that too. After all we say: “They are old”. But they too had grandfathers and grandmothers and they would say: “once upon a time”. And so it goes on and on, further and further back. You will never reach the beginning, because behind every beginning there’s always another “once upon a time” and we can’t see where it ends.

Let’s stop blaming our selves. I know that sometimes it is difficult that one forgive himself for things they did in their past… we keep regretting the mistakes we've made. But do you really think that our life can turn to the better when we are already dealing with her in that way??! NO it won’t! Everything happens for a reason! We should start enjoying what is good, and turn away from our false, for they are things that happen in order to learn from them… We learn from our mistakes! Living in the past prevents us from enjoying the blessings of the present. By dwelling on the past and not being able to overlook the mistakes of themselves or others, they will rob themselves of the calmness they deserve!

Take a deep breath. And watch him. But be careful! She was behind him. But she could still see his half face. A secret smile, she discovered! He is part of his surroundings. Rather than ever being overwhelmed by them. He has a gentle presence. You almost don’t notice he is there, But you hope he would be. He always carried a camera Around his neck Just for the act of documenting What was happening to him. Who he shared moments with As if interactions with people Were rare and out of the ordinary! If you took a look Deep inside his eyes You can still tell… A Secret Smile! [#TrueStory]

You want me to tell you all the things you want to hear. What keeps me up at night, What are my worries, what are my fears. It's not that I don't trust you, you have to know that's far from ever being true. Or else I'd probably would have never told you, half the things I normally do. I wear my heart on my sleeve, such an easy way for it bruise. Oh, you have no idea how much I could stand to lose. You're standing right there and I want to let you in. Past my insecurities, my built up walls they're so fragile almost paper thin. I promise to tell you when it matters the most. But for now you'll have to make do with reading this post... © Rana Nabulsi

How is your year panning out so far? Ah, I see what you mean. We're not even one week into a new year so my question was a bit premature. Or was it? Much of the joy, happiness, freedom and reassurance you are due to experience this year stems from developments that occurred as last year drew to a close. Despite how some situations may appear, you are in the throes of an ongoing process that promises to bring fulfillment on several levels. This should be evident now.
Art: beyond the brain

Human perception is a creative and complex process, not an objective one. The brain is not a camera that passively registers the external world or forms representations of external phenomena; it’s not a mere recorder of images and sounds, of tactile sensations and odors. The brain interprets. It brings to bear its previous experience and analyses isolated cases in the framework of general laws, subjectively. Among the many aspects that might be studied about perception there is one that is especially interesting: man tends to find an aesthetic aspect in what he perceives. The human being, when perceiving, discovers beauty or ugliness. People have expressed these perceptions in art and have created images, sounds, flavors and texts that appear to be beautiful and that transmit their own subjectivity to other human beings. The laws of perception have been used very intelligently in art. The artists play with perspective, with the shapes of figures, with light… Leonardo used sfumato to ...
