Photo Narrative

In the end
If the seeds he plants
Do not feed him

Then I will feed him

One garden
To another

oh Jon...
don't know what to say... as i scrolled down the page... tears started to roll down, too...
love to you...
from the bottom of my heart...
how profoundly you saw through Bobbb's words... my words...and all the things in this world...
you ARE a real...no no... a TRUE artist...
'one garden to another'

Jon said...

thank you...

don't know what else to say about his words... can't paraphrase them...

one garden to another...

PEACE and ALL IS ONE...

and about your words... DEFINITELY our choice... WAR or PEACE...


thank you for your attention and your reflections... I'm not too sure about using photographs as storytellers but this one seemed to form itself... like it was meant to be told...

namaste... shanti... peace...

merci beaucoup, mon ami...

your picture narrative is fab...
all the pics go well together telling a bitter but true story...very impressively

i just came back to thank you for not being indifferent...
sometimes evil just gains the upper hand because we tolerate it...and say nothing... do you remember these words:

Still tolerance
Does not change
Right and wrong

yes they are Bobbb's... i'm using (abusing?!!!) them here... to
thank you for your not tolerating the wrong... and what really is important here is just the humans...
thanks for taking a step to save more 'trees'... thanks for the nails to save them from the saws...
:)

and a tip for that handsome caring young fella in the second pic:

Bush is another human being ... killing him doesn't change anything... he and his bosses are just selfish and ambitious...
we should put the blame on 'ignorance' when we are ignorant, we let others decide for us... so go and help the 'trees' to change their frame of thought... go and write more and more... like the grasshopper...
:)
sure it makes a difference...
poetry saves the world...
it has saved my country several times throughout the history...

love to you and all those who make a difference...

I don't know if it was intentional... but this is maybe the funniest post you've put up in a while.

Why do others always expect me to be funny? Humor isn't going to fix this planet, it's just a band-aid. Like poems.

I'm impressed about how these pictures become thoughts, while I am looking at them.

I am
Honored by the quote
I wouldn’t even trust my self
To paraphrase it
And still mean exactly
The same thing…

The photo’s
Are thought provoking indeed
Each one alone

And as a group

Please do not hold this against me
But when I look at them as a group
I am unable to do so
Without including
The Tenacious
Serendipitous
Dandelion

Peeking up
From the previous post
Never
Never
Ever
Giving up hope…

A thoughtful and at times startling story in pictures.
