Such awful news, so many families parents and children, so many lives changed forever. It came on top of some upsetting family news too so a real double whammy. I can see a dove of peace in your artwork and possibly an angel, very thought provoking. It's such a shame there are so many pieces of artwork on your window sill and sadly there may be more to come. Take care, sending you a big hug.<br />Love Diane xxx Diane Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007431860077443115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-65303707222497938992017-05-24T23:57:38.250+01:002017-05-24T23:57:38.250+01:00Sending hugs Alison xxxSending hugs Alison xxxDiane Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007431860077443115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-88687287178193678592017-05-24T23:55:02.139+01:002017-05-24T23:55:02.139+01:00Sending hugs Donna xxxSending hugs Donna xxxDiane Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007431860077443115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-47220163096261882882017-05-24T23:50:14.972+01:002017-05-24T23:50:14.972+01:00I too am pretty quiet at the moment, can't for...I too am pretty quiet at the moment, can't for one moment stop wondering why in this day and age the old 'live and let live' statement cannot be true - we're all made the same!

It is all beyond my comprehension how people can be so evil. At least you have your artwork to fall back on to give you some sort of peace. My birthday will always be tarnished by these horrible events - something that I will never forget. I think your piece of art today is very, very poignant.

I was hoping you would, so your head could start along the path to helping you. Very sad to see how crowded your wee windowsill is becoming... I think I get your symbolism in today's piece. Please try hard to stop feeling angry, it's what they want. And it's not going to help you or anyone else, only wear you down and make you ill. Instead, try to think of and feel love, love for all the poor wee souls, the other victims, and their families and friends, and everyone who has been affected in some way. Love for all those who jumped in to help, as far afield as the Boston hospital who sent a big pizza delivery to one of the Manchester hospitals today. The 2 youths who had a banner in Manchester saying free hugs for anyone wanting them. It's love and compassion that we fight them with. It's love and compassion that will heal. Why don't each of us start by showing love and compassion for someone we would otherwise not give the time of day to? That's my aim. Lets become more tolerant, understanding, more willing to see past things that irk us about other people in our life. That's what will defeat them in the end.
