The big white dog is our bassett hound, the little black dog is my daughters dauschound puppy. We also have 2 other dogs a beagle and a cockerspaniel...Bazzle is the only one of the three older dogs that is kind to the puppy. Not that our older ones are mean but they are not tolerant or understanding of the puppy attitude or play. Bazzle lets the puppy bite on his ears, chew on his tail, and he is always gentle with him. Very fitting of the proverb.

With everyone fighting and pointing the finger at each other I find using my lense to speak is very theraputic to me.
I am fed up with it, its not fair on anyone. So i wonder if they'd go a day in each others shoes?

Secretary Rita Landgraf welcomed about 80 mental health professionals, advocates and consumers to an April 1 conference, "Understanding Loneliness." Secretary Landgraf said loneliness is increasing, but especially for vulnerable populations such as people with serious mental illness, seniors, and people with other disabilities.
"As humans, we need those meaningful social interactions that people who care about us or provide," Secretary Landgraf said.
A 2010 AARP study of adults found that 40% said that they had been lonely, a figure that was double the rate in the 1980s.
The conference, sponsored by DHSS' Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health, also included a consumer panel, experts on statistics and trends, and recommendations for reaching out to people with serious mental illness.

Knut was an ambassador of understanding for the plight of the polar bear - vitally important because of global warming. Through him thousands of people came to better understand and appreciate the white giants. He died too young, but his time here taught so many so much that I am grateful he was among people. I regret that he suffered, though, and wish the keepers at the zoo had been more attentive to the signs members of the public saw, and that they had responded more quickly when he died. And I resent that they are going to stuff him. The Knut I will always remember was the rolly polly, fiesty, breathtaking cub. A wild animal, to be sure, and dangerous as an adult. But he captured my heart, and Knut in his 'baby' and 'childhood' days are the images I will keep in my heart. I don't know why this affects me so deeply, but it does. Best viewed against a black background.

in this case linked to the Word of God, which underlines the fact that hearing it is not always reinforced by the understanding we need, and here that is recognised as a gift, not something we’re born with.

Project: “Concrete circus”
Theme: Circle of life
Title: Understanding
Concrete Circus to me means the circle of life: how people live in buildings, use them and how they decay. The sculpture holds four parts of life: from birth, meaning being built; being old and sick; as being damaged and how the colour changes as we move towards death.
I used around 6-7 bags of clank clay to create this sculpture. This took me 1 week at college: about 25 hours. Scale 110 cm 60kg.
At the end of time I take it back to the studio to record the final process of sickness to death as how this sculpture is about to die, then took it back out side until nothing is left but rock.
