When Drop Roots touch the earth and firmly plant them selves in the earth , they become "Prop Roots" for the mother tree.. Right!!

LADY ON THE WALL - WITH, STRANGE, SOFT, SUBTLE OR SARCASTIC SMILE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I promise , i only shot the image on the wall, i was told a guy called leonardo da vinci did it years back , from day one she continue to pose for people and throws a sarcastic smile.

 

If you want to call it a beautiful smile or smiling beauty it is up to you.

 

I have no objection.

 

(, I found this picture hanging in the wall of a famous building in Paris)

 

This Priceless Portrait attracted all sort of opinion. Both Bokeh and Brick bats..

Some time even the same person has two different opinion. Here are those >>>>>>>>>>>>

 

1. I remember an ad. of a cigarette company, "We make it good; millions make it great" I think Da Vinci painted an ordinary picture, and all art critics made it great. We cannot escape from the general opinion. It has become a holy cow.

  

2. This is a precious possession of Le Louvre!! Like it or not, you have to say the painting is great, the smile enigmatic and the whole stuff a masterpiece!! Good shot.

always look on the bright side of life

 

does not mean ignoring or denying reality. be aware, acknowledge and accept the dark and bright sides of life then commitment to what side you want to live.

 

one verse from Eric Idle's song is:

 

"If life seems jolly rotten,

There's something you've forgotten,

And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

When you're feeling in the dumps,

Don't be silly chumps.

Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing.

And...

 

Always look on the bright side of life."

The Lyceum of the Philippines University (LPU) Christmas tree features multi-media materials to represent unity in diversity. Among the materials used are dried Durian rind from Gongoog City, Pili Nuts from Iriga City and the dried mini Formosan Pineapple harvested from Daet, Camarines Norte and many more. LPU believes that the collecting and gathering of materials from nature's unwanted and discarded objects can be productive and economical or a beneficial entrepreneurial endeavor. LPU has chosen LPU Scholarships and Grants as their beneficiary - an organization providing tuition grants and discounts to the brightest and most talented students of the school.
