With your bouncy curls...
Lock your heart with a key
Then throw it into the sea..."

Artist Marco Cochrane created the statue "Bliss Dance" in 2010. He displayed the statue at Burning Man that year. "Bliss Dance" is now the centerpiece of The Park on the Las Vegas Strip. The statue is 40 feet tall, made of stainless steel, and weighs 7,500 pounds. "Bliss Dance" is meant to symbolize female strength, self-confidence and expression. Deja Solis was the model for the statue.
I got a twenty dollar bill,
That says no one's ever seen you without make-up.
You're always made up.
I'm not that kind of girl, but I've known women who would give up everything(including food) before they gave up their makeup.

"I have no interest in copying objects. Sometimes I wonder: why paint oranges concentrating on their exterior appearance? What is important is the relationship of the motif with oneself, with one's personality, and the ability of an artist to organize his emotions. That is why I deliberately broke with appearances. One of the greatest advantages of artist today is that they are expressing emotions with color. I have dedicated all my best efforts to following this principle during all these past years... I confess that it is hard work."

... the end, one would say; I say it's only the beginning of something different, something that I cannot explain not even to myself right now. I'm on the last page of my 'diary' and if there is something that I know for sure is that these pages cannot be ripped out. Every 'page' holds something peculiar, especial for me that reminds me of all my flaws and my forte. This project is a memory now, which - thanks to you all - remains one of my best ones.
The last photograph of this 'diary' represents the beginning of Spring, the season of renascence, which has been so late this year, here, in Transylvania. And I think it exactly represents the duality of beginning and ending, the circle of life, of which we are all part of.
Those who are keen to start a self-portrait project, like I was last year, I can only encourage them, because words cannot express what an adventure like this reserves. When we speak about self-portraits, we speak about the individual... and I think that's something bigger than comments and faves and views. In my opinion making self-portraits - additionally every day - it's a very unique way of understanding yourself better and its main purpose should be to find out more about your abilities and limits. Metaphorically speaking, it's a road that involves many many words starting with "self-"... even the negative ones. Jokes aside, I considered important to mention this.
Of course, now I could list all the people who inspired me, and supported me, and gave compliments, and encouraged me and helped me to get closer to this world and so forth. My 'speech' is already quite long so I just say thank you, and I know that everybody will understand these two words in their own good way, in a way that I want them to understand.
So thank you, and I'm looking forward to start my next 'diary'. :)
Warning...this one has some pretty personal stuff that is ever so important to me, but may be a bit boring for anyone else. I'm posting it because in some ways this project has become a way of marking days in my life. Some days are just fun and the pics silly (yesterday!). Other days there are significant things I want to remember...
The song Daughters by John Mayer is so, so personal and meaningful for me. I've been a daughter, and I AM the girl that he sings about in that song.
I am also now a mother...to three beautiful daughters. (Yes a son too ;o))
My oldest girl is in college and we frequently "facebook" to communicate, it's a ton of fun and I can keep up with her days and even her moods. The other day she wrote a "25 things about me" list... I had NO idea it would send me into a flood of tears. It was proof positive that I am the end of the cycle of abuse! You just cant imagine what it does to me to realize that my kids have been able to grow up knowing they are loved and worth being loved...which gives them the self confidence that I never could quite grasp for myself. Here's what my girl wrote;
22. My Daddy is the man. I dont think he knows or will ever know how much he means to me. He has consistently modeled a Christ like love and selflessness in every day of my life. I will never be able to explain to him how much that has impacted my walk with the Lord, and how I kept all the Valentines day cards he has given me, and how I know he cried dropping me off at college the first time, and how I cried when he offered to drive up and get me the night I thought I was going to have to stay at LU over most of Thanksgiving. My dad is the man and he always will be and he doesnt even know it.
23. My mom is the woman. When someone says strength I think of my mom. Determined, Courageous, a woman who fights for what she believes. My mom has walked through more this past year than I ever could and she has done it with humility and grace. I dont think she gives herself the credit she deserves. I love my mom and one day I hope that I will have her courage.
I cannot EVEN begin to explain the impact these have on me every time I read them.
I'll just leave you with the song...
"Daughters"
I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me
Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Oh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now she's left
Cleaning up the mess he made
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without the warmth from
A womans good, good heart
On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too [x3]

We believe in a foreign policy of self-confidence & dignity: Sibal
by Rajeev Sharma & Gaurav Choudhury
Outgoing Foreign Secretary Kanwal Sibal
FOREIGN Secretary Kanwal Sibal who bows out of office on November 30 ,2003 leaves big shoes for his successor to step into. In the past couple of years, the world has stood by and watched with surprise Indian diplomacy spreading its wings and making its presence felt all over the globe. The Indian focus has been on economic diplomacy. In an exclusive interview to The Tribune, Sibal answered a vast array of questions. Excerpts:
Q: How do you look upon your 17-month long tenure as Foreign Secretary?
A: I look upon my tenure as Foreign Secretary with a great deal of satisfaction.
Q: What were the high and low points during your tenure?
A: There is no one particular high point. There have been many important developments during this period including the management of relations with the US, Pakistan and China, other neighbouring countries, terrorism and how we deal with this challenge to our national security. There is also Afghanistan which involves high stakes and our strategic opening up to Iran and Myanmar. With China, relations are developing very well. Special Representatives on both sides have been nominated to negotiate on the border issues. Our bilateral trade has increased phenomenally. We are creating significant instruments for ourselves in foreign policy terms. There were really no low points. It has been a series of crests.
Q: India’s relations with Pakistan swing from one extreme to another — Lahore bus journey, Kargil, Agra Summit and then attack on Parliament. Why is it so?
A: Dealing with Pakistan is not easy. It poses many challenges rooted in the division of India along religious lines, Pakistan’s claim to Jammu and Kashmir based on religion, of a country where the armed forces play an important role in political life, their support to terrorism. The extremist parties have gained political strength there. There is the madrasa problem. It is also a nuclear power. The swings are a varied response we make to these different challenges Pakistan poses.
Q: After the attack on Parliament, we were on verge of war with Pakistan. But things started to change from April 18 this year. What did we achieve from the troops mobilization?
A: The purpose of troops mobilisation was served. War is not an easy option. One should be able to take risk for peace. This is what April 18 signifies. One cannot be a statesman without taking risks for peace. The Prime Minister’s initiative towards Pakistan is demonstrative of the required political flexibility with which our leaders are dealing with Pakistan. You cannot have a one track approach in foreign policy. Relations with Pakistan are a complex diplomatic issue. There is no one single key to the problem. When we mobilised, the message did go through, and it still has relevance as it signifies that beyond a certain point, India cannot tolerate terrorism by Pakistan.
Q: Why are our leaders criticised for lacking in courage?
A: You can always fault a wise person for being too wise. No responsible leadership can be impulsive. One has to see the long term consequences.
Q: Pakistan recently accused India of using pressure tactics and delaying the confirmation of Mr. Vajpayee’s participation in the SAARC Summit to force a decision on civil aviation flights. Your comments?
A: If we are using pressure tactics it is in favour of peace!
Q: You had travelled with the Prime Minister all over the world. Has India’s image abroad undergone change?
A: Absolutely. First, the nuclear tests in 1998 showed our capacity to pursue an independent course in foreign policy. With the era of sanctions being virtually over, the world community will accept India’s de facto nuclear status. Secondly, India made strides in knowledge-driven industry and information technology. The fact that India can produce so many talented engineers has led many nations to take a fresh look at the quality of education imparted here. Third, India’s economic success in maintaining high levels of growth is another reason. From this flows all the initiatives for free trade agreements with different countries, including the ASEAN, Thailand, Singapore and countries in our neighbourhood. This activity has been noticed abroad and has been commented upon as the new dynamism in India’s foreign policy, which is based on India’s strength as a growing economic power. And finally, other countries commend the general dynamism in our foreign policy. The breadth of foreign policy initiatives has surprised many.
Q: It used to be said about India that the elephant is sleeping. Then it was said that the elephant is trying to get up. And now it is being said that the elephant has not just woken up, not just walking but jogging. Would you agree?
A: Yes. Don’t forget that the elephant can run at the speed of 35 km an hour!
Q: Will India acquire the superpower status by 2020 as President Kalam has visualised despite a host of drawbacks?
A: We will attain it. We are one billion people. We represent one-sixth of humanity. In 20 years time, more or less, nobody would be able to stop us. Look at the number of countries which have given us public support for our Permanent Membership to the UN Security Council.
Q: So the Government of India’s strategy seems to be to strengthen the economy and increase the country’s stature diplomatically and politically which would, in a way, strangulate Pakistan diplomatically and economically?
A: We would do a disservice to ourselves if we say that we are scoring points over Pakistan. It would be self-demeaning. We already have a tremendous edge over Pakistan. I believe strongly in a foreign policy of self-confidence and dignity based on a clear recognition that we are far stronger than we think. To be tough, demanding and unyielding in pursuit of national interest comes naturally to a country after it has passed through lot of vicissitudes. It is only in such a crucible that a certain kind of national spirit gets fired. Having gone through all the trails of the last 50 years, the time has come now to project ourselves properly with self-confidence. Our foreign policy today is reflective of this new sense of self-confidence.
Don't be afraid of starting new chapters in your life.
Don't be afraid of being alone, you were born that way and, at the end, you will be alone too.
Enjoy being by yourself. Get to know your mind in such a way you like spend time exploring it.
Respect and take care of yourself. Travel, get out to know new people, make new friends, love and spend time with those around you, they will not be there forever.
There is no second chances, this is it. There is no God and there is no second lives.
Stop making excuses, otherwise you will regret every opportunity you have missed because of fear and insecurity.

Possibly I caught in this series one of the first attempts to fly of this juvenile jay. Later on on the same day it tried to fly from exactly the same branch, seemingly with growing selfconfidence. Please have a look at all six shots of this series. (In the photostream the order is in reverse, in the album is the right chronology.
