`In order to keep peace at any price`

she didn`t know as a little girl when she was a little girl, the bear, the huge bear who was always by her side, was in a way, a part of herself, simply the representation of `the observer` within herself. As a little girl, the existence of the bear who was big enough to cover the whole body of herself gave herself feeling of `being protected` for somebody besides her who knows all parts of herself.

The bear was far from `judgemental` for whatever she did, she does. Simply acting like a camera on the tripod, `observing.`

`We flood our minds with words! They mesmerize and manipulate us, masking the truth even when it`s set down squarely in front of us. To discover the underlying reality, I`ve learned to listen only to the action.` - a quote from Judith M. Knowlton

`折衷 - The folded/unfolded` - 4th June 2017

A little girl, so absorbed by the colorful pebbles right in front of her.

Her eyes simply follow the lights which are reflected on each colorful pebbles, she simply sits quietly without saying anything, for a long time, but you can tell, her eyes, only her eyes show how time does flow.

She absorbs, observes, analyze by changing the ways to see things, pick up one stone to check, then places it in a different position, patiently she repeats such observation process.

Her face expression changes time to time along the process as if she discovered some kinds of new ideas, new solutions, new inspiration. She is content in such a way it is.

The title of this kaleidoscopic photograph is, `The monk, to wash over our hearts - a new phase of a life`, from 7th January 2019.

The act of reading a book might be simply symbolizing our desire to find ourselves, search ourselves, or potentials of who we are becoming forward. Those adventures through children stories, the hope, and courage of the acts as a central character, the typical saying of those 5, 6 years old children, `I want to be a `Superhero` when I was grown-up` as boys, or, `I want to be a `Princess` ` as little girls.

The potential and the capacity of `how` life presents us, simply excites us.

So you might have tried out, like jumping over from the top of the roof, to see how far you could sustain your own body in the air. You might have got lost yourself deep in the forest as if some soldiers would rescue you as a precious princess of the jewel.

`How far are you capable of doing `your plays` serious?`

Life would say.

You might have had a talk with the green leaf as if it does transfer to an obedient servant to you, holding your magic key.

Traveling to another land, totally different circumstances would make ourselves open up to such potentials.  - The mystery of life, peculiar things to see how `foreign` people would say, act, and react.

We somehow know, or at least, we hope, that the life has such potentials much more than we could have imagined before. The discovery of the `unknown`. 

`Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.` - Robert Bresson
