  2. Outa sight, Gabi! For me, the image strongly suggests Buddhism. Is it a rhododendron bud opening?

  4. The correspondences abound, Gabi. The bud and the jewel; those folded hands and the folded petals. Beautiful.

  5. Jo just took the words right out of my mouth, Gabi. Your ku is a lovely mate with your picture.
    If you took the picture as well, my hat's off to you. You definately have 'the way of the camera', too.

  14. Hi Gabi from Japan!

    Yay... clearing out...cleaning.. an energizer for sure. I think your
    "empty the heart" process is a beneficial one.. creating a clearing for what needs to flow in and bless us even more.

    And I love the plant photo.. with that bud in the middle.. wow.. lots
    of praying hands... beautiful.

    Thanks fo sharing you heart..and your art of living withus..

    Peace... Cheryl
