Last night we were invited to some artist friend. Her work is very playful. We came back with hubby complaining from fever and coughs. Fever. Shiver. Fever. Shiver. Coughs. Soon we'll move to a new home where my computer, books, and plants will all have their very own happy-cheerful-spot.

Happy Birthday Tagore 

As an old man he was visiting poor villages in rural India & heard a young boy singing one of his songs as he herded his family's cattle. Rabindranath Tagore asked the boy who wrote that song & the boy told him "Nobody wrote it; it's just a song the people sing." Tagore told his companion it was the greatest honor he'd ever received.

I was walking down the hallway where they have all the selected paintings. I noticed two women standing and discussing my friend's art work and how incredibly the painting is and so on. The painting was of a naked man standing facing a famous Biblical phrase! Once they saw the title "The Fagged Shepard" their whole facial expression changed into a grim and ugly one!

I hope there comes a day when our people respect the differences & elect their representatives in a peaceful manner.
