On my way to visit a dying woman in the hospital last year, who was attired rather tattered like a doll in rancid unwashed rags, I came across this purse of stone and plastic jewels and carefully stitched inexpensive gaudy danglings in the gift shop for her. She felt joyful like a child queen and conversated much, smiling at me continuously.---------- I used this very same digital camera elsewhere to photograph a heavily gaurded crown which is patterned after the castled jewels in England, since the days old... when the knights were bold... and the underwear was made of tin... (well it seems to have been so, from the solemn, noblest, snippety miserable looks and expressions that royally garbed monarchial ancestry and rulers wore ever so frequently.) Whether a person wears a dress worth $4.00 at the Goodwill Thrift store or $4000.00 on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, the unseen inner human sparklings is what matters most. The ability to be kind to others and not abuse power or authority is of prime and most relevant importance. In a true friendship, you either deposit, ponder or withdrawl. It is believed King Solomon himself once proclaimed, after having sought the significance and true treasures in life beyond unfathomable physical riches... that the greatest thing there is, is to love and reverence God, enjoy the food, drink, daily toil of our hands and the granted human company of everyday life* From Riches to Rags... then Rags to true riches. {PHOTO JOURNALISN HR}
