Pain... There will always be physical pain. I pray for a cure, for healing. But there are times when there seems to be no cure, no healing, no help available. ... This evening, I forgot to take my pain medications on time. I sat on my chair, stared blankly at my iPad, tried to endure the physical pain, while I waited for the medicines to take effect. I said a short prayer, then I got my black Stabilo permanent marker and started drawing, with the ice pack on top of my head. Hubby saw me, smiled and let me be. It took about less than an hour, was not done with the sketch, when I noticed that the pain had subsided, the ice had melted, and the drawing was almost finished. .. This is what I have to contend with, almost daily. I just have to be grateful for a day fulfilled, hope that the following day will be just as wonderful, live each day with happiness knowing that there will be healing. Be thankful for those who love me, love me more and love me most. my simple art work is a reflection of my soul, betsisanders (July 2012)

Thanks for always reading my blogs. although a ot of people cho0se to be silent and n ot comment, i am still very grateful. maybe someday, I can gift you with a simple painting... just a token of how much I value your friendship.
It does not matter if I don't sell any of my paintings.  If a friend accepts my gift and displays it in her home, it is like being paid for my work. if you get tired of my work, you may pass it on to another individual who would appreciate it more, thank you and may we all have hope... hope for a better life, free of stress and pain! . and pray for a quiet death, where friends would miss us and remember only the few good things we have done in this world. love love love// betsisanders 2012
