Sharing the Bubble

Does each of us live in a bubble?















Snuggling
deep in a safe place
protecting our joy..















Inside this bubble
do we have a dream
we would like to share?














Is it to be closer to someone?
















Is it to love our selves more in someone else?















Possibly
we can find a way...














In Asia they believe the deepest sense of self
comes through your family















with roots going way back















through countless generations















and the reincarnated wisdom of ancestors















as little lamas.



















I believe















something connects us all















beyond anyone's wildest dreams.















and the key
is very simple.


This winter
in Ha Noi















artists joined together


















at the Maison des Arts















in a salon
painting portraits
which became a kind of listening project.



















While staring
we began to find



















surprising beauties















within

and our painting















led others



















to find new beauty in themselves















and so, we found
coming out of our old shells














the world's our oyster!















Back home now
with thanks again
to Nga, who brought
the dream out, alive















love and hugs
