Blowing wind

Bibi on the look-out

For a whole winter Bibi slept in the bookcase,
sleeping between the books on the shelf.
For a while ago that has changed,
As cats always have their own mind.. ..

he has found a lovely new spot
On top of the shelf, above my computerscreen
being able to have a perfect view over the room and the garden.

as a watcher...on the look-out!
(only when he does not sleep of course.)

Owr

For those who might be interested, where the name Owri comes from:
It comes from the Hebrew language, in the Bible the Priests had divine revellation through The Urim & Thummim.
I included a explanation from the book:
'You can hear the voice of God' written by Steve Sampson.

So that explains why Owri is Owri.

Owri

continuing story of Owri

Owri relaxed by these kind words of the tree,
Something inside told him that the tree was speaking good words.
that the tree was speaking True words

So Be who I am...said Owri slowly for himself,
I am light, thats what I am
Owri means light...
So I can shine...

I am Light!
Immediately as if a switch had turned on, Owri was Light

Owri and the tree

continuing story of Owri
The tree whispered...
relax....stand stillll, no hurry
I relax and stand still for all my life
no hurry to go running..
I survived all storms by just letting go and wave along with the winds
My roots are deeply planted
so I can bear fruit as much as I like...
Relax , stand still...just be.

just Be
you will know then, deep inside who you are
so you can Be for what you are created for.

Owri (continuing story)

Again Owri sat down under a tree. completely exhausted,
not knowing what to do and where to go anymore.

'enough=enough' he said.
as he laid himself down for a nap on the foot of the tree.

Then the tree whispered to him.......

Owri

continuing story of Owri
The snorring bird suddenly opened his eyes, as if he knew someone was looking at him.
Owri puzzeld by himself....shall I ask?
Owri asked: where is my destiny...do you know?

The bird stopped snorring and pointed up...
in the air... flying is my joy and my life..there is no thing,
that gives more joy and pleasure than flying.
So give it a try!
Owri said: 'I cannot fly'
Oh you can learn...take some lessons...said the bird...
all you need to do is take a few lessons... ,
a little excersizing, & a little discipline.

But where do I get the wings? said Owri
wings?..asked the bird... you don't have wings...?
By now Owri felt very puzzeld... and very confused

Snorring bird

(Continuing story)
Owri looked up, because of that strange sound he heard,
it was a bit like snorring but then different.

Then Owri saw a blue feathered bird sitting on a branch..
sleeping and kind of snorring..!

Owri

(Continuing story)
After the Ants had left,
Owri sat near a tree, to make up his mind.
There must be something, that makes sense
in all this seemingly 'no-sense' making things in life.
There must be more to it than it looks like, Owri said to himself.

He began to feel very sad and discouraged, by the thought if there were no destiny.
If there was no destiny, than it would not matter if he was going left or right.
or even worse that there was no 'right' way to go at all!
By now he started feeling quite depressed.

At that moment he heard a strange sound...up in the tree....

Ants

(continuing story of Owri)
After a while Owri met a group of ants...
They looked fierce and a bit ....hmmmm...unfriendly.
Because they filled alll the road...Owri asked with a hesitation in his voice...
maybe you know?...aehh ..my destiny?

First Ant rose to his feet and said:...'Destiny..? are you serious!'
'destiny does not exist.'
'There is no such a thing as destiny'.
'You have to do your work...find your food for wintertime
that's all... '
You're waisting your time..by searching for a thing that does not excist.

Come on ants...move on...work must be done...don't have Time for such a non-sense.
and they left Owri, who felt sorry for himself he ever asked

birth of 8 cards

Who could think of that exactly 9 month ago I made a post of 'birth of promises'...
for complete view : see link to archives: birth of promises


I then photographed & drew 8 storks carrying a baby!16--04-07

Now the cards are printed..... 8 babies equals 8 different cards !! The cards were delivered this monday!14-01-08

This is exactly 9 months ago! that I made those 8 storks with a promisebaby.
I did not know at that time What exactly these promises were in reality.
But now 9 months later 8 babys are born!!!!!!!!!!
Only I'm now waiting for the "clothes=envelopes" to arrive.
I could not have counted such a precise timing
This cannot be Someone else like God!....
Thanx so much to the Lord of Hosts...who counts even the numbers of my hair!

I am quite a bit astonished

Downunder (continuing story)

After Mole had come out of his pile and cleared his eyes,
Owri took his chance and asked Mole:
"do you know my destiny" I cannot find it anywhere...

Mole thought for a while, then he pointed down
Downunder is my destiny, so there it is.....
under the earth .
There you will be happy and secure finding yours too!

Owri was not so sure about that, because of 'difficulty & shortness of breathing....
and so much dark
so he continued his journey

Mole

(Continuing story)
As Owri stood curiously watching what would happen next,
Mole threw the pile of earth in the air,
as to make more room for himself to come out.

Mole

(Continuing story of Owri)
As the earthpile moved more, Owri watched a bit trembling...

Something blue peeked out.
It was Mole

pile of earth

(Continuing story)
After walking another half mile,
Owri bumped on a pile of earth in the middle of the road.

Suddenly the earthpile moved....!

to the left and than straight on

(Continuing story)
After a long walk & still dark, Owri met a pole.

"Do you know where I can find my way, where is my des...ti.."
Before Owri could finish his question, the pole said: "to the left and than straight on!"
"What?"
"To the left and than straight on." pole repeated.

Owri wondered if it was n't right....and went on to go straight on.

Owri 3

(Continuing story of Owri)
As it became dark...
Owri still went on...looking...searching...for his way to go.

Owri follows his nose

(Continuing story of Owri)
Owri was following his nose...searching...

owri

This is Owri
(beginning of a new story)

rivers of yellow, red and blue

I could not resist the rivers of yellow, red & blue!

jabobsladders

As I drove home from the printingoffice,
beautiful jabobsladders in the sky...
even nicer ones than these, but I could not stop in the middle of the highway to make photo's

It was as if Heaven was blinking at me...!
YES!

multiplication of my fish!

Today I went to the printingoffice, because today my cards were going to print!
I went for a last color-control-check at the beginning of the multiplication.
That to me was very .... like brrr....brrrr... shake, tremble
I hope everything goes alright!

As I arrived I saw this very big huge Heidelberg running.
I love Heidelbergers! we had them on the academy of art too...a very old one, but such a beautiful machine...even the noise they make I like.
and than the smell of printing-ink...I love that smell....its smells to me like a perfume...
no I 'm not joking.
and there it was...all my prints running through it.
Immediately at first glance, I knew I had nothing to worry..the prints were excellent.!!!!!!
sighhh...very excellent....! beautiful!!!!!!!!
such a relief!
My dream coming true...having cards...of my paintings, as I like them.
multiplication of my fish!

drops on my window

This morning, beautiful row of drops in prefect alignment on my window.

Bibi's whiskers

Bibi's whiskers

as I was thinking about whiskers,
It is not such a useless bodyparts of a cat.
in fact they tell him if he can pass trough an opening, or not.
because the size of a wiskers's pair are about the whith and height of a cat.
so before hand he knows already he can pass through or not.

as this is true in the natural, it parallels truth in the spiritual life.
by using the sense of your whiskers.

cards

tomorrow my cards will be printed.
saw the digital prints... on the last day of 2007
and they looked great!
so I hope and pray that these cards will come out very beautiful...
in the new year!
