I am going to have a friend of mine take some pictures of two masks that I did years ago. One I did when I was at Mesilla Valley Hospital and the other one I did several years later. As I was thinking about the masks and taking pictures of them, I remembered a time when I was forced into having pictures taken of me that I did not want taken. Have not thought about that in a long time, funny, how certain things will set your mind in reverse.

The mind what can you say about it. It gives us the ability to function and not to "function". We all get up in the mornings and put on our clothes the same way that everyone else does and or most everyone else. We go about our daily routine and hope and pray we get through the day with no problems, so hence the mind has helped us function for that day. Then there are those days that we get up not feeling quite right. Something is bothering us, the kids are crying, the husband is yelling, then you get triggered about something in your past and your mind shuts down, you can't function seems like everything is in slow motion. The other thought is when you are getting abused your mind helps block out what is happening so you really don't function you are just there.

God has given us the ability to handle things. To handle what life gives to us. I think sometimes we don't always realize this and we jump to conclusions that someone is crazy when they say they "space out" that they were there but not there. I think we need to have more compassion.
It is a hard thing to do sometimes, to love on people with multiple issues but if we don't who will?

It is a hard thing to be alone. You can be alone in alot of differnt ways. You may have family around but are still alone. You may have great friends but are still alone and then you may have no one and are still alone. So what does one do? They walk in no one direction and they talk in no particular order. They are just there, how sad.

Be blessed and good night
