Life gives us art and we use art to celebrate life.
Art, like life, follows the creative path of nature, not the values of human society.
A poet, like a gardener or chef, loves everything because they need everything.
Live forever.
Lao girl reflects her happy world.

We are like the spider. We weave our life and then move along in it. We are like the dreamer who dreams and then lives in the dream. This is true for the entire universe. - Upanishad

Walker, your footsteps are the road, and nothing more.
Walker, there is no road, the road is
made by walking.
Walking, you make the road, and turning to look behind you see the path
you will never walk again.
Walker, there is no road, only foam trails on the sea. - Antonio Machado
