Skin Deep
I do love perusing editorials. For years I've hoarded some of my faves underneath my bed and, on occasion, dust them off to swoon and drool over the fancy pages. Here are my three tops, the final of which I would resign to live in. Picture perfect indeed.
1. W mag 2007: http://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/2007/02/dolce_gabbana?showall=true
2. Vogue Paris 2010: http://fashiongonerogue.com/lhiver-avant-lhiver-david-sims-vogue-paris-august-2010/
(mostly because I am in love which Freja and her androgynous boho-chic existence)

Ouroboros
The wedding ring originated in Babylon, the cradle of civilization. The most ancient ring discovered there is in the shape of the eternal serpent.
The ouroboros has several meanings interwoven into it. Foremost is the symbolism of the serpent biting, devouring, eating its own tail. This symbolises the cyclic Nature of the Universe: creation out of destruction, Life out of Death. The ouroboros eats its own tail to sustain its life, in an eternal cycle of renewal.
The Ouroboros often represents self-reflexivity or cyclicality, especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself, the eternal return, and other things perceived as cycles that begin anew as soon as they end. It can also represent the idea of primordial unity related to something existing in or persisting before any beginning with such force or qualities it cannot be extinguished.

thankful
for new friends and confidants




to those who have left but stay with me..



for the ones that will never leave (even if i sometimes push them away..)






for the unexpected peoples who have given me the strength and therefore courage to believe in myself



for the loves of my great loves






for the beauty in hardships




for a happy past that precludes present





for precious little life




for fun WHICH IS SACRED






for my body & mind which i accept and admire

for symphony
