The first image is the silhouette of a woman who is sitting on a chair in the back of her blown-out house. The tsunami came in with such force, that it blasted out all the windows and the doors off their hinges and left a lot of open space in between. In this image, you can see the woman looking out, towards the ocean...is she thinking about how her life has changed? Is she afraid? Is she in a place of peace and acceptance? Look into this picture and confirm your own truth. Ironic that the contrast of reds and blues is a nice representative of emotions; sadness versus anger, peace versus violence....The second image is of a kitchen, left in full view, as the remainder of the house was blown away. Looking closer, you can see normalcies like earthware, an electrical outlet, and a salvage of good bricks (possibly for future use...this is ALL the person has...) Let's take a moment and think about all we have; what do we need, and what can we comfortably live without? Let's be inspired to give to where the need is great....!
