Interesting flower but death I understand, liberation equivalent to birth? I do not believe in "death" because the soul lives. It is the body that dies. That I believe, hence the liberation of the soul from the body. Is this what you understand it to be too? Just curious...
Wow! It would be nice to see thew world like a bird!! Not wishing, just saying, but I am willing to wait..Scape.951
Birds have more colorful world than ours, science says....
Now if there are any other image that can say this, it is this one! Very good shot, the quotes very well goes with the shot.Scape.952

Every drop of water means Life....
Everything lives and life is everything...that is what this place is for -- to help give life, to live, to discover other lives other than ours, etc., even a carrot is alive, is a life, has a life.Scape.954
Lives thrive even amidst dirt and humus...
So true...everyone needs somebody.Scape.955

Very nice soliloquy .Scape.957

It is human nature for some to feel superior because of colour. It is wrong we know, but there are people who feels good doing it, expressing it so and making the other feel small. It is how the other person feels -- if s/he allows it to be so.Scape.958
If flowers, birds etc come in different colors without discrimination why for human being alone such color discrimination?...
Nandy, people like Stevie Wonder, if you have heard of him, do not know he is black until someone told him so. He could have had of yellow or blue for all he cares. I had not seen a black person, really black skin, until I was about 18 or so, but I have always been told to stay out of the sun so my skin will not be black. I always thought everyone around me are white (but not caucasian, just have white skin) because I always want to go out no matter what the weather conditions would be, especially in the sunshine. Then I was told my skin is actually brown. It feels like the world collapse under me. I was about 7 years old at the time. All my relations, including my brother have white skin. I was different, even if we both have the same parents. Only my father and me are/were brown skinned. People around me says it is a "working class" skin colour. Somewhere underneath Stevie Wonder is a talent for something else: music. Each of us have a talent and goodness despite having different skin colour. Find it, know it and be proud of it. It is not skin colour that makes a man -- it is our character.
Sorry for the late response and lengthy. I went in yesterday but all the pictures that I saw were small boxes. And sorry about being sensitive to skin colour -- because I happened to be discriminated because of it.
