Painted Valentine :)

Here it is, the most expensive work of art to date, in painting that is. An expression of love? Well, at least that's what the story was trying to imply, laughs. But really, is it worth that enormous price? Maybe, to the person who bought it who had that much cash to spare in his hands. But with that millions, it could make countless hapless humans not to miss their meals. It can build a hospital for the sick in a needy and poor distant land. It can fund environmental projects that would lessen the size of that ozone layer or that hole up in the sky. That money can also try to pay for studies aim to reverse global warming and keep that big chunk of ice in that arctic region before it melts its way into oceans nearby. Too much more important of an endeavour for our own planet's benefit, than a golden painting which can be bought with much much lesser of that amount. Really. But this is just me and I don't control that money, sad. So let's just close our eyes for these far far more reaching, more substantial and more meaningful tasks. With the hope that we can still be mesmerized just the same by this expensive piece of art no matter what or in spite of what endearing equivalents might have been dancing in my mind...So enjoy?

bringing back an old entry for this coming love day. a painted lady love, so they say. a Mona Lisa equivalent. so enjoy it again one more time? :>

"superstition" by stevie wonder is on the air right now, very nice :) like 'i just called to say i love you' 'one little x-mas tree' and there is one other sunny song that i forgot the title. his music is full of wonder to me, all the time. a winner :>

phil. news today has a good valentine's line that goes like this, "love the ones that you can, touch the ones that you can reach, and let go of the rest" :) and...my addition, paint the one that you love, like what this guy did, laughs. then your love day will be complete :> am i genius or what? laughs, just kidding of course. express your love the way you like it, my take :)
