The Mist

It is winter in New York, cold and grey, but the air is clean, full of life. The Mist studies time progression pigments flow hand in hand with time. It catches a glance of time seeing from the beach.  In exploring and growing the memory recalls a life lesson that teaches us to appreciate life, and we respect it simply because of its intricacies and riddles—enough to treasure our beloved and the people who surround us. When we think of the Mist, evoke nostalgia and wonder, prompting the audience to reflect on their own memories and connections.

Its beauty is in us we take it or leave for nature does not measure our moods it has been there for centuries. Caressing and sheltering us with its unconditional love. Hardships moments in time are learned through self-overcome. the cold view does not measure it blast you and shake you until we learned to live with. Which translates that pain and struggle come with growth and strength consciousness.

As winter’s sunset slips by, it appears almost secretive, with gusty winds stirring the air and obscuring the view, sparking our imagination. The water reflects decaying poles, evoking memories of a bygone boardwalk, where piles stand like vigilant souls against the tide, whispering that remnants of the past still linger, quietly watching over us.

Perhaps time remains, along with vague opacities like the Mist, but our will is still strong. Nature teaches us resilience, urging us to stay awake and purposeful. The Verrazano Bridge stands in the Mist as a giant director, beholding wooden poles with numbers reflecting what is next in our minds, symbolizing endurance and hope for the future.

Love is an incredible force that etches itself into our very beings, connecting us in everlasting ways. While we might experience sorrow in love, know that it truly heals with time. It’s a delightful game we play, where with every gentle bounce of the ball, our resilience only grows stronger!

At Love Tides, we explore the passion that artists pour into their work. It may seem a bit self-indulgent, but every brushstroke is a loving caress that allows us to embrace ourselves. In those exhilarating moments of creation, we unleash a whirlwind of energy and satisfaction. Let go of all your doubts and immerse yourself in the joy of self-expression! Even when love fades from the canvas, the essence remains. The truths we seek aren’t in others but deeply rooted within us. There’s no need to chase after affection; instead, let the vibrant colors of our skin and spirit shine brightly before your eyes.

Take a moment to relish this harmony and empower yourself with newfound wisdom. Remember, it’s essential to nurture and uplift yourself first before spreading love to those around you.

Love can be a beautiful, fleeting moment of peace—one that flourishes when we take responsibility for our happiness. One insightful saying goes, “I long to have love every day, now I cry to leave me alone.” Isn’t that true for so many of us? Love arrives, sometimes taking us by surprise, but we can’t escape its pull. Life is about balance; too much or too little leaves us feeling cold.

This brings us back to the idea of self-awareness. If we embrace change, we can strive for meaningful connections without losing ourselves. Here’s to celebrating those lovely moments in life and relishing the paradoxes that come with it—oh, how fascinating it is! Let’s dive into this journey together, discovering the essence of love along the way.

The Bundle

Searching for who’s behind the bundle is a Pandora, full of meaningful symbols, and it isn’t so hard to uncover after all. It is a small sculpture the size of your hand.  A valuable object rooted in good memories for Amazon groups is a sacred medicine that symbolizes good luck and healing. A reminder that there is another world where consciousness is value, where matter and energy are one.  The bundle is the protector of the praying person, a reminder of the sacred and holy.  Being likely to hang in trees and not touch the ground is powerful, but not here; certainty comes from what you believe. Celebrate and pray another day to thank the gods and to forgive those who constantly want to bring us down.

At night, in solitude, dreams come to our aid, serving as protectors and often providing answers to our dilemmas. Most individuals, demonstrating their initiative and belief in higher powers, seek these answers independently. However, advised by an assigned elder —a shaman who interprets the hidden meanings within.

Upon the front of the bundle, a person assumes a position of humility, ready to partake in a sacred ritual. His devotion to the higher powers knows no bounds, except perhaps death itself. In the Renaissance, the bundle was a symbol of knighthood, a testament to the true warrior’s spirit. It takes profound faith to accept the transient nature of life and letting it go. While conformity has its merits, true acceptance of life’s realities does not lead to resignation, but rather to a state of mind that fosters resilience and high expectations.
