Love And Hands

I was out photographing cold wintery Sweden with my father and my hands got so cold and hurt so much. So, I mentioned how I know two people with incredibly beautiful hands and how, sadly enough, I am in love with both of them. He asked if I'm not in love with my best friend and I said no, then I mentioned how I never paid much attention to my best friend's hands.

My father replied "That's probably because you're not in love with him."

Tatiana, 2003-06-27 - 2007-12-25

Yesterday my mother told me something she heard on the radio. A Swedish artist called Karin Mamma Andersson had told a story of when she and her family went to the San Francisco Zoo. They watched the feeding of a beautiful tiger named Tatiana. She jumped up really high. The man who fed her said she was athletic like a cat and beautiful like a puma.

Anyway, a while later, Karin's son talked to her. The whole day he had had this thing on his mind. How come Tatiana didn't escape? She clearly could have if she wanted to. He saw how high she jumped when she was fed. A time later, the family saw in the news that something had happened at a zoo.

Three men had taunted and provoked a tiger until it jumped out and attacked the men, killing the one who taunted her the most. The tiger was then executed. Her name was Tatiana. I just kept thinking of Tatiana, Tatiana, Tatiana, Tatiana all the time since my mother told me about this yesterday.

When I was home at my computer, I had to Google this and I found some more information on Tatiana. She was born 2003-06-27. The fucking idiots who taunted her were some worthless people who were high on marijuana and yelling and throwing stuff at the tiger. They had criminal records and were hostile with the police and paramedics.

It's not right to kill a beautiful tiger when they've done nothing wrong. She was just defending herself. OK, she was just chillin' in her home and some random drugged up men throw sticks and pine cones at her, yell at her, dangle their feet down the moat wall and annoy the living shit out of her. She goes to attack. I mean what the fuck would you have done in her situation?

Love

I have been through so much shit and so has my friends. I am so sick of all the abuse, hypocrisy, shallowness and crap there is in the world. I just want to live my life to shower my loved ones with love and praise, like life is supposed to be. Just safe happy fun nice. Not saying you have to be a little wuss.

Anyway, just to give out some love, here are the most awesome people in the world!

The Fairy Tale of a Little Girl Named Mim

The Fairy Tale of a Little Girl Named Mim

By Signe Robertson 2008-03-31

Once upon a time, a woman named Celia and a man named Peter fell in love. They got married and after a year they had their first child, a boy named Harry. Two years later, they had a daughter named Victoria. Yet another two years later, they had their third child, another girl. Unfortunately, Celia died shortly after her third child was born. Peter suddenly became bitter, he was not at all the same as he had been before. He blamed the new child for the death of his wife, but he decided to try and take care of all three children anyway. He decided to just call his new daughter a simple short name, Mim.

So, time passed, the flowers on Celia's grave withered, the children grew older and Peter grew more bitter. After a few years, Harry had grown up to be an overweight eleven year old who skipped school and bullied other children. Victoria had grown up to be a nasty nine year old who thought she was better than everybody else and easily charmed the grownups to gain their favour. Mim, however, was forgotten about, her father had not even remembered to let her go to school, she just sat at home all day playing with her stuffed seal Fifi, which was the only toy she had ever had and her dog that she called "Dog". Mim had become a very beautiful and calm seven year old girl.

Harry and Victoria were constantly bothering Mim, slapping her and playing pranks on her. Their father really didn't pay much attention, he had become very bitter and especially did not care for Mim. One Halloween, Victoria and Harry went to their father and Victoria, who was good at charming grownups, spoke to him "Daddy, we would never do anything to sweet little Mim, but, after all, it is Halloween, so we were thinking, maybe, we could just do a little prank on her." Usually they didn't ask for permission, but they wanted their prank to be extra big this time and they wanted some help and advice from their father to prepare it. Just to get the props and plan it, of course, the prank, they would play themselves.

Their father didn't at all mind, he thought, this oughta teach that child and he went to town to get some props for the prank. Then Victoria spoke to Harry "But, town is far to go to, it will probably take a while until he gets back and we couldn't possibly start the prank without the props." Harry looked sad. "But", Victoria added, "We don't need to play a prank on the stupid child this time! Let's just kill her and tell Daddy she just had an accident!" Harry put a huge smile on his face.

They went to Mim and Victoria spoke to her "Mim, do you want to play with us?"

"No", Mim replied.

So Victoria asked her "Why not, sweetie?"

"Because... ...You're gonna hit me", Mim replied.

So Victoria assured her "Not at all, sweetie, don't you trust your bigger sister?"

Dog started barking.

"Dog tells me not to trust you. Now leave me alone!", Mim replied.

So Harry and Victoria went away to figure out another way to fool their sister.

After a while they came back to Mim and Victoria spoke to her "Mim, do you want to drink lemonade with us?"

"No", Mim replied.

So Victoria asked her "Why not, sweetie?"

"Because... ...The lemonade is poisoned", Mim replied.

So Victoria assured her "Not at all sweetie, don't you trust your bigger sister?"

Dog started barking.

"Dog tells me not to trust you. Now leave me alone!" Mim replied.

So, Harry and Victoria once again went away to figure out a way to kill their little sister.

After a while they came back to Mim and Victoria spoke to her "Mim, do you want to go up to the roof and play with us there? We'll teach you how to fly!"

"No", Mim replied.

So Victoria asked her "Why not, sweetie?"

"Because... ...You're gonna push me off the roof", Mim replied.

So Victoria assured her "Not at all, sweetie. Don't you trust your bigger sister?"

Mim looked at Dog. He was asleep.

"Alright, then, I guess I'll play with you for once", Mim replied.

Her siblings had never before made such efforts to get her to play with them, maybe they really meant it this time, maybe they finally thought she was big enough to play with. So, they all went up to the roof, Mim brought her stuffed seal, Fifi. Victoria spoke to her little sister, "Flap with your arms like this and then jump and fly away!" So, Mim started flapping her arms and jumped off the roof and flew away. Her siblings just stood on the roof looking surprised, they didn't know children could fly for real. They looked each other in the face and jumped off the roof and fell down and died instantly.
