it's such a beautiful statue!
I might sound pessimistic or whatever,but I dont believe in world peace so I dont pray for it anymore.

I rather pray for humanity to show in spite of the awful things, that solidarity,compassionate,sharing,kindness for free and all those things still exist because even if it's an old truism to say we're losing connection due to all the lack of communication.

too many signs in this hyper reality where nothing is real anymore it seems,we have to be careful and remember what can be done to still be human.

I fear the power of individualism that ends up being selfishness, self centeredness and nobody cares...
but when I had depression I was there,cold and wanting all for me only, so I can understand some things about this.
When we are fine in our life it's easier to open and share it:)

Blessed be

Gabri,
I regret to say that I don't read German and I too love statuary.
