past, present NOW
Quiet picturesque little lane that takes one down to the Seaway. Old and new stand along the shoreline. What was, will no longer be.We face this every day. For the last many days I have not had a computer, I have learned from trial and error, that a laptop is not the way I like to fly. Handy they may be, but for what I want and need (feel I need) is to be back on a desktop. I would only come to this having made previous decisions that at the time, seemed necessary change.
One learns in life, that choices made at one time, may not always be what we most prefer, some we can easily change, others not so easily. Some are impossible to change and go back to. For example. every time one changes our hardware (for working on the internet) the newer improved technology is one we have to readjust to.
Recently a display I had made in my garden, was vandalized. A grandparent thought it was ok to give his granddaughter a display doll that I had put out of reach of little arms. I am a doll collector and doll artist, the display was put well out of reach, it was high on a wall, and behind a big rain barrel. Getting at it, meant one had to reach over and be tall enough to get at the doll.
It has been interesting to hear the comments when I retell this little story to friends, one even scoffed and told me it was only a thing. I wondered how he would have felt had I gone into his well tended and beautiful garden and began trying to move his plants around because I felt that the roses should be next to a bee balm plant. OR decided his lowers were so beautiful, I should just pick them and bring them to a friend who loves flowers.
Is consideration of other’s property a thing of the past, is the ability to recognize that rearranging a display in another space other than your own, is OK. ???
All things, deserve respect, your car that gets you to where you need to be, the doors that open for us to enter, the shoreline that contains are precious rivers, lakes and oceans. As an artist I don’t expect everyone to like my style of expression, but I do expect RESPECT for my property if you are on it. I now understand why people put up DO NOT ENTER or PRIVATE PROPERTY up on their lands
(sorry took off on a little rant there) however it is all the same message. Changes happen in life, some we can make choices on, and they affect us directly, others it is not as easy.
