WEEK 45 - 25/5/12 - SHAME

"Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who's sorry for a gnat or girl?” — Elizabeth Barrett Browning

- LORENA - Shame... oppressive, stifling and backbiting

- DAPHNE - some things can grab us and hold us. they can be so strong that we can loose control over ourself, leaving the inevitable.

WEEK 44 - 17/5/12 - JOY

"A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked.” — Anais Nin

- LORENA - A sunny day with a fresh breeze always makes me smile

- DAPHNE - a perfect day ended with a perfect drink on a beautiful balcony

WEEK 43 - 10/5/12 - JOY

"Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.” — Khalil Gibran

- LORENA - Joy when doing something can be the difference between finding solutions or getting lost while trying.

- DAPHNE - getting off the beaten track, or following the road chosen, there will always be different roads leading to where you wanna go.

WEEK 42 - 3/5/12 - JOY

"If my world were to cave in tomorrow, I would look back on all the pleasures, excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had. Not the sadness, not my miscarriages or my father leaving home, but the joy of everything else. It will have been enough.” — Audrey Hepburn

- LORENA - Links in different colors and textures. At first sight the brightest links might catch your eye, but it would be impossible to appreciate them without the dull and harsh ones supporting and highlighting them.

- DAPHNE - everything is impermanent, memory is a consistent but ever changing thing. it connects, it holds, but it sometimes tangles up.
