Month: January 2017

It is a pleasant surprise when reading the news, to come across a ‘good news’ story, because as we know ’The News’ is often filled with depressing stories, fact and opinion.

For some time now, I’ve been accessing my News via ‘Google News’, which allows me to set up filters on things that I am interested (apart from the normal News), like Photography, Painting, Poetry, Public Speaking etc.

Recently, I was pleased to find an article titled ‘Paintings by Syrian children display of hope.’

Despite the war, senseless destruction and being forced to leave their Homeland, it was pleasing to read that the children, when creating Art, created paintings filled with vibrant colours, white doves, the latter symbolising peace.

Through their Art, these children are creating a new life, a life full of hope and love.

We, as adults, owe it to the children of the world to build a better future for them.

I’ve included a link for those who wish to read the full article.
