A Boy Riding on a Sheep and His Beliefs
Winter, 2003
Every time I see people having faith, I think they are very strong.
I have never involved in any specified religions.
When I felt my soul gstarvedh, I would lose my peace of mind.
I tried to read various books, waited for the ganswerh to come up, and
tried to find the ganswerh in someonefs actual experiences.
However, I could hardly find the ganswerh.
I will probably keep finding until I realize it.
I have no idea what the answer really is until I find it.
Trying to have good experience and understand what is happening on your
own is important. But living by strong faith and accepting what is
happening is also important. These are completely different and it
depends on the person which one to choose.
I drew a boy riding on a sheep that symbolizes obedience and meekness.
The boy is a person of faith and he is riding the sheep without any fear.
Trying to live guided by emerging words and events is something like stepping
into a blank world without a map.
Theh willh to make a person step in a blank word is similar to religion.
The gwillh may be regarded as madness, or it may be mixed up with someone
elsefs gwillh. Stepping into a blank world could lead a life to
the wrong direction.
Life is full of mysteries.
