In this way, truth, freedom, love, clear perception, purity, transcendence, and
enlightenment are all the very same thing. During the journey, one will no doubt

Homeopathy And Women
Number of Words: 3316 / Number of Pages: 13

... Only upon closer scrutiny do you actually realize that each facet of the work is something else. In Metamorphic art flowers become faces. Mourners over coffins become the face of Christ, a bicycle becomes a pair of celebrity glasses. His works are full of symbolism.

Faces come into focus at a distance and “metamorphose” into something entirely different under close observation.
His works are included in ...

... United States and all around the globe. Large media corporations are being gobbled up by even larger media corporations in a matter of months. With all this in light, conspiracy questions are rising to the surface, as to how much power and information these “mega-merged” companies hold. One more merger could mean massive control by only a few men over what is sent into American’s households. Now that networks are allowed to own their own programs, information flow could be corrupted beyond recognition. Should the people of the free world be wary of what these mergers have in store?
