Is There a Story Behind Your Avatar, or Does It Symbolize Something?

Hi Seashore!

Well... Mine is a photo I took one day when I was in Ethiopia.
That morning, the weather looked threatening. A funeral took place that day and, at the end of the street, there was a long procession of people paying respect for the deceased, walking to the burial ground. I thought it was the beginning of a gloomy day.
I was following the crowd at distance and suddenly I stopped, for no reason. I looked on my right and there was a opening between the buildings and the leafy trees where I could see the sky. I saw the light of the sun piercing the clouds. It was beautiful. I tooked the picture. Few seconds later, it disappeared. It seemed I was the only one who saw that brief appearance. I could missed it if I stopped few meters before or if I didn't stop. At that moment, my perception of that day was different. I saw in the funeral all the love people had for the deceased. I saw the grey sky as the everlasting changing nature of the earth. In the evening, a tourist guide invited me to have dinner with his family and I shared some magical moments.
For me, this picture is a reminder: Life is rich and beautiful. If you turn your attention on bad thoughts, you could miss it.

Wonderfull picture Gibiforever .
Your story reminds me of a scene I have been witness to at the funeral of a friend of mine.
At the moment the coffin was buried into the ground we were all there paying our last
thoughts to him . Suddenly the sky opened up and a wonderfull shining sun appeared
to embrace us.
We all noticed it and realized that this was our friend saying good bye to us in spirit
and showing us that everything was allright .

Love Always

Mine represent with a vision of the place for where the spiritual rebirth of the world will commence. Is the New Jerusalem, the place of Kingdom of God on Earth a future saint pilgrimage place for all the Terra inhabitants. It will irradiate the pure love of God toward all of its creature and nothing impure or evil will exist on that place.

As been prophesied for thousands of years and 100 years ago by Sadhu Singar Singh:
