I have not read a book before but the way you are telling me I will definitely read it and from what little I have read the post it is known that people in earlier times used to take money from their children and give them to other people.

Hello @djbravo,
Thank you for reading. I do recommend the book, and it is free on line so no barrier there. I read everything free if I can :)
Terrible things done to people, and that people do. One of the reasons I make collages is to forget about all that. Otherwise, it can make me quite sad.
I love your collages! In college, our son took up collage when he suffered a broken heart. Most of the images he chose were bright, happy, upbeat. Some fantastical (cloud walking).

No wonder I love your work so much - visual and written. :)
Every day I must combat the tendency to feel sad for all the injustice and misfortune...
"Survivor's Guilt" keeps me from totally rejoicing over my own blessings.
(Yes, I'm working on that!!! Just, it's slow going.... others are hurting, and all too often, loved ones resist efforts to "help" - so we stand back and stop trying)....
I think the ability to look away is a survival mechanism. Sometimes it's hard (impossible), but we have to get through each day :)
So, I'm planning a collage about nature right now🐝
Most welcome dear. I will read it soon and i always like to learn things from others.
