Isn't it ironic? Don't you think?
Most days I would just smile or maybe even like this picture. But with all that's happening in Israel these past few weeks I find it both infuriating and frustrating. Our country is now in turmoil regarding the LGBT members' rights to using surrogacy as a viable solution to becoming parents and on the other hand the new law defining Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish people while disregarding all others.
Looking at this picture one can see enormous hatred or total ignorance and a closer look shows a poster with the commandment Thou shalt not covet.
That may suggest an edited picture, but with my deep understanding of the religious sectors here I believe it is genuine. Because the sad truth is, there is one thing in common with most of our society, and that is ignorance, which of course goes both ways.
I choose to see ignorance and still hope there is a chance for change and that we're not taking the same road Europe took 70 years ago.
It's a new dawn it's a new day it's a new life for me... and I am feeling good
Wow, that was long, both the title and since the last time I posted anything. But a lot has changed in my life. After 7 months of some R&R of sea and sun I am back on the saddle working again (mixed feeling of course). Plus I moved into a new house and... Got a brand new electric scooter (my last one was stolen). So a lot is different and new, but still a lot is the same. I am still getting excited everytime I have a new presentation for a client, which is great. I guess that means I am still doing what I love (although what I love the most is the beach). I feel I have a chance again to influence people, both clients and end users with creative ideas and design. I believe that if you use these two, creative thinking and great design with respect and social responsibility it can actually improve the world. No, I don't see myself as a crusader all of a sudden, but I feel each of us can do something to better themselves and their surrounding, even when it's only advertising in my world and the only change it makes is a smile, that's fine by me.
