And you are welcome, finch! Rise up and play
Those liquid notes that steal men's heart away;
Like Moses you have seen the flames burnt high
On Sinai slopes there you long to fly,
Like him, avoid cruel Pharoah’s hand, and seek
Your promised home Sinai’s mountain peak.
There you will understand unspoken words
Too subtle for the hearts of mortal birds.

The Conference of The Birds
Farid Ud-Din Attar

hungrykebulur

Tatkala kita menghitung hasil atau rezeki, apakah
kita juga memikirkan mereka yang sedang
menggeletar kebuluran...masing-masing dengan
masalah sendiri. Dunia...dunia...

while we are counting our gains, do we ever spare a thought
for those who are shivering in extreme hunger?

If I were Ma Lien, what would I paint with my magic brush?

"If the definition of a diary is a book in which one keeps a daily record of events and experiences, Rudy’s drawings are a form of 'diaristic' interpretation. He goes about his day-to-day life observing nature and the most mundane things he can find and re-interprets them. He approaches everything with honesty and sensitivity. He has demonstrated tremendous interest and has developed a good understanding of his subject matter. As a result, one will find a work that is whimsical but yet elegant and at the same time lyrical."
