Azini Photography - The boys

Mommy looks very tired.  Up with Levi and a huge fever...poor little thing.

Azini Photography - Randoms

My sweet neighbors daughter from the islands. Her family makes jewelery.

My wedding ring that I designed. Kirk Kirkpatrick made it in Austin. My mothers stone is in the center.

 

Took more pictures of my blankets which I am so proud of. I think I have become a Hippie. Goodness! Please visit my etsy site.

Azini Photography - Master Levi Blanket

Master Levi's Blanket. Now both my boys can have peaceful dreams. I wonder what they dream about at night under the blankets made with a mother's love. I wonder what it was like to live back before technology prevailed. Theater, children running free with their hand whitled wagons, and horses. Women sitting in clusters, niddle pointing, and sewing. I think that would be so much fun, almost like the Amish live. You know the Amish build each other's home without a monetary fee. It is an event with all families. Amazing. I wish society could reverse a little.
I am selling them on etsy too.

These are the songs I listen to for each square.

Azini Photography - God.

Professor : You are a Christian, aren’t you, son ?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, you believe in GOD ?

Student : Absolutely, sir.

Professor : Is GOD good ?

Student : Sure.

Professor: Is GOD all powerful ?

Student : Yes.

Professor: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn’t. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Student was silent.)

Professor: You can’t answer, can you ? Let’s start again, young fella. Is GOD good?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Is satan good ?

Student : No.

Professor: Where does satan come from ?

Student : From … GOD …

Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?

Student : Yes.

Professor: So who created evil ?

(Student did not answer.)

Professor: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?

Student : Yes, sir.

Professor: So, who created them ?

(Student had no answer.)

Professor: Science says you have 5 Senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son, have you ever seen GOD?

Student : No, sir.

Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your GOD?

Student : No , sir.

Professor: Have you ever felt your GOD, tasted your GOD, smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any sensory perception of GOD for that matter?

Student : No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.

Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student : Yes.

Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?

Student : Nothing. I only have my faith.

Professor: Yes, faith. And that is the problem Science has.

Student : Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Professor: Yes.

Student : And is there such a thing as cold?

Professor: Yes.

Student : No, sir. There isn’t.

(The lecture theater became very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.

(There was pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)

Student : What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?

Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, well you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?

Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man ?

Student : Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Professor: Flawed ? Can you explain how?

Student : Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good GOD and a bad GOD. You are viewing the concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

Professor: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.

Student : Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)

Student : Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class was in uproar.)

Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

(The class broke out into laughter. )

Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on faith, son.

Student : That is it sir … Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and moving.

P.S.

I believe you have enjoyed the conversation. And if so, you’ll probably want your friends / colleagues to enjoy the same, won’t you?

Forward this to increase their knowledge … or FAITH.

By the way, that student was EINSTEIN.

Azini Photography - My Master Ian

My latest creation for my Master Ian. Done with a Mother's Love, lots of dreaming, and lots of music therapy.

Azini Photography - Ana

So Boudoirs. Racey Subject. But not at all in my opinion. I get home from my shoot and my dad (76) says, "Should you be doing things like that?" As I am remembering that he is a guy, I thinking, surely he remembers Betty Page right. So I sat my dad down and said yes. Its all a matter of perception dad. Ana, has had two babies...twins. Her body has been blessed with maternity, and swelling feet, and stretch marks. As a woman, after your children get older, and the body grows tired, you look at yourself in the mirror and say...what happened to me. If anybody explores having boudoirs, that means they have a vivid spirit. And if you are doing it for your husband, I cant think of a better gift I can give two people to rekindle the spark of romance in their lives. THAT is the most rewarding feeling to me. I LOVE that. Its all a matter of perception dad. Are you going to judge it, or are you going to look at it as a gift of love. Its like my big tattoo. People look at me and said I am crazy. But then I ask them, when you read a romance novel, or even the bible, how does it make you feel? Its ink on paper...well, when I look in the mirror, I have that same feeeling. I feel beautiful.
Now Ana, wow, I dont think the blog is going to be long enough to express what an AMAZING individual and character she is. She has a beautiful halo surrounding her. Her mother I know is definatley part of her thriving spirit. She is creative, passionate, hold her stance so gracefully. Alex and Ana....thats definately chemical love.
At the end of the shoot, she reminded me of the advice I gave her, when I told her that I was worried about not being here for my children when they grow up. She said "you are what you think". Why are you worried honey...YOU told me that. Kisses Ana.
