Baby Asian Elephant in Tall Grass



Baby Asian Elephant in Tall Grass

Hii!!!!!How cute???I'll see one live one day :) (I mean,not in a zoo!)
I have this thing for Africa (I know this is an asian puppy,but elephants just remind me straight of Africa)..don't know, I've never been there,but I've always thought that it's one of the very important things I want to see/do before I die.
Other places I want to see before "the big day":Patagonia and Antarctica.
For Antarctica it's been the same as for Africa.I've always known that one day I'll be there,even just for a day.It's like something you feel you have to do and you don't even know why..funny,isn't it?I think it's a kind of call..ever had this feeling, like something is just somewhere waiting for you?I do.I do feel things and it just kills me to know that I might not do/see/try/live them. When I think about this,I mean the fact that you feel bound so strongly to do something without a reason I start wondering whether we're really living only one of all the possible lives,and that maybe we've really been somewhere before,or been something.
I really don't know, I'm still trying to understand the things that really make sense for me, and what are the things I really believe in.
I believe in life,this is something I'm sure about.For the rest ..
I'm not awaiting anybody to come up one day and tell me the secrets of life,the origins of sin,the sense of our living.I try hard to find all of this everyday by myself,though.I think this is actually the main sense of our living, as far as we walk on this Earth. Beside the reasons that each and every one of us can find, of course.Never been a woman with all the answers in her pocket, and I'm just learning to live with it.At my best.I don't know what happens next,don't know if there is another life,another chance,another perspective.If there is, and I've been mistaking all my life about it,well..even better.I'd be glad.For now I just deal with what I have here and now, and it's complicated enough sometimes.. ;)I'd love to hear some opinions on this.
Well..going back to this lovely puppy..I wish all the best to this cutie!

First pandora-like bangle!

 

Here we go,my first picture..I made this bracelet a few days ago, but haven't list it in the shop yet.
It's my first attempt at a pandora style..I like it.I think.There's something I may change but haven't figure out what.
Anyway I still think it's pretty, with its neutral colours and the red spots here and there.And of course, lots of metal..I love,love,love metal!

Something important

The first thing I'd like to tell you about is a great initiative of many Etsy sellers:they've set up a shop to which we are donating items to raise money for Haiti.
All the proceedings will go to DoctorsWithoutBorders.
They're doing really well and they've been working very,very hard.Great people!
Please check it out,it's just another way to donate for a cause, the only difference is that you'll get a great item in return for your donation!And totally free, as we sellers are also paying the shipping!A huge thank you to the volunteers that have stood up and offered to run and organize the shop.Amazing.
Please check it out:

Hello, bonjour,ciao!!

Aaaww...!! I made it!!My blog,my very own blog,and my first post..I'm so thrilled!
So..my name is Arianna, just so you know.I've just finished to stare at the blog settings window,in total trance,awaiting an epiphany about what the name of this blog should be. I know what you're probably thinking...a bit poor for being the brainchild of a long expected epiphany!But I've come to the conclusion that a blog is a diary,and what do you write in your diary if not what comes in and out of your life everyday?
But you don't get the whole picture usually,so..just fragments.Voila,this is it.
So..I'll throw in my thoughts about things and people everytime I'll get the chance to do so.You'll also see my and other people's creations,of course.
Oh and..bear with me if sometimes you'll see some funny word or expression..I'm not a native english speaker,so bear with me and have fun with my mistakes!! :)
Hope you'll like it here,have a nice saturday!
