Our prayers can do a lot for the situation in BKK. Please keep safe.

Very lovely photos, dear! That's a pious scene amidst the crisis.
Glad to hear you're safe, too. Since I'm across Chao Phrya River, I'm lucky still get the opportunity to go to work as I have lots of deadlines to meet.

I'm so sorry you can't go out. This violence is so heart breaking. The monks are a beautiful contrast to the violent destruction.

Namaste!

At least some people are publicly for peace. The newspapers report only the unrest, of course. Be safe!
