this creature is entirely of my own creation, including the photos i used! and i am pretty proud of the results. i plan to make this available as a print. comments welcome and appreciated.
Ouh, the pressure of this one! When you go for it, then you go for it. Pain/anger that goes away because you let it out through the pic? For me, that is a heavy one. It lashes out. Is that just me? Then I gotta think about what you have touched.
My honest opinion for you as I have given it for the Afghan hound: Make this one important only if you feel that it is a kind of a life-saver and helps you - hm - reorganize?
incidentally it is also my face used to make this image -- not sure what that means, if anything, lol.
it does lash out, a little. it's supposed to, i think. i have not really discovered all what emotion and thought is hidden in there ... but there is some anger ... and yes - it's a release of sorts.
Through effective change in myself, first and foremost, I can effect change in my surroundings in a most genuine and compassionate manner. This means challenging my self to compassionate, encouraging, genuine and hostile-free exchanges. It also means contemplating my reaction to the thoughts, feelings and expressions of others, prior to acting upon them. When negative energy and thinking threaten to darken my path, I can brighten my way through the light of acceptance and positive energy. I choose ~ it starts with me.

"Meanwhile, let us have a sip of tea. The afternoon glow is brightening the bamboos, the fountains are bubbling with delight, the soughing of the pines is heard in our kettle. Let us dream of evanescence, and linger in the beautiful foolishness of things." ~ Okakura Kakuzo, The Book of Tea
"All of us live in exile in a real way. As St. Paul puts it, we see as 'through a glass darkly,' through an enigma, separated always partially from God and each other." ~ Ron Rolheiser, OMI

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” ~ Steve Jobs
"An illustration of activity in stillness is in the spinning of a top. At its greatest speed there is most apparent stillness, and we say the top is then ‘asleep.’” ~Isabella Mears
"A certain skinlessness goes with the ability to observe and describe feelings. This does not make for blithe unconsciousness. Writers are doubters, compulsives, self-flagellants. The torture only stops for brief moments." ~ Erica Jong, Fear of Fifty
