drawing challenge HEALTH

The wonderful Ariane gave us the theme HEALTH this week 
and as I pondered over this theme I thought about symbols which are associated 
with healthcare, the red cross, the aesculapian snake with a rod as 
a symbol for human medicine (and the invers version of the red cross... see below)



sign found in brugge


Usually we don't worry about health unless we lost it and something hurts, 
then we're aware about the vulnerability of our bodies. 
Health consists not only body but soul and mind also and to quote Voltaire, who said:
 
"Because it is conducive to health, I have decided to be happy."

... you sometimes need mood booster for spiritual as well as physical well-being ...

 
... namely: C H O C O L A T E


In this sense, I wish you an enjoyable and healthy weekend 
 and don't forget to look at Arianes fabulous blog
for all the others artists ideas about this complex theme.

mjammm, liebste Barbara,
Schweizer Schoki!
and Voltaire... a good attitude!
The aesculapian snake with the rod shows us the ups and downs, no? the changes of having a good or a not so good feeling in our body and mind.

Thank you for playing, Dear!
Love
xo Ariane.
