I am an artist and writer. This is a collection of film, fashion, art, personal entries and other things that represent the elaborate circus going on in my head. :)))

Throughout history the Zanzibar archipelago has served as a staging post for Indian Ocean traders and explorers. In 1698 it became part of the overseas holdings of Oman and a sultanate of Omani origin established its capital there in the mid 19th century. This distinctive history has had a marked impact on Zanzibari arts and culture which reveal Persian, Arab, Indian, Portuguese, British and African influences.
This hinged silver bracelet is decorated with rows of conical bosses of different sizes and bands of filigree work. A label on the bracelet notes that it was ‘made by the natives at Zanzibar by order of the late Sultan, and brought to England by his friend the late Monsieur J.B. Camosin’. The Sultan may have been Hamoud bin Mohammed (1853-1902). Zanzibar became a British protectorate in 1890. Hamoud had close ties with Britain: he was decorated by Queen Victoria for his role in ending Zanzibar’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade and his son and heir, Ali bin Hamud, was educated in England.

Bitter atheists…

…I am sick and tired of bitter atheists and devil worshipers (yes there are real devil worshipers) online spewing negativity.

I am not a religious person but I am spiritual and believe in God. I feel that religion divides man but I also feel that people should not put all of their faith in man. That is why it is important to believe in a divine being of perfection (not yourself because YOU ARE NOT PERFECT—to those people who are self-worshipers).

A lot of these online atheist bullies are mostly young people between the ages of 16-28, college-aged, and miserable. An atheist can respect religious people but not believe in their religion just like a religious person can respect a person who do not believe in God. It all comes down to respect.

I respect other people’s religions except for Satanism, Luciferianism and any other religion that believes in conjuring evil spirits. I will respect a Satanist, Luciferian or a black magician but I will NOT respect their beliefs; I will respect them as a person but I do not respect evil. I do respect Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, and other religions that teaches peace, love, and salvation.

The thing that irritates me is how atheists flock to religious websites and spew anger. I rarely see religious people flock to atheist sites.

I am sick of people that waste their time spreading misery and anger. There are too many bitter, angry and hateful young people.
