Sometimes it's so beautiful -
The rainbow reflections on a drop of oil -
Dripped into the shape of a heart ...
BUT
A single drop of oil
Can contaminate a million drops of water.
That we sometimes don't care -
Is enough to make me cry.

So beautiful, and so toxic. You wish it wasn't there, and yet it's beautiful to see. Ambivalence.
Have a great weekend, hugs :-)
Magical! Pity we know that this symbolises toxic consequences!
A bittersweet image.
Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Interesting. Sunny summed it up very well, bittersweet.
Bien vu !
This is just gorgeous Cea...another big time keeper!!!
I need to ask you if you would mind if I used one of your hearts in a collage I am making...with full credits of course and I would Email you a full size copy to keep.
No pressure in this if you don't want your work used like that I understand...please let me know what you decide...Love you
I know what you mean Clytie! The heart is still beautiful though.
Great find!
" Happy Weekend Reflections! "
what you have said here reminds me of a quote I found the other day:
The least pain in our little finger gives us more concern and uneasiness than the destruction of millions of our fellow-beings. -William Hazlitt, essayist (1778-1830)
I cry too, when I see this kind of things, even if the shape make it more lovable...
It is beautiful--dangerously lovely.
“May God give you...For every storm a rainbow, for every tear a smile, for every care a promise and a blessing in each trial. For every problem life sends,a huge red HEART to hold YOU , a faithful friend to share, for every sigh a sweet song and an answer for each prayer.”

I'm amazed at how you keep finding them!
Oil and water can be pretty to look at. But at the end of the day, they don't belong together.
