I have been reported by a FB friend of mine that my beloved friend and great artist from Syria, Housain Sabsaby's house was bombed and he was
seriously injured.
I've telephoned him just before to express my sorrow. His voice was full of suffering.
I am praying for this inhumane civilwar in Syria ends up at once.

That is so upsetting - really brings things into focus - my heart goes out to him all the others caught up in this.

This is indeed extreemly upsetting. My thoughts and prayers go out to him. Wishing him a full recovery.
I also have him on Facebook, and despite the war going on around him he was making ouds which were becoming some of most beautifull ouds I have ever
seen.
It was one of the most contrasting thing I have ever seen, the making of something so beautifull while being surounded by something so ugly as this
war has proven to be.

I really hope the bloodshed ends as soon as possible.

world)

Is art the only reasonable thing in this world!?
Another thought to Housain.

Hello friends,
today I got the following message from Husein:
Welcome dear friend
I'm fine now
My house bombed
I am inside
I have some wounds and burns
Wait a good chance to get out
Dead in the street
Thank you from my heart
All friendly to you and your family
Thank you
I am so happy that he and his family are well, not happened more to them!
It is such a horror what is happening in Syria, how the people there are treated and have to suffer and the country where alle these people live is
destoyed and the old culture is disappearing.
I hope so much that that the world's community is leaving the field of having good words and wishes. But that does not mean that weapons are the
solution. We all know that it isn't.
All the best to Husein and his family!
