Open Minds
George & Henry (12)

Our persons face represents how it doesn't matter what skin, eye, or hair colour you are, as long as you have an open mind you are closer to your God, or the founder of your religion or, in the case of Buddhists, Buddha. No matter what religion you are, it is all the same.

The different coloured hills represent place, such as the red hills of Cyprus, a yellow desert, orange sand dunes, green fields, silver for somewhere supernatural and the blue represents the seas. The two houses, one a shack and one a mansion, show how, no matter how rich or poor or how good or bad the weather is, you can still be close to each other. The mind shows that the person is open-minded. The thoughts coming out of his head show he is thinking outside the box. The hills also represent openness.

No matter hw rich, poor, happy, sad, belief or no belief, eye colour, skin colour, hair colour or place where you live, as long as you have a big heart and an open mind, you are able to live in a community of varying beliefs and being respectful to others.
