edit:

here is the story behind the drawing...

This drawing is inspired by, and dedicated to a really huge teddy bear who had has been a shoulder to cry on at certain times of my life. Wierd as it may be, that bear had has been a real consolation for me when the going got rough.

So, this bear and I was living at my older cousins apartment all through my university years, then I moved out. The bear stayed...

On my latest visit to my cousin's, I figured out that she wanted to get rid of the bear, give it away to someone or something.. I really wanted bear to stay, or at least take it home myself, but my hands were tied because i felt i didn't have the say on such matters since I didn't live there anymore and I wasn't able to take it myself at that moment

So.. I just had to let the bear go... Then I felt terrible.. But it was too late, the bear was gone.. God knows where! I didn't even ask about it, I repent that I didn't figure out a way to keep it.

That is what triggered that drawing although I have to make it clear that the bear in the drawing does not resemble the one mentioned here, and I do not consubstantiate myself with the mermaid

I must let you know one last thing; later on i went to visit my other cousin and when I got to her apartment I figured out that she wanted to keep the bear when she heard that her sister (my older cousin) wanted to give the bear away I was so happy when I saw the bear there

So that's it... I followed 's advice and brought the story across...

s to all of you..
