 This is dedicated to my darling Shez sherpet. Shez is a passionate, loving friend, and the passion flower symbolizes the greatest act of love.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

The name was derived from the Christian crucifixion story. The 10 petals represent the disciples of Jesus who remained faithful. The five stamens represent the wounds Jesus received while on the cross. The knob-like stigmas represent the nail heads. And the fringe represents the crown of thorns.

Shez, I know you will love this picture.
