This piece goes with my Emily Dickinson series, where I create art to go with her poetry. Te poem for this piece is; To be alive – is Power – Existence – in itself – Without a further function – Omnipotence – Enough – To be alive – and Will! ‘Tis able as a God – The Maker – of Ourselves – be what – Such being Finitude! Description The essence of all religions is summed up in this poem. This poem explains what it is to be enlightened. Thich Nhat Hanh said, "The capacity to wake up, to understand, and to love is called Buddha nature." The bible verse Psalm 46:10 also relates, "Be still, and know that I am God!" "To be alive – is Power-" Just simply BEING alive is a most powerful function. My Mother–In–Law and Father who both had near death experiences this year, have proved the importance of the power of life. With an oxygen mask over her nose, my Mother-In-Law, became the Ganesha, an elephant headed Hindu God who removes obstacles, and paves the way for new beginnings. Because not only is it most powerful to be alive, but to be alive and "Will" is being "God". We are, "The Maker – of Ourselves." Whether you are Hindu, Buddha, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Gay, Straight, Cat, or Dog, make love and compassion your "Finitude". I want to thank my parents for their gift of sending my family and I to The Chautauqua Institute. It is there that I had the pleasure of meditating with, and listening to a Tibetan Buddha, Khenpo Monlam, and attending an I opening lecture on Hinduism by Vasudha Narayanan.

Pondell creates visual art from the inspiring poetry of Emily Dickinson, which can be seen on pondellart.com. Pondell's goal is to give the viewer what Emily has given her, a deeper awareness and new perspective on nature and life in general. Pondell graduated with a BFA from Denison University, then went on to study figurative drawing in Toledo, OH, Cincinnati, OH, and then Louisville, KY. Her concentration on the figure led to her passion for studying the top physical condition of Muhammad Ali. He is "the Greatest of All Time", and she was honored as a local artist to exhibit at the Muhammad Ali Center. That dedication and discipline to be the best at what you do by Muhammad Ali, is also a shared characteristic of Emily Dickinson. Although never famous in her lifetime she worked on her poetry like the world depended on it. She had confidence about her and her work that never subsided. Pondell hopes to do the same in art.
