There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

With this photographic story made last year 2022, in the town of Limina, in the province of Messina (I made the previous story in the town of Calatabiano in the province of Catania), of the two typical traditional Sicilian religious feasts that have in common the devotion towards San Filippo, I end with this Saint (with the next two stories, I will take a break, with two topics of a different nature, different from the Sicilian religious feasts); Saint Philip is depicted in "black" color because a legend sees Him as the protagonist of a fight in the Underworld against Lucifer, from whose fight He comes out covered in soot. Saint Philip is a much celebrated saint here in Sicily, but not only that, He is also celebrated in the Salerno area, in Calabria (following the path he took during his life) up to the cult of Him present on the island of Malta. The proximity to Taormina (the country where I live and work), the towns of Calatabiano and Limina, made my task easier, in both towns the traditional feasts, take place over two days; in Limina during the first day the Saint is carried on the shoulders from a church located on the outskirts of the center of the town of Limina to "Murazzo locality", it is about 8 kilometers of uninterrupted running (except for a brief stop for recollection in the locality of "Durbi"), therefore eight days away (the so-called "octave") the Saint comes out carried on his shoulder with an "unbridled-fiendish" run from another church in Limina, arriving after a very steep and very tiring climb up to the top of " Calvario mountain", to then go back down and wander among the districts of the town, (and beyond, up to the district of Durbi, to then return): it is not a question of a simple wandering, in well-established moments, the Saint is "made to dance" with an unbridled coming and going on straight paths alternating with a whirling rotary movement on itself: this is a substantial difference with the float of Calatabiano, the latter is very heavy (about 12 quintals), it follows an impervious path, very steep and steep, with stone "steps" partially missing (the ancient path to reach the Norman castle), the "parody" with the exorcisms performed by the Black Saint, consists in the relative speed impressed on the Saint during the path, instead in Limina, the vara being lighter, allows to devotees rapid, rectilinear and swirling gaits, they too recall the convulsive movements made by the demoniacs subjected to the exorcisms of the Saint (a certain risk of rollover is inherent in both vare). In the town of Calatabiano San Filippo acquires the appellative of "Siriaco", i.e. coming from Syria, while in the town of Limina he acquires the appellation "d'Agira", from the name of the town, in the province of Enna, where He will die: is always the same saint (the physiognomy of the face changes slightly), in both statues the right hand is raised to send a blessing, or to perform an exorcism, the left hand holds a book (it is the "apotropaic" document that gave Him St. Peter to enable Him to defeat the forces of Evil). As in the previous story on San Filippo of Calatabiano, also in this one by Limina, in inserting the photographs I did not use a "chronological criterion" of the two days. Now a few brief notes on the life of this saint, also to try to understand how the cult of him was born in Sicily, but also in other countries. There are two sources that speak of San Filippo, called "the Chronicles of Eusebio d'Agira" and "the Chronicles of Athanasius", these chronicles are largely discordant with each other, except for the descriptions on His characteristics as a priest and miracle worker, on His ability to perform exorcisms by driving out demons from the possessed. He was probably born in Thrace (south-eastern region of the Balkan peninsula in 40 AD (?), at the time it was a Roman province, in the time of Arcadius, Eastern Roman emperor, born of a Syrian father and a Roman mother, in during his childhood he was educated to the principles of Christianity which was spreading also in those lands.He comes from Thrace to Rome, is ordained a priest by Peter, and it is by him that he is sent to Sicily (pagan land under Roman rule), with the task to evangelize those places and perform exorcisms; he disembarked at Capo Faro in Messina starting his mandate immediately, then he traveled along the eastern part of Sicily heading south towards Etna (here Limina and Calatabiano, affected by his passage, thanks to His ability as a healer and exorcist, they become devoted to him); thus he reaches the town of Agira (Enna), where He dies there after forty years of Apostolate on the island.
Con questo racconto fotografico, realizzato in due giornate nel maggio dello scorso anno 2022 nel paese di Limina, in provincia di Messina (il precedente racconto l’ho realizzato nel paese di Calatabiano in provincia di Catania), delle due tipiche feste religiose tradizionali siciliane che hanno in comune la devozione verso San Filippo, termino con questo Santo; Egli viene raffigurato di colore “nero” poiché una leggenda lo vede protagonista di una lotta negli Inferi contro Lucifero, dalla cui lotta ne viene fuori ricoperto di fuliggine. San Filippo è un santo molto festeggiato qui in Sicilia, ma lo è anche nel Salernitano, in Calabria (seguendo il suo percorso fatto in vita) fino ad arrivare al suo culto presente nell’isola di Malta. La vicinanza con Taormina (paese nel quale abito e lavoro), dei paesi di Calatabiano e Limina, mi ha facilitato il compito; in entrambi i paesi le feste si svolgono in due giornate; a Limina durante la prima giornata il Santo viene portato in spalla da una chiesa posta in lieve periferia dal centro del paese di Limina fino “al borgo Murazzo”, sono circa 8 chilometri di corsa ininterrotta (tranne una breve sosta di raccoglimento in località “Durbi”), quindi ad otto giorni di distanza (la cosiddetta “ottava”) il Santo esce portato in spalla con una corsa “sfrenata-indiavolata” da un’altra chiesa di Limina, giungendo dopo una ripidissima e faticosissima salita fino all’apice del “Monte Calvario”, per poi ridiscenderne e girovagare tra i quartieri del paese, (ed oltre, fino alla contrada di Durbi, per poi ritornare): non si tratta di un semplice girovagare, in momenti ben stabiliti, il Santo viene “fatto ballare” con uno sfrenato andirivieni su percorsi rettilinei alternato ad un movimento rotatorio vorticoso su se stesso: questa è una differenza sostanziale con la vara di Calatabiano, quest’ultima è pesantissima (circa 12 quintali), percorre un percorso impervio, molto ripido e scosceso, con “gradoni” in pietra molto alti in parte mancanti (l’antico percorso per giungere al castello Normanno), la “parodia” con gli esorcismi compiuti dal Santo Nero, consiste nella relativa velocità impressa al Santo durante il percorso, invece a
I did not take this photo, but if you see the GPS (OLD HEBRON ROAD, PLYMOUTH, NH) area, it was lost or stolen or otherwise missing in the general vicinity of this area.
This was my daughters cat , my younger son was taking care of it and he got out night before last.
This is the second cat that has gone missing since December and I suspect foul play.
Along with losing two of his best friends and his cousin this past year (as well as his brothers and sisters losing them) we may not have a very happy birthday for Winnie 😞

Ik heb deze foto niet gemaakt, maar als je het GPS-gebied ziet, is het verloren of gestolen of anderszins vermist in de algemene omgeving van dit gebied.
Dit was de kat van mijn dochter, mijn jongste zoon zorgde ervoor en hij kwam de vorige avond uit.
Dit is de tweede kat die sinds december is verdwenen en ik vermoed vals spel.
Samen met het verlies van twee van zijn beste vrienden en zijn neef van het afgelopen jaar (evenals zijn broers en zussen die ze verliezen), hebben we misschien geen erg gelukkige verjaardag voor Winnie 😞

No tomé esta foto, pero si ve el área de GPS, se perdió o fue robada o desapareció en las cercanías de esta área.
Este era el gato de mi hija, mi hijo menor lo estaba cuidando y salió la noche anterior.
Este es el segundo gato que ha desaparecido desde diciembre y sospecho que es un juego sucio.
Además de perder a dos de sus mejores amigos y a su primo el año pasado (así como a sus hermanos y hermanas que los perdieron), es posible que no tengamos un feliz cumpleaños para Winnie 😞

Non ho scattato questa foto, ma se vedi l'area GPS, è stata persa o rubata o altrimenti mancante nelle vicinanze generali di quest'area.
Questo era il mio gatto delle figlie, mio figlio minore se ne stava prendendo cura ed è uscito la sera prima dello scorso.
Questo è il secondo gatto che è scomparso da dicembre e sospetto che il gioco sia disgustoso.
Oltre a perdere due dei suoi migliori amici e suo cugino l'anno scorso (così come i suoi fratelli e sorelle li perdono) potremmo non avere un compleanno molto felice per Winnie 😞

Male American Goldfinch perched in the garden shadows. He is missing part of a toe. Thanks again for visiting.
You never really leave a place or person you love,
part of them you take with you ,
leaving a part of yourself behind !!
Far, you are far although I feel you, I even kiss you although I
can see you follow, every moment far more far is strange my
nostalgia of you, because you are here but you are not here.
Momo has been missing for one week. I miss her so much. I had been searching for her around my resident but I couldn't find her. Momo, please come back home. I'm still waiting for you here and can't be moved. I hope you're just fine. If you sick, just back home, I can look after you. I can bring you to the clinic just like before. Do you still remember, when you were sick, I brought you to the clinic with my dad and you just couldn't stop from meowing. And I said you will be okay. Momo, please come back home. I love you so much. :|

To me, this is the best season to visit Provence….Unfortunately, I can’t go there this year…But, every night, when I lay down on my bed, I smell it thanks to the Lavender Pillow that I’ve got from one of the smallest villages in Provence…. To the memory of my lovely Provence, I initiated a new photo series: Missing Provence. Within that project, every day I will share a photo that I took from my previous trips….to send my regards and love there…to nice people embellishing everything, to lavender soul and to its magic… Here is the 18th one… I miss you Provence… BeNowMeHere, Provence, France, 2015 via 500px bit.ly/2apXKka
At the time I didn't realize it was missing a spike. Up close this one looks more like an angry face than a smiley face.

Finnegan has been missing his Dad while he's away on his kitesurfing trip... This is one of Sean's T-shirts I put on Finn to send a note to him with;)
Btw, I've been trying to fill the void of his best friend but even so Finn sits in the window waiting for him to get home...
Wheels of fire, cosmic, rich, full-bodied honest victories over desperation.

Chasing Sophia
A poet you have birthed…
My passion floods without constraint!
Like a song without an audience…
Depths of aching my liturgy proclaims!
Innocent ears become a burden…
My ghost arises and this monk breaks!
A companion hand goes empty…
Without walls or path my journey begins!
Emptiness has found a sacred place…
Beyond bones my Sophia awaits!
-Robert Cowlishaw
Regulus: "My crown is missing! Have you seen it?"
Ymir: "Hmm,, maybe.."

Alice has been missing since September 11st 2010.
I'm very sad because she used to be here and come the meals.
I'm afraid the fox ate her. I have already lost 3 cats eaten by foxes.
This is the price of the freedom.
I wish you a wonderful weekend my friends and I promise that I will catch up on my comments as soon as possible.

The golf bag and trolley, on the left, appeared to have no owner! I presume he was looking for his "lost" ball!

Our cat Musti is missing for four days now. We are so worried and we miss him a lot. He was my best friend in the garden for the last fifteen years. Musti, where are you?
You were by my side at one point But i had to leave,
I won't be lOng ~
Till then boo , just sing my old sOng~
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile...
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
