“Never say that you can't do something, or that something seems impossible, or that something can't be done, no matter how discouraging or harrowing it may be; human beings are limited only by what we allow ourselves to be limited by: our own minds. We are each the masters of our own reality; when we become self-aware to this: absolutely anything in the world is possible.

 

Master yourself, and become king of the world around you. Let no odds, chastisement, exile, doubt, fear, or ANY mental virii prevent you from accomplishing your dreams. Never be a victim of life; be it's conqueror.”

― Mike Norton

The Dymocks Building. Built in 1928.

The Palazzo architectural style.

428 George Street.

The City of Sydney.

 

The Dymocks Building, aka 'The Block', was conceived by architect F.H.B. Wilton in the 'Interwar Commercial Palazzo Style'. It was to house the 'less elite' or 'bazaar' style of retailing, with specialty businesses offering a wide range of more unusual goods and services. At street-level it was the home for the bookshop which has developed into the iconic modern Dymocks Bookstore, Sydney's premier bookstore. See:

Encountered by me today, Monday 5th June, 2023, when I visited Dymocks Bookstore in George Street, Sydney.

The basilica of Saint Achilles is one of the oldest monuments in the area of Prespes. The church was built in 983 or 986 by Bulgarian Tsar Samuel to house the relics of Larisa's patron Saint Achilles that Samuel had taken when the city conquered by Bulgarians. The name of the Saint, which was given to the largest island of small Prespa Lake where the church of Saint Achilles is situated, survived like its ruins through centuries of severe wars and many different conquerors.

Sunday is car free day...

 

texture by ~Brenda Starr~

Someone once told me always live for the little things in life.

Live for 5 am sunrise and 5 pm sunsets

where you’ll see the colours in the sky

that don’t usually belong.

 

Live for the road trips and bike rides

with music in your ears and

the wind in your hair.

Live for the day when you’re surrounded

by your favourite people who make you realise

that the world is not a

cold harsh place.

 

Live for the little things because

they will make you realise that this is what life is about

this is what means to be

alive.

At This Point In My Life

 

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViWW98U3Iao

 

Done so many things wrong

I don't know if I can do right

Oh, I, oh, I've

Done so many things wrong

I don't know if I can do right

 

At this point in my life

I've done so many things wrong

I don't know if I can do right

If you put your trust in me

Hope I won't let you down

If you give me a chance I'll try

 

You see it's been a hard road

The road I'm traveling on

And if I take your hand

I might lead you down the path to ruin

I've had a hard life

Just saying it so you'll understand

Oh, that right now, right now

I'm doing the best I can

 

At this point in my life

 

At this point in my life

Though I've mostly walked in the shadows

I'm still searching for the light

Won't you put your faith in me?

We both know that's what matters

If you give me a chance I'll try

 

You see, I've been climbing stairs

But mostly stumbling down

I've been reaching high

Always losing ground

You see I've conquered hills

I still have mountains to climb

Oh, and right now, right now

I'm doing the best I can

 

At this point in my life

 

Before we take a step

Before we walk down that path

Before I make any promises

Before you have regrets

Before we talk commitment

Let me tell you of my past

All I've seen and all I've done

The things I'd like to forget

 

At this point in my life

 

At this point in my life

I'd like to live as if only love mattered

As if redemption was in sight

As if the search to live honestly

Is all that anyone needs

No matter if you find it

 

You see when I've touched the sky

Earth's gravity has pulled me down

But now I've reconciled that in this world

Birds and angels get the wings to fly

If you can believe in this heart of mine

Oh, if you can give it a try

Then I'll reach inside and find and give you

All the sweetness that I have

 

Oh, at this point in my life

"If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath." - Amit Ray

[... a winter adventure ...]

Every time I turn on the news, my heart hardens a little and I feel myself becoming less sure that we will ever have peace. I want to believe that people are good but lately there are so many examples of bad behavior that it is overwhelming me a bit.

 

For example, one of our local farms that allows visitors had to remind people not to harass the animals. Apparently guests have been chasing the ducks around and someone broke a ducks neck then took a huge rock and dropped it on the clutch of eggs she was protecting. Why would anyone do something so heartless? I cannot understand this cruelty and sit here stunned and heartbroken.

 

The political news is no better. I feel like I want to withdraw a bit but know without hope and action the bad will win and I cannot let that happen. I am sending more messages of love out into the world, maybe it will catch on and spread.

Timmy der Eroberer sitzt gerne auf dem Baldrian-Topf

 

Happy Caturday 27.2.2021 "Purrsonality"

 

This week I had to take Timmy to the vet again because he was injured in one ear and smelled bad from this ear. It was one of his regular fight injuries, which had become infected. He got an antibiotic shot and I got a bottle of iodine solution.

Amazingly, he let me rub his ear with an iodine cloth two or three times a day. He probably knows that I am helping him. However, he loves it already longer, if I rub with my nose in his ear :-)))

 

I also found white fur under his claws - so his fight with Sammy was probably a draw ;-) I hope the two of them will stay out of each other's way for a while.

 

The two rascals often fight at the border of their territories - the creek. Three times in the distance of about six weeks they both landed in the brook. I then always need 4-5 towels to get him halfway dry. Then he gets grounded until he is completely dry and also to cool down.

 

Life as a daddy of a conqueror is not boring and not cheep! This time: 111.14€ :-)

 

Diese Woche musste ich mit Timmy mal wieder zum Tierarzt, weil er an einem Ohr verletzt war und aus diesem Ohr schlecht roch. Es war eine seiner regelmäßigen Kampf-Verletzungen, die sich entzündet hatte. Er bekam eine Antibiotikum-Spritze und ich ein Fläschen Jod-Lösung.

Erstaunlich: er läßt mich sein Ohr mit einem Jod-Läppchen abreiben. Er weiß wohl, dass ich ihm helfe. Allerdings liebt er es ja schon länger, wenn ich mit meiner Nase in seinem Ohr reibe :-)))

 

Ich fand unter seinen Krallen auch weißes Fell - sein Kampf mit Sammy war also wohl ein Unentschieden ;-) Ich hoffe, die beiden gehen sich jetzt mal eine zeitlang aus dem Weg.

 

Die beiden Schlawiner kämpfen ja oft an der Grenze - dem Bach. Dreimal im Abstand von etwa sechs Wochen sind sie dabei beide im Bach gelandet. Ich brauche dann immer 4-5 Handtücher um ihn halbwegs trocken zu bekommen. Dann bekommt er Hausarrest, bis er ganz trocken ist und auch um sich abzuregen.

 

Das Leben als Daddy eines Eroberes ist nicht langweilig und nicht billig! Diesmal waren es 111,14€, allerdings mit einer Wurmkur :-)

 

Captivating, entertaining, catchy songs brilliantly delivered with Ruarri Joseph’s languid style, superbly backed by Naomi Holmes on bass and Harry Harding on drums.

Kirtipur (Nepal) is a Municipality and an ancient city of Nepal. The Newars are the natives of Kipoo (Kirtipur). It is located in the Kathmandu Valley 5 km south-west of the city of Kathmandu. It is one of the five dense municipalities in the valley, the others being Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur and Madhyapur Thimi. It is one of the most famous and religious places to visit. Many people visit this place not only for its natural environment but also to visit temples. The city was listed as a UNESCO tentative site in 2008.

 

Kirtipur's history dates from 1099 A.D. It was part of the territory of Lalitpur at the time of the invasion of the Kathmandu Valley by the Gorkhali king Prithvi Narayan Shah in the 18th century.

 

In 1767, Kirtipur was annexed to the Gorkhali kingdom by Prithvi Narayan Shah following the Battle of Kirtipur. He conquered the town on his third attempt, after entering it by trickery. After this, he cut off the noses of the people (both male and female) over 13 years of age in the city.

 

This was the site of an inspirational peaceful demonstration of the people in the 2006 mass uprising that overthrew the powers of the king. It is considered to be an anti-monarchy city due to its bitter history against the Shah dynasty whose modern founder conquered the city insultingly, which was followed by negligence of the administration and development by subsequent rulers.
