Won't you give me a ride

Take me to the higher plane

The plane of being

The plane of dignity

The plane of existence

Smile on saturday - From the ground.

To this assembly-place, be praised.

The existence of him, who brought us.

Awoken within lifeless-sorrowed bodies,

The existence of him, who dressed us.

We do not inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

This is a proverb of a tribe of Native Americans today, unfortunately, disappeared because the brothers did not understand the importance of existence.

It is dedicated to them.

...

when I am another, my acts

are more mine when they are the acts

of others, in order to be I must be another,

leave myself, search for myself

in the others, the others that don't exist

if I don't exist, the others that give me

total existence, I am not,

there is no I, we are always us,

life is other, always there,

further off, beyond you and

beyond me, always on the horizon,

life which unlives us and makes us strangers,

that invents our face and wears it away...

A solitary pansy ekes out an existence in a narrow crack between the paving stones where ants have disturbed the soil below allowing it to find enough nutrients to survive.

If you surrendered to the air, you could ride it.

IN EXPLORE 29-11-2022 St Matthew's Church was consecrated in 1837 to be the parish church for the new parish of Richhill. The building itself was repurposed from its prior existence as the market house for the village, which had been built in 1752.

Happy Slider Sunday

Something different and high key.

Older image. Pre-pandemic.

I like the way this sits alone. Seems a shame. I have never seen any sign of occupation.

Happy Window Wednesday

Some roses for you, jut out of cam! Have a great weekend. I'll try to catch up, but I will be occupied helping my daughter to mount a railing in her garden and a fence to prevent accidents to my grandchildren.
