I have been weeks away from this man. I met him when Sheree and I were in Rhode Island. He was standing at the top of an escalator, pointing a camera at us.

I grew to love him in the period of four days. I grew to love him like a true friend.

Let me tell you a little about Brian. I tread carefully, because I don't want to betray any confidences. But Brian is utterly devoted to his wife Gina...which speaks volumes to me. It simply means that we understand each other...and the core values that rule our hearts.

Brian has undergone a (an?) horrific disease. It has cost him all senses of taste. But he can still smell and when he smells he remembers the way it used to taste and he is content with that. When he packed a lunch for Sheree and me on the train, he included a note. I never even got notes in my lunchbox from my mother.

I loved talking to him and I loved hearing what he thought about everything from the burial of Ted Kennedy to the plight of street people. Frankly, I miss him.

I think of Gina calling him to the computer, to read to him these things. I can see the room in my mind's eye. I know it well.

It makes me smile because I know as he hears them that our friendship is cemented. Brian: I think of you often. And I miss you. So there.

Here he is standing looking out at the ocean. I wonder what he is thinking.

I promised not to show his face...but I think this image shows the heart of my friend in Rhode Island.

Even after all these days, the impression he has left on my heart is as indelible as ink. I look forward to sitting quietly with you again, Brian, sipping a beer and listening to our wives talking happily together upstairs...and knowing all is well in their worlds.

He doesn't photograph stuff...but he helps those of us who do. So say hello to a hero of mine. His name is Brian.

Be well, dear friend.

Best Friend Moment by Catarina

O dia pode ter sido cansativo ao ponto de não sentir o corpo e a cabeça pode doer tanto ao ponto de não conseguir escutar o pensamento.

O dia pode estar chuvoso e não me apetecer mais nada que não seja ficar na cama, no silêncio e no escuro.

O dia pode ser tão triste que me faça chorar nas almofadas e aninhar-me no sofá.

O dia é o dia-a-dia contigo.

Porque quando estou cansada queres brincar.

Porque quando o dia está chuvoso fazes-me sair da cama.

Porque quando estou triste aninhas-te comigo.

Porque és um amigo para o dia-a-dia e para a vida. Porque és o meu melhor amigo.

too many tears

have already been shed

let's stop this hatred

before we're all

Dead

kidnapping, assassinations, amputations, decapitations

what's wrong with our Nations?

when will it end?

let it be said

I am searching for a

Friend

find my path

lead the way

to a place where we can

play

here is not where I want to

Stay

I have had enough with this horrible stuff !

when will it end?

haven't we had enough?

there is nothing more to gain

are we all insane?

It's a fucking shame !

find a friend

let's append

while our hearts

are on the mend

let's put all these blasphemies

to an end

share a smile

lend a hand

put all the ARMS down

weapons of destruction

they are keeping us from

positive production

find a friend

instead

They will be with you till the END

Thank You, Friend

Thank you, friend, for all the things

That mean so much to me--

For concern and understanding

You give abundantly.

Thanks for listening with your heart;

For cheering me when I'm blue;

For bringing out the best in me;

And just for being you.

Thanks for in-depth conversation

That stimulates my brain;

For silly times we laugh out loud;

For things I can't explain.

For looking past my flaws and faults;

For all the time you spend;

For all the kind things that you do,

Thank you; thank you, friend.

My good friend Mia needed some time to unwind and to be pampered for the weekend. We all need to find the time to be kind to yourself and learn to relax. I'm so glad that she came over and that we had such a great time. :)

Friend, 1977 by Alec Williams

Here's a shot of my old place at 814 Gregg Street. You can find another shot of this corner on this web site. A friend posed for me one night, but it's been so long, I can't remember who. I think it was perhaps Elise Knox, but I'm not sure. I notice that one of the LP's on the floor is from the old Angel label (via EMI), when they came in plain, brown wrappers. One of the books is THE ARMADA by Mattingly. There's also a small, black radio visible. I used to listen to WRR-FM on this. That's the Dallas, Texas classical station. The radio wasn't very good, and it would pick up interference from air traffic right in the middle of your favorite symphony or concerto. The vent on the wall is for a very old gas heater that still worked. I rented this half of a duplex from the Morrison family, 1975-1987, and they were wonderful landlords. I like to think of the chair she's sitting in as my "Captain Kirk" Chair. had a lot of fun reading Stephen King novels in that chair. Sadly, it came apart, never to join Starfleet again. The black cylinder by the stereo is a preener, a cloth covered device for cleaning LP's. LP's attract dirt by their very nature. Never use record sprays or anything that might leave a residue on your LP's. There's a YEHUDI MENUIN MUSIC GUIDE on the floor by her feet. I reviewed this for the local paper, the DENTON RECORD-CHRONICLE.

My Shadow by Meg Price

"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." (Unknown)

I don't normally use quotes, but I was struggling to think of a suitable description for this photo and I suddenly remembered this quote, which is one I've always liked (and is also very true!) and it seemed to go with the photo somehow, so I thought I'd put it up :)

I took this outside the very old and beautiful Malvern Priory, Barney is lying outside the side doors, which were just wonderful, I had to try and take a photo of him next to them :) It was a very quick photo shoot, as I doubt dogs are really supposed to be off lead in the churchyard. Barney is well behaved but I understand not everyone appreciates large fluffy canines, especially where people come to sit and have a quiet moment... So I hurriedly took a couple of shots and we continued our walk home. Anyway, I rather liked this one :)

Reached Explore #13 (and Front Page!) Thanks :)
