at second date, He was rejected by her.

"You're too old-fashioned."

Once upon a time there lived a two-year old pure-bred dachshund, named Maggie, in a dog shelter home. One day a nine-year old girl (let’s call her A1) visited the shelter home, and Maggie jumped onto her lap. A1 fell in love with the dog instantly, adopted her and brought her home. Maggie soon started ruling over her new family like a queen :-) Initially A1’s three-year old cousin (let’s call her A2) was a bit scared of Maggie, but over a period of time she too grew very fond of Maggie. After four years when A1 moved to another city, she left Maggie behind with A2. Thanks to her growing bond with Maggie, A2 became obsessed with pets of all kinds, and befriended all the pets in the neighborhood. She and her friends started dreaming of building a chain of pet-care centers, when they grew up. Four more happy years passed by in a blink. Maggie grew old and less active, but remained as loyal and loving as ever. And then in the wee hours of an autumn morning she passed away leaving her family, especially A1 and A2, totally heartbroken :’-(

RIP Maggie. 2006.03.14 - 2016.10.10

The image above shows Maggie sunbathing in the front-yard not so long ago and a flower from the jasmine tree that stands next to the front-yard.

A poem on Maggie, by A2 –

You gave us a lot of joy,

and made us smile,

but now you are gone,

unfortunately it was your time.

How we wish you would wake up,

but we have still got memories,

you were the sweetest dog ever,

your grave is now our treasury.

Absolutely, folks — this picture’s got all the ingredients you love: layered history, coastal drama, and a touch of poetic romance. Let’s dive in.

🌉 Blennerville Bridge & Reflections in the Water Blennerville Bridge spans the River Lee at its estuary, just west of Tralee in County Kerry. It’s a seven-bay stone bridge that forms a causeway between the canal and river, offering a striking view of the Slieve Mish mountains and the iconic Blennerville Windmill.

- On calm days, the tidal waters mirror the bridge, windmill, and surrounding village in stunning detail — a dream for photographers.

- The reflections often include clouds drifting over the mountains, adding layers of texture and mood to the scene.

- At sunrise or sunset, the water glows with amber and violet hues, turning the bridge into a silhouette against the sky — perfect for capturing symmetry and atmosphere.

Photographic Tips

- Position yourself near the Tralee Canal or the south bank of the River Lee for the best angles.

- Use a polarizing filter to manage glare and deepen the contrast in reflections.

- Try shooting during low tide when the water is stillest, especially in autumn when the light is soft and golden.

💔 The Maid of Tralee — Mary O’Connor She’s the heart of the famous ballad The Rose of Tralee, which inspired the international festival. Mary was a maid in service to the wealthy Mulchinock family in Tralee. William Pembroke Mulchinock, a poet from the household, fell deeply in love with her — but their romance was thwarted by class divisions and political turmoil.

- William wrote the song as a tribute to Mary’s beauty and truthfulness:

“She was lovely and fair as the rose of the summer,

Yet 'twas not her beauty alone that won me...”

- After being falsely accused of murder, William fled to India. When he returned years later, he learned that Mary had died of tuberculosis.

- Heartbroken, he was buried beside her in Clogherbrien graveyard, just outside Tralee.

🌹 Legacy The story of Mary and William became a symbol of enduring love and Irish identity, and the festival now celebrates women of Irish descent from around the world — not for beauty alone, but for character, kindness, and cultural pride.

Lemmy, I miss you so much...

Ohh, can't anybody see

We've got a war to fight

Never found our way

Regardless of what they say

How can it feel, this wrong

Today is a very thoughtful and also sad day although it's the beginning of the Holiday season I usually love...

A month and one day away from being without you for one year... and it still hurts like hell. I am still not thinking about getting another doggie, I wouldn't do him/her justice, I still just miss my Lemmy too much! I feel so heartbroken... he was so very special and the most beautiful dog on earth to me! ❤

Of a wonderful, caring physician, Dr. Blaise Widmer. His heart was big as the world, he was a true care provider for his patients, a true friend to so many. I am honored to have worked with him, and I am going to miss him greatly; he taught me so much.

February 4, 1943-February 3, 2009

Thanks friends, I'm just heartbroken to be honest and trying to adjust to the idea that he is not going to walk through the doors tomorrow morning, or next week. This doesn't even begin to pay respect and tribute to the person he was.

Nothing serious, don`t call the doctor. :-))

Took me over to your house to meet your family

Introduce me to them, saying that you'd marry me

Then you'd look me in the eye and say, "It's just a joke"

Then you'd kiss me and I'd smile, did you even know?

When you'd say that kinda thing, I'd be excited

Got me hoping maybe one day you would mean it

Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else

Now you've only gone and made me make one of myself

I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies

I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me

'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate

And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate

Maybe I was holding onto what I thought you were

But when you think too hard, eventually it starts to hurt

The version of you in my head, now I know wasn't true

Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you

I was getting any flight so we could make it work

You'd ignore me, coulda told me you were seeing her

Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes

Took a minute but I learned that shit the hard way

Who are you to tell me I can't be heartbroken?

Babe, you had the chance, the door for you was open

If it's what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night

Pretend I haven't found a man who finally treats me right

I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies

I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me

'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate

And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate

Maybe I was holding onto what I thought you were

But when you think too hard, eventually it starts to hurt

The version of you in my head, now I know wasn't true

Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you

If there's anything I've learned, it's you should watch yourself

If it's hurting you, then leave and go and get some help

I just got some bad news today. My dear Maggie, the Bernese Mountain dog has cancer.

I am devastated and heartbroken. But I've had 5 wonderful years with this sweetheart. She made me smile every day.

I just wanted everyone to know that I might not be on here much for awhile.

your friendship and kindness means the world to me.

love you guys

RIP my sweet Maggie...I'll see you soon.

The ruined windmill on the hills was constructed in the 1820s. The mill is built on the highest part of Cleadon Hills on a slight artificial mound. The building incorporates a stone reefing stage, a feature that was unique to windmills in the area.

The mill was severely damaged in a storm at some time during the 1870s.

A local legend relates the story of Elizabeth Gibbon, a heartbroken woman who threw herself from the top of the mill tower and whose ghost apparently haunts the ruin of the mill to this day.

Just last night I received the sad news that our good friend Dani Plassitz (owner and designer of Styles by DANIELLE) passed away this December 13th. Dani wasn't just one of my sponsors, she was my good dear friend and I am heartbroken with her loss. My prayers are with her husband and her family.

I feel cold and it's snowing but there is no winter without a spring...

This was almost a year ago in February, about a month before Covid stopped all fun day trips (and everything else). Little could we see what the next year had in store, and certainly not what is going on today. I am heartbroken, mad, sad, embarrassed, infuriated and confused. (a not so happy) HWW

These pictures are reposts, we have had a very sad Autumn, both of our beautiful dogs have crossed over Rainbow Bridge. We are heartbroken despite excellent vet care there was no more that could be done. They were 13 and 14 and died within 2 weeks of each other. Life is very empty at present!

I thought you were mine and that was the biggest mistake of thought but I was so wrong, the actual mistake was listening to the thought of heart which was mindless!

Ray is furious because Pixie got to the Tree House before he did.

I want to share a really happy story. An ex colleague/friend of mine has three cats (all rescued). 16 weeks ago Ollie disappeared. Of course, my friend was heartbroken but was convinced he was out there somewhere. She thought he might have climbed into the back of a van or lorry. Yesterday she got a call from a vet 102 miles away to say that they had Ollie. If only he could talk, he could let her know what he has been doing for 16 weeks. It was my friend's birthday on Friday - what an amazing present for her.

My heart is sooooooo broken over the devastation to the Florida panhandle by Hurricane Michael. Almost complete destruction of Mexico Beach, FL. Watching video with a broken heart. Please pray with me for all those people. I'm thankful it didn't hit here, but so heartbroken for the Panhandle. May God bless us and keep us safe and strong.

I feel silly and awful for posting this stupid photo when so many are suffering right up the road.

Please see description of this event in the first comment photo description which I referenced.

I am dumbstruck and heartbroken. I just saw on fb that Elke Peterson www.flickr.com/photos/lou-elke/ passed on the third and I've been staring at her smiling face ever since. the pic was taken in one of the frozen bars and she looked so happy. She was a globe trotter and lived a life to be celebrated but I can't help but be selfishly sad that her spirit, encouragement, and passion has been taken away. I hope you all are well, I'm going to have my own personal group hug with all of you now. :(

After returning home one wet and windy day, I found Cleopatra sitting perfectly posed, under my Monet umbrella that I had left out to dry.

Gorgeous girl, almost 5 years since you left us. Heartbroken still.

Sometimes life throws you some wrench's, especially when you think you could never be happier then one of those wrench's is thrown into the middle and it all comes to a screeching halt. Did I make mistakes? Yes, of course, I am only human, but when the actions and words of others do not match, do not line up, sometimes that is all the clarity one needs to make hard decisions in their life. Am I heartbroken? 100% but sometimes we all must endure a little heartache to truly see who deserves to be in your life and who does not! Can only go up from here!

When I got the news today

I didn't know what to say

So I just hung up the phone

I took a walk to clear my head

This is where the walking lead

Can't believe you're really gone

Don't feel like going home

So I'm gonna sit right here

On the edge of this pier

Then watch the sunset disappear

And drink a beer

Funny how the good ones go

Too soon, but the good Lord knows

The reasons why, I guess

Sometimes the greater plan is kinda hard to understand

Right now it don't make sense

I can't make it all make sense

So I'm gonna sit right here

On the edge of this pier

Then watch the sunset disappear

And drink a beer

So long my friend, until we meet again

I'll remember you

And all the times that we used to

Sit right here on the edge of this pier

And watch the sunset disappear

And drink a beer

Drink a beer

Drink a beer, yeah

I am beyond heartbroken.

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.

I was a horse crazy child whose life revolved around horses. I was also a daydreamer introvert tomboy who outside of school spent every waking moment with horses and dogs, or lost in books. My grandfather enthusiastically encouraged my love of reading by taking me to book stores every week and buying me as many horse stories as my little horse loving heart desired. I was enthralled with the classic Jill series by Ruby Ferguson, and remember being heartbroken after finishing up the nine books. Those books even more importantly evoke cherished memories of my beloved Papa, who I adored.

In this shot I was trying to capture a vintage horsey storybook vibe, and channel Jill from those childhood favorite books, hence the groovy lil off kilter light mood! Happy memories. 🐴💕

I hope everyone has had a wonderful week … it is just zipping by! Almost wine time, a much loved grown up girl pursuit! Sending love … ❤️🍷💕

Hello loves,

So I decided to lose some hours of sleep yesterday and end up finishing this drawing today so I could say a proper goodbye to our dear Sulli. She will always remain in our memories and thoughts , her songs will forever live.. Idols are humans too..They have feelings too, they are not money machines to be used and left aside when not needed anymore.

If anyone wants the drawing without watermarking DM me :) <3 Hope everyone who feels heartbroken finds some peace in this little drawing I did.

RIP Sulli

As I sit here today remembering what would've been my buddy's (Dave Boyer) 56th birthday we take a look back to the nineties when we traveled all across the United States in search of steam & class 1 railroads.

This image is pure Santa Fe but was taken in the early BNSF era, Dave was heartbroken when the Santa Fe became another fallen flag.

As Dave would say this was Balls To The Wall Railroading!!!

the cat wasn't ready to be heartbroken.....

October 11, 2020. Chelsea lost her battle with cancer last night. I rescued her at 4 yrs old and am very grateful to have had 8 wonderful years with her. She has been my constant companion and sidekick on our many journeys from CA to CO to home here in MA. I am beyond devastated and heartbroken. She was such a loving caring dog . She will be dearly missed. :(((((((

One day Narcissus was walking in the woods when Echo the mountain nymph, saw him, fell deeply in love, and followed him. Narcissus sensed he was being followed and shouted, "Who's there?" Echo repeated, "Who's there?" She eventually revealed her identity and attempted to embrace him. He stepped away and told her to leave him alone. She was heartbroken and spent the rest of her life in lonely glens until nothing but an echo sound remained of her. Nemesis the goddess of revenge, decided to punish Narcissus. During the summer, he was thirsty after hunting, and the goddess lured him to a pool where he leaned upon the water and saw himself in the bloom of youth. Narcissus didn’t realize it was merely his own reflection and fell deeply in love with it, as if it was somebody else. Unable to leave the allure of his image, he eventually realized that his love could not be reciprocated and he lost his will to live, and perished.

Dear Miss Ali Cat

A thin veil separates your world from mine.

We had been friends on Flickr for several years before we met in person. When I thought of what you might be like, for some reason I thought of spices and of an exotic beauty. And I was right.

When I found out you were a vegetarian and shared my lefty views and love of animals, I knew I had found a kindred spirit and a friendship to treasure.

When I showed you this image of you and biscuit recently, you said it looked like a renaissance painting. That is what your photography was like. You painted the world so beautifully with your camera, a world of delicate colour and movement, adding spice to the sometimes mundane.

I had never heard of ICM photography till I met you. I try it every time I go out shooting but mostly fail. You were the master. Your multiple exposures are some of the most inspirational images I have seen and amongst my all time favourites.

I am sorry we never got to do the trip to the Island like we planned, and I am heartbroken I never got to say that last good-bye.

Heartbroken for your beautiful husband, sister and nephew and loyal dog Biscuit that have to go on without you.

Life throws us things we don’t understand.

I don’t understand.

You always signed off with a MWWAHHH.

So I am sending you a thank you, miss you, a goodbye and a MWWAHHH

that I hope crosses that thin veil into your world.

Love Miss B.xxx

Song: Mark Schultz - Remember Me

There are times when someone leaves this world to follow the stars and the clouds. We cry because we are hurting and what to have more time with them. We blame ourselves because the what ifs run threw our heads. but we also blame God because he let this happen. But why? dose he Hate us? Did we do something wrong to have this hurt cast down on us. or maybe my child was just to sick that she need to go Home to the Heavens.

I lost my Daughter Dec 3-4 2004

I love you my little girl. My sweet girl. my angel. go dance on the clouds, sing at the top of your lungs. I love you my darling girl.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !!

Today we have another awesome theme at Looking close on Friday : Cats in Black & White. I’m really sorry but I HAD to include Mr. Cat-Egg since he loves this group so much. He was heartbroken at first since he isn’t a cat… However, Mr. Egg had an old cat disguisement and was more than willing to put it on in order to be a part of this awesome theme. I double checked the rules and there is nothing against cat-eggs in this theme… So let’s juste hope that my picture will be accepted and that you will like it, of course !!!

Mucho, mucho amor for you !!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !

FYI: I’m very busy at work and at home so I will not be able to answer your comments… So comment at your own risks ! However, I will read everything for sure !

Out there in the distant and lush NW corner of Mount Rainier National Park Ranger Falls dances to the tune of angels cascading off of boulders and downed trees with a roar and a wet wind to an audience of none. One of the four remaining fire lookouts, perched upon Tolmie Peak, with one of the most magnificent views of the volcano sits abandoned, and access to the popular lake and campground which is a major resupply for the Wonderland Trail, Mowich, is cut off leaving me utterly heartbroken.

On April 14th the once beautiful 494 foot arched bridge that soars 250 feet above the Carbon River and the only public access point to 1/4 of MRNP was closed indefinitely and now....permanently as the 103 year old O'Farrell/Fairfax Bridge that is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places has become just that, historic.

I've been ranting for years about the way we've been hemorrhaging money on new schools and new fire stations as far as the eye can see while I drive like a drunken sailor, no offense Phil, to avoid the potholes and say silent prayers every time I cross a bridge. As Tobey Keith once said, the fits gonna hit the shan around here and it's about time.
