Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

Honestidad es una palabra solitaria

Todo el mundo es tan poco sincero

Honestidad se escucha raramente

y es principalmente lo que necesito de ti

Billy Joel Honesty

Sweet Honesty (Lunaria annua) that was growing in my back yard.

Silberblatt

(Lunaria annua)

She photographs what she likes, simply and directly. All photographers start off with this honesty but most unfortunately lose it as soon as they attempt to become a “better” photographer. Their integrity is swamped by gimmickry and the control of technique. Too often photographers aim for visual effect. Pure boredom. They should forget about being conscious of composition and attempt to be more conscious of feeling. Good photographs come from a photographer having a genuine feeling towards a subject and a desire to record it. If you photograph something that really interests you in a direct and simple way it is a fair bet that your pictures will be more significant.

Lyrics by Billy Joel

If you search for tenderness

It isn't hard to find

You can have the love you need to live

But if you look for truthfulness

You might just as well be blind

It always seems to be so hard to give

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone

To say they sympathize

If I wear my heart out on my sleeve

But I don't want some pretty face

To tell me pretty lies

All I want is someone to believe

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

I can find a lover

I can find a friend

I can have security until the bitter end

Anyone can comfort me

With promises again

I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me

Don't be too concerned

I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone

But when I want sincerity

Tell me where else can I turn

'Cause you're the one I depend upon

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

My Jam

When you have that one person in your life that you count on just to get through the day ... then you find out it was all a lie

Sigh ...

Never fear, things with Mihailsk are just wonderful. I'm just taking out some mental trash. The person I'm referring to knows EXACTLY who they are. My hope is that I never need this reminder to myself again.

If you search for tenderness

It isn't hard to find

You can have the love you need to live

But if you look for truthfulness

You might just as well be blind

It always seems to be so hard to give

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone

To say they sympathize

If I wear my heart out on my sleeve

But I don't want some pretty face

To tell me pretty lies

All I want is someone to believe

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

I can find a lover

I can find a friend

I can have security until the bitter end

Anyone can comfort me

With promises again

I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me

Don't be too concerned

I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone

But when I want sincerity

Tell me where else can I turn

'Cause you're the one I depend upon

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

Maybe I'll tell this story someday ... but you probably wouldn't believe me if I did. It's completely unreal.

Sadly, my jam for life

human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not

(Ernest Hemingway)

We're leaving all the windows open

We don't even mind the rain

Or where we let the floors get wet

So what if the hardwood stains?

'Cause we're collecting evidence

Of one remarkable storm

How wild it was to find it, finally feel the climate

Instead of only staying dry and warm

Rain on us, Saint Honesty

Salvation is coming in the morning, but now what we need

Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint Honesty

So we won't sleep tonight

While we brace against the wind

Oh, these hearts, they're weather-makers

We'll go where they take us

Until we find ourselves shelter again

We won't settle for the silence

We won't drown in the tears

We'll say every single word even if we think they'll hurt

Let the rain wash away these tears

Rain on us, Saint Honesty

Salvation is coming in the morning, and now what we need

Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint Honesty

Oh, we won't let go, we'll be soaked to the bone

Baptized by truth, we will reap what we sow

Build our own higher ground when the rain's coming down

This is worth it to me, Saint Honesty

Rain

Salvation is coming in the morning

Wait patiently, aiming straight for it

But now what we need

Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint Honesty

Happy Monday everyone, hope it's a more inspiring one than mine has been :-)

Thanks as always to Paul for his beautiful tintype texture and scratches.

This grows as a wild flower in my garden. It's seed pods when dried are much used by flower arrangers. An example of it's flat round seed pods may be seen just to the right of the flower above. They become silvery white, translucent and papery with time.

Lunaria Annua.

This biennial plant comes in white or purple, and, apart from it's sweet-smelling flowers, is popular with flower arrangers for it's coin-shaped silvery translucent seed pods. Honesty is it's common name in the UK. Here it is , in flower at the moment, in my garden.

There are beautiful places, opportunities, moments, and gifts all around us. Some come at a price. Some require sacrifice. This is a very small example of a sacrifice in order to witness something beautiful, but I will share it with you. I started driving at 4:00 a.m. after two nights of very little sleep for almost a 2 hour drive to get to my location. The winds were blowing and blowing hard. I climbed up the steep sand dune while getting a literal sand blast in my face. The winds were picking up so much sand off of the dune at times it was hard to see because of how much sand was blown into my eyes. The sand would sting on my skin as the winds blew. The reward was definitely something very beautiful, but it came with a sacrifice of very little sleep and very harsh conditions both on me and my equipment. As I said earlier, this is a very small sacrifice for something beautiful. There was a much greater sacrifice that was made and the reward was even more beautiful than this. Christ Jesus died on a cross for the sins of the world that those who would believe in Him would have eternal life through Him. His death was not celebrated as a heroic act in the moment, instead He was mocked, beaten within and inch of His life, insulted, whipped, shamed, and crucified using one of the most painful torcher mechanisms known at the time by the Roman Empire. His reward was us. In all honesty I don't see how He got the better part, but because of His great love for us He desired to destroy the barrier that separated us from Him. Jesus had to take on the full wrath of God so that we wouldn't have to. He took the punishment that we deserved for our sin and He bore it on the cross. Oh what a Savior we have in Christ Jesus! "For our sake He made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God." (2 Corinthians 5:21) He took our place so that we would be clothed in His righteousness. It was the great exchange, it is the best gift we could ever receive and the most beautiful sacrifice that has ever been made!

I love Honesty seed pods for their transparency and delicacy. The common name "honesty" arose in the 16th century, and may also relate to the translucence of the seedpods. In South East Asia, it is called the "money plant" and in the United States it is commonly known as "silver dollars", "Chinese money", or "Chinese coins" because its seedpods have the appearance of silvery coins. For the same reason, in French it is known as monnaie du pape ("the Pope's money"). In Denmark it is known as judaspenge and in Dutch-speaking countries as judaspenning (coins of Judas), an allusion to the story of Judas Iscariot and the thirty pieces of silver he was paid for betraying Christ.
