HUGS and stay well.
FOOD FOR THOUGHTS:
global citizenship or world citizenship typically defines a person who places their identity with a "global community" above their identity as a citizen of a particular nation or place. The idea is that one’s identity transcends geography or political borders and that the planetary human community is interdependent and whole; humankind is essentially one. The term has been used in education and political philosophy and has enjoyed popular use in social movements such as the "World Citizen" movement and the Mondialisation movement.

Le viaduc de Millau est un pont à haubans franchissant la vallée du Tarn, dans le département de l'Aveyron, en France. Portant l’autoroute A75, il est la jonction entre le Causse Rouge et le Causse du Larzac en franchissant une brèche de 2 460 mètres de longueur et de 343 mètres de profondeur au point le plus haut, dans un panorama de grande qualité et avec des vents susceptibles de souffler à plus de 200 km/h.

"... I know, I know, I know
We're only human
I know, I know, I know
How we're designed
Oh I know, I know, I know
We're only human
But we're capable of kindness
So they call us humankind"
The Robin's red breast and habit of living close to humankind makes it one of our most familiar birds.
Robins are widely distributed in Britain & Ireland throughout the year, from Shetland to the Channel Islands, apart from on the highest mountain tops. Robin breeding numbers increased through the last part of the 20th century and have been fairly stable since, albeit with some fluctuations.
The Robin is both a resident and also a migrant visitor to Britain during the winter months, when birds from northern and eastern Europe help to swell numbers. During particularly cold weather this pugnacious little bird can be seen sharing bird tables with several other Robins, all of them trying to defend the food source they have found.

Many years ago I thought nothing of purchasing anything made of plastic. Looking at this image of plastic straws, I am reminded that it is up to each and every one of us to make significant changes to our lives if we care about our Earth and those who will live long after we have left this planet.
In my mind, this image has gone from one of captured beauty to one as a reminder that I need to be aware of my part in protecting Mother Earth.
All human beings are also dream beings. Dream ties all humankind together.

I'll show you
That all our fates are so entwined
Don't lose your faith in humankind
Just don't forget my state of mind
Is fragile
Together
We can enjoy the taste of dignity
As long as you believe in me
I'll show you my reality
I've seen a few
Come visit the Cradle of Humankind! Starting in a camp reflecting the 1920s you soon cross a wide river with the wildlife veterinary station and a savanna lying behind. Or you visit a small native village near the dark jungle or the white sandy beaches.
Unfortunately this beautiful dragonfly got hit by a car. We found it near the street on the bike lane. It did agree to a memorial photo. It was a beautiful creature and I'm sad everytime I find a victim of humankind.
The war is going on.
The tension covers the world and the air is tense. Every country is strengthening its armaments to protect its own country.
Over the last few years, Covid has divided the world and isolated people. And yet, is it a bright future for humankind to confront each other and create more gap between them?
Everyone knows that it is not the weapons that make our future. No one wants to be hurt by weapons and doesn't want to live a repressed life. But the world certainly seems to be dominated by fear.
Peace!
No WAR!

Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!
The three musketeers head out into the neighborhood looking for adventure...
Let's keep working together to create a wonder-full world founded on kindness and compassion!
It's amazing what we can do when we cooperate.
So let's head into our communities and lift others up up up.
And and and Skippy created his universe with the help of Little Branch's amazing Flowering Dogwood and Poplar Trees, Apple Fall's Hardwick Manor, and Thor's Sidewalk.
Keep shining so bright, my friends!

This beautiful Snow Leopard lives in the Rio Grande Bio-Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, with at least two others of its kind and serves as a warning to humankind that the plight of these incredible cats is in the balance. There are less than 10,000 left in the wild and they continue decreasing in population due to habitat loss and poaching. Maybe we humans can shift our awareness. I like to think there is always that hope. Thanks for viewing.

A masterpiece of architecture, the Sydney Opera House is one of the world’s most famous buildings. It is located on the edge of Sydney Harbour and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The building was evaluated as “one of the indisputable masterpieces of human creativity, not only in the 20th century but in the history of humankind."
Pavilion Zero takes the visitor on a journey to explore how much humankind has produced, the transformation of natural landscape, and the culture and rituals of food consumption. Seems room.
It is the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed.

Umana... perchè il genere umano percepisce il pericolo solo quando tocca ciò che è vicino alla propria sfera personale?
Perchè non riesce a capire che, per il bene della salute di TUTTI, deve rimanere a casa?
Human ... why does humankind perceive danger only when it touches what is close to its own personal sphere?
Why can't he understand that, for the sake of ALL health, he must stay at home?
By Marc Quinn (Yorkshire Sculpture Park)
Quinn’s work explores the relationship between art, nature and science, the human body and the perception of beauty.
Wilder Shores of Desire, an enlarged orchid created using 3D scanning technology, illustrates Quinn’s interest in humankind’s increasingly one-sided relationship to nature, in which human desire attempts to manipulate nature to its own ends.
"Jambo! A Voyage To Africa" takes you to the Cradle of Humankind. Starting in a camp reflecting the 1920s you soon have to decide whether to cross a wide river with the wildlife veterinary station and a savanna lying behind or to pay a small native village a visit, close to an almost impenetrable jungle. Perfect for explorers and photographers. Safari feeling guaranteed!

This shot was taken in the San Juan mountains two days ago. There should be MUCH MORE snow there. Hurry snow we need you.

Discussing The Peace of Nature and the Nature of Peace with my feathered friends Åse and Håvard over a cup tea ...
Moral Philosophy of Global Peace as a Supreme Ideal
Today, humankind is suffering from multidimensional crises such as terrorism,population-explosion,denial of human rights, economic inequality,racial discrimination,ideological extremism, religious intolerance,social injustice,ecological imbalance, consumerism, oppression of weak ... All are Peace-related issues and a matter of Ethics."Have you realised your role and your duties regarding Global Peace ?" They asked me ... Pause
Åse and Håvard have ... Us ? Pause ... Where are our United efforts ?
I felt embarrassed ... They had so much to teach me ... over a cup of tea and while awaiting the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize ... They also knew the Preamble to the Constitution of UNESCO ...
"Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed ... "
♥ Always thankful for your kind visits my Flickr friend ♥
CU soon in the Oslo City Hall with the monumental large scale murals and in the Vigeland Sculpture Park where art speaks "For the Peace and Brotherhood of men".
This is a reminder that whatever humankind creates, there are things much greater, created by a more powerful being.

“When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.”
― Fred Rogers
He looks so fluffy to be a mad squirrel that's hellbent on enslaving the human race to grow and harvest peanuts. This little fellow had very little fear of me. After I took this picture, I walked 2 feet alongside and it didn't move a muscle fiber.
There were so many different kinds of birds on the beach today. It made me think of this song by South African artist, Johnny Clegg - Scatterlings of Africa. Please listen to this very brief and interesting explanation of the start of humankind with the song (in English and Zulu) at the end.

A familiar landmark in our locality and always a wonderful place to enjoy the end of any day. But, in these troubled and uncertain times, it is especially profound to witness the simple beauty around us. High Peak is an ancient landmark, part of the Jurassic Coast and site of humankind since at least the iron age, it has witnessed countless sunsets for millennia and it prevails against the harshest elements. A beautiful place to contemplate on our precarious existence and to take comfort from the natural world we inhabit.
Pretty self explanatory capture of mine of a guy who jumped in front of my tripod while standing on a cliff at Dyrholaey in South Iceland. Neither did he take in the amazing sight of a storm unfolding over the North Atlantic or the sea stacks all around us nor did he notice that he ruined my image. Fortunately it took him only 20 secs to get about 5 selfies and then he was gone and peace was restored :p I guess I have given up hope that mankind might stop indulging in these stupid trends made possible by greedy technology developers who care a f*** about people and their development and are rather fine with taking money for things that make us worse ...
ANY THOUGHTS?
