You don't know what you did, did to me
Your body language, speaks to me
I can make it hurricane on it
Hunnid bands, make it rain on it
Tie it up, put a chain on it
Make you tattoo my name on it, oh
Make you cry like a baby, yeah

Language Of Love
I’m old fashioned and romantic
Like the films in black and white
all the lovers were enchanting
can you and I be old-fashioned tonight?
I wanna get lost in the music
and feel tipsy from the wine
speak of love, I won’t refuse it
I want a love like in another place and time
Dance with me
Oh, so close
and the music will speak the language of love
*Drumknott*
Just imagine me in white satin
like a 1930’s star
if we play the part, lovely things can happen
we can be old fashion being who we are
Dance with me
Oh, so close
and the music will speak the language of love
I wanna let the rhythm take us
I wanna know what it can make us feel
so let the moment hypnotize us
fantasy is a tiny step from real
FLORIOGRAPHY (language of flowers) x Smile on Saturday ;-)
Bellis symbolism:
innocence, purity, rebirth and new beginnings.
The genus name “Bellis” is the Latin word for “pretty” or “beautiful”.
The common name “Daisy” is a corruption of “Days Eye” and refers to the way that the flower closes at night and opens in the day, because at night the petals close over the yellow center and during the day they re-open.

The picture represents the feelings and point of view of the intelligence behind the camera. This disease of our age is boredom and a good photographer must combat it. The way to do this is by invention – by surprise. When I say a good picture has surprise value I mean that it stimulates my thinking and intrigues me. The best way to achieve surprise quality is by avoiding clichés. Imitation is the greatest danger of the young photographer.

Per Wiki...Minneopa State Park is a state park in Minnesota, United States. It was established in 1905 to preserve Minneopa Falls, the largest waterfall in southern Minnesota, and was expanded in the 1960s to include the lower reaches of Minneopa Creek and a large tract of prairie. Minneopa is Minnesota's third oldest state park, after Itasca and Interstate. Two park resources are listed on the National Register of Historic Places: the 1862 Seppman Mill and a district of seven Rustic Style structures built by the Works Progress Administration in the late 1930s. The park is located almost entirely on the south side of the Minnesota River, 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Mankato. In 2015 the state reintroduced American bison to the park in a 330-acre fenced enclosure, which visitors can drive through in their vehicles.
The creek cascades about 6 or 7 feet (2 m) over the upper falls and flows 66 feet (20 m) before dropping over the 39-foot (12 m) lower falls. The name is a shortening of Minneinneopa, which is translated from the Dakota language as "water falling twice." Other translations have been given as "water of two falls" and "water of the dancing elk." Although Minneopa Falls is often referred to as the highest waterfall in southern Minnesota, Minnemishinona Falls in a nearby Nicollet County park is slightly higher at 42 feet (13 m) but is not as scenic or well-known. Lower Minneopa Falls can be called the region's largest, as it is 25 feet (7.6 m) wide while Minnemishinona spans only 10 feet (3.0 m)

Another New Year's Resolution suggestion. "I promise to spend time being inspired by music and letting it move me into a better relationship with a friend."
Music can be a powerful thing. It can transform us. It is the universal language that we can all understand and that is what makes it so very special. You would be surprised how listening to music with someone can grow a bond.
For me, listening to music with loved ones is deep rooted. Putting on records for my grandma and sitting quietly together, holding hands and smiling at each other as we listened intently was some of my fondest memories of time spent with her.
Imagine what it can do for you. You're on a road trip with someone who you don't know how to talk to. You hear a song you both like and suddenly you both are singing the lyrics out loud. This act breaks the awkward silence and gives you both common ground. :) Think about the possibilities music can add to your life. They are infinite. Happy listening!
1. I promise to do one nice thing for a person each day.
2. I promise to reach out to someone I have not in a long time.
3. I promise to spend time being inspired by music and letting it move me into a better relationship with a friend.

Therefore I placed a spoon on the Kindle Reader on my iPad and captured this Welsh novella , not that there are many Welsh Language Books available on Amazon.
Karlovy Vary is famous for its wonderful city architecture and is a great tourist destination. After Prague and Cesky Krumlov the visitors would probably pick this city. On the promenade you would hear many languages, but the most you would hear Russian. Many Russians are actually residents of Karlovy Vary. They came as investors when Soviet Union fell apart, but the financing were not always of legitimate earnings. These tourist are probably from Korea not Russia.

Two in the sea - Dos en el mar
Mar Mediterraneo
La etimología de este mar procede del latín Mar Medi Terraneum, cuyo significado es "mar en el medio de las tierras". La mayoría de los habitantes de sus costas han usado una denominación derivada de la latina. En idioma griego se llama Mesogeios Thalassa con el mismo significado que el nombre latino, en árabe se llama Al-Bahr al-Mutawāsit y en turco Ak Deniz ("mar blanco", por oposición al mar Negro, pues los turcos llaman "blanco" al Sur y "negro" al Norte).Para los egipcios era "el Gran Verde".
Mediterranean Sea
The etymology of the Mediterranean Sea comes from the Latin Medi Terraneum, which means "sea in the midst of the land." Most of the inhabitants of its shores have used a name derived from Latin. Greek language is called Thalassa Mesogeios with the same meaning as the Latin name in Arabic is called al-Bahr al-Mutawāsit and Turkish Deniz Ak ( "White Sea", as opposed to the Black Sea, as the Turks call it "white" South and "black" to the North). To the Egyptians was the "Great Green."

Op de Zandmotor zag ik een paar mensen mooie dingen bij elkaar harken. Heel bijzonder.
Van het hele proces worden drone-beelden gemaakt die een beter beeld geven van hun creaties.
Ze werken onder naam " beach landart" zitten ook op FB. Hier kan je diverse filmpjes bekijken. Een aanrader.

There are infinite shadings of light and shadows and colors... it's an extraordinarily subtle language. Figuring out how to speak that language is a lifetime job.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.
Lao Tzu
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
Aesop
A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.
William Arthur Ward
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
Anon
Together we can change the world, just one random act of kindness at a time.
Ron Hall
With all of the bad things that are happening in the world right now, I think we need a message of togetherness and true unity. I believe that starts with personal reflection and then we can find kindness toward each other. Marielle Heller
I have long believed that there are fundamentally two forces or emotions that drive our decisions - love and fear. Love has its many manifestations: compassion, gratitude, kindness, and joy. Fear often manifests in cynicism, anger, jealousy, and anxiety. I worry that many of our communities are being driven by fear.
Vivek Murthy
Kindness is the sunshine in which virtue grows.
Robert Green Ingersoll
Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness. George Sand
Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
Marcel Proust
You don't teach morals and ethics and empathy and kindness in the schools. You teach that at home, and children learn by example.
Judy Sheindlin
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, and stay safe! ❤️❤️❤️

And the music will speak the language of love
Just imagine me in white satin

If we play the part, lovely things can happen
We can be old fashion being who we are
Dance with me
Oh, so close
Dance with me
Oh, so close (Dance with me)
I wanna let the rhythm take us
I wanna know what it can make us feel (Oh, so close)
So let the moment hypnotize us
A fantasy is a tiny step from real (Dance with me)
I wanna let the rhythm take us

So let the moment hypnotize us
A fantasy is a tiny step from
And the music will speak the language of love

Meet little Talifa.
A tricolor cat with piercing green eyes. If she could speak a language known to us, she would probably have a lot to tell. Not only humans suffer from war. Animals do as well.
When I lost my soul cat Feli unexpectedly after an operation, I felt mostly… lost. A couple of months after her death, I started looking at little creatures in need of a new home. Feli had taught me that love and caring for others mean the most. Still, I was not intending to adopt. The pain was too raw.
But then I saw a photo of little Talifa while browsing online for cats “nearby.” It turned out she was not nearby at all. She was over 2,000 km away from me, in a shelter in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Many animals evacuated from the frontline have found shelter there. In the photos and a video on the website, I saw a small, sad-looking, almost miserable little cat — and I realized that I could not stop thinking about her.
Eventually, I contacted a German animal protection organization that worked together with the shelter in Kharkiv. To make a long story short, I was allowed to adopt Talifa. Before being sent on her long journey, she had to undergo an operation in which all of her teeth had to be removed. After a recovery phase, she — along with other companions in need — traveled to Germany. They started on a Monday and arrived late on Wednesday evening.
I received a message in Ukrainian: “Hello, we will bring you a cat.” I will never forget how then shortly after this a huge truck stopped in front of my door. Along with some documents, I was handed little Talifa — a tiny, thin, and incredibly hungry cat. She had been shaved and looked even smaller than she actually was. She stepped out of the carrier and immediately began to purr — but once I showed her her food bowl, that clearly became the most important thing in the world.
Now her fur has grown back healthy and dense. She still has a great appetite, and I think I have earned her trust by now. In the beginning, every touch made her nervous. Today, always on her own terms, she lets me know when she wants to play — and sometimes her trust is great enough for her to snuggle up to me.
Talifa was rescued and sheltered by "Animal Rescue Kharkiv" (ARK). So many animals in need have been saved and sheltered by incredibly brave and caring people there. This organization should not go unseen. I try to donate regularly, and I will do my very best to take good care of little Talifa — who was saved by people who risked their own lives to do so. And I also know that some of them lost their lives while doing so.
I often wonder where Talifa lived, who her owners were, and what happened to them. And what she might have experienced without ever being able to understand or to tell it. We both lost someone and had to start anew. I can only hope she will be happy in her new home here. Living her new life. And I am trying to do so as well.
To quote "ARK": "May life overcome everything."
I built this drone space fighter almost a year ago, and have just realized that I'd never posted photos of it online. I built it to serve as an escort to my Contus Lancer Corvette. As such, I tried to work broadly in the same design language. In addition to using the red on white color scheme, I tried to work in various angled shapes, although the smaller scale meant different things were possible. For the name, once again, I went with a Latin word, this time a type of shield.
Alert, fear, anxiety, intimidation, defensiveness and in heightened state. This communication method is known as "piloerection." Same thing when dog's hair is pointing straight up to intimidate another one or ready to fight. This was the Black-crowned Night Heron's reaction to a mink running its way and then behind the branch (see other picture).
.
The ocean has never been silent. It simply speaks a language that cannot be heard, only remembered. She wanders through its emerald halls without disturbing a single current, listening to conversations carried by bubbles, seaweed, and forgotten tides. Every creature that passes seems to recognize her, as though she belonged not to the sea itself, but to the memory the sea keeps of the world.
Some truths were never meant to rise to the surface. They remain suspended beneath the waves, waiting for those who understand that wisdom is not always found in answers... sometimes it lives quietly in everything that chooses not to speak.

BACKDROP **SN~ Below the Sunken Ship
John Ray wrote the first proper bird book in the English language in 1678 (though he published the same work in Latin two years earlier). There were earlier books that referenced birds, often with a more general natural history theme, but Ray's was the first devoted to birds. In this first bird book Ray gave three names to this species; "The common Barn-Owl, or White-Owl, or Church-Owl". So one name referred to its unique owl colour, and two referred to its habitat preferences. Interestingly Ray gave the name "Ivy-Owl" as an alternative to our Tawny Owl, and I usually find them roosting in Ivy. The next major work on birds was Thomas Pennant in 1768, though it was a more general work on Zoology. Pennant coined the term warbler used for so many of our birds, and he often led the way for the selection of the accepted British name. But Pennant backed the wrong horse in this instance and chose White Owl. Later authors were reluctant to lose Barn Owl and often kept both names, such as William Yarrell in 1843. He listed both names but in his text showed a clear preference for Barn Owl, and the BOU officially adopted Barn Owl in 1883. So that is why a bird that nests freely in holes in trees, nest boxes on posts, and a variety of old buildings, has become linked to barns. Before I leave the names, the name Screech Owl was widely used and pre-dates Ray as it was first used in 1593. And Barn Owl does indeed screech. Have a listen on xeno-canto: www.xeno-canto.org/604167 , but the name Screech Owl has been adopted for different species of owl in America.
I photographed this hunting Barn Owl recently not far from my home while I was out for an afternoon walk. It was hunting over an abandoned grass field. You can see by the bramble over the wall that the field hasn't been used for some time.
