Mount Kailash itself is known in the Tibetan language as Gang Ti-se and informally as Gang Rinpoche ("Precious Snow Mountain"), to the Bon as Yungdrung Gutsek ("Nine stacked Svastikas"). Though only 6714 m high, it stands quite alone like a great white sentinel guarding the main routes into Tibet from India and Nepal in the south and west.
Traditionally a pilgrim undertakes the 52-km trekking cirquit or circumambulation (khorlam) around Mount Kailash commencing at Darchen (4575 m) and crossing the 5630 m Dolma La pass on the second day of the three-day walk. This is followed by a trek of the same duration around the beautiful turquiose Lake Manasarovar known in the Tibetan language as Mapham Yutso མ་ཕམ་གཡུ་མཚོ།

or labour of love as some might call it. From seed to plant, to harvest to Viva la Salsa! For me food is an expression of love and caring. Some experts believe there's a sixth omnipotent love language — food. “Food incorporates all the other five languages and all five senses. It's a very powerful way of creating a connection and expressing love,” relationship and human behavior expert Patrick Wanis, Ph. D.Jan 29, 2020.

Quitar tu recuerdo de mis labios , de aquellos en los cuales lograste sacar las sonrisas y los te quieros mas sinceros que alguien te podria haber dicho ; esos besos que por un momento lograban llevarme a un lugar en el cual crei que nadie me haria daño ; por ahora solo que queda mentir & por sobre todo fingir que ya todo me da iwal ...

"Love is a language spoken by everyone, but understood only by a heart." ~ Shirley Rindani
Passu is a small village on the Karakoram Highway, beside the Hunza River, some 15 kilometers from Gulmit, the Tehsil headquarters of Gojal in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, and about 150 km upriver from Gilgit. It lies very near the tongue of the Passu Glacier, and just south of the tongue of the Batura Glacier. The latter is the fifth longest non-polar glacier in the world at 56 km and reaches very near to the highway. The people are Wakhi and speak the Wakhi Language. Religiously they are Ismaili, a sect of Shia Islam.
Tupopdan, 6,106 metres (20,033 ft), also known as "Passu Cones" or "Passu Cathedral", lies to the north of the village; it is the most photographed peak of the region.Also nearby are the high peaks of Pasu Sar, Shispare Sar, and Batura.
I was going to translate it, but I'll leave the fun up to you ;)
I went to a memorial service today which was a real bummer. I've never been to a funeral for someone younger than myself and it was such a strange feeling, our lives are so delicate and can be taken so quickly. It can be difficult working in the supportive field because you care so deeply for so many people, it's hard to let it all go when the time comes.
I use 'sign' every day at my current job and it's become so much a part of my daily communication that I sometimes don't even realize that I'm doing it. Last night while at the grocery store, I had called down the aisle to Scott and when he didn't understand what I was saying, I signed it out....which only made things more complicated...sometimes I even sign to complete strangers, most often it's "thank you". It's amazing how quickly new skills can become habit.

From yesterday evening at the cabin. This storm cell blew in during sunset. These prairie storms can be impressive, but this one left us with only a few drops of rain. We cleaned up the yard, and closed up the windows. Then I hung out on the dock to watch and take photos.
Storms and skies like this make me realize just how small we actually are.
Also part of my figurative language set. Both of them go with the same idiom in my mind. A term we use when feeling a little ill. I'll retitle the pictures in a couple of days with the idiom, but feel free to guess in the mean time.

Lightshow on barque Passat, Travemünde Week 2019
"Passat is a German four-masted steel barque and one of the Flying P-Liners, the famous sailing ships of the German shipping company F. Laeisz. She is one of the last surviving windjammers. (The name "Passat" is German for trade wind.)
Passat was launched in 1911 at the Blohm & Voss shipyard, Hamburg. She began her maiden voyage on Christmas Eve 1911 toward Cape Horn and the nitrate ports of Chile. She was used for decades to ship general cargo outbound and nitrate home. [...]
In 1957, a few weeks after the tragic loss of Pamir in mid-Atlantic and shortly after having been severely hit by a storm, Passat was decommissioned. She had almost experienced the same fate as the Pamir when her loose barley cargo shifted.
Passat was purchased in 1959 by the Baltic Sea municipality of Lübeck and is now a youth hostel, venue, museum ship, and landmark moored at Travemünde, a borough of Lübeck in the German federal state of Schleswig-Holstein. [...]"

Today was a busy photography day, in the best way of course! It was so busy that this was the only time I actually had to sit and put something together for my own 365, all the other work is top secret (for now!).
The last few weeks have been both amazing and difficult at the same time, I've been fortunate enough to have been featured on some fairly popular blogs which has given me a whole new set of opportunities and offers and I'm excited about these new doors opening up, at the same time however, I've been feeling my own personal creativity and inspiration severely lacking which is making things a tad unbalanced in my own head. I'm hoping it's just one of those fleeting bouts of non-inspiration.....
*Working Towards a Better World
This is a diptych I did with newspaper and acrylics on canvas. The idea for the work was to encourage the love of curiosity and learning. I believe that art can create an interest and make people ask questions, think and be encouraged to research which can then broaden out into action. We artists should promote education worldwide.
