I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line....
a line up of some of the 30 individually numbered motorcycles - here the red Triumph 750cc motorbike - belonging to the Royal Signals White Helmets on show at the Dunster Country Fair Somerset
The White Helmets started life in 1927 in Yorkshire displaying their skills in the saddle on both horseback and motor-cycles, before switching exclusively to motor-bikes in 1936. They were formally re-named as the White Helmets in 1963 and since then, have gone on to break many world records and wow spectators at venues around the world

Not terribly pleased with this... just one of those days when perhaps i should have left the camera at home.
Human tongue cannot express the lightness, the clarity, the simplicity, the wonderful harmony which completely dispels all sense of heaviness…. A sea of light pours from above and dominates all this space, enclosed and yet free …. It creates a sense of inner transparency; the weightiness and limitations of the small and suffering self disappear; the self is gone, the soul is healed of it, losing itself in these arches and merging into them. It becomes the world: I am in the world and the world is in me…. This is indeed Sophia, the real unity of the world in the Logos, the coinherence of all with all, the world of divine ideas. It is Plato baptized by the Hellenic genius of Byzantium…. How true was our ancestors’ feeling in this temple, how right they were in saying that they did not know whether they were in heaven or on earth! Indeed, they were neither in heaven nor on earth, they were in St. Sophia—between the two: this is the metaxu of Plato’s philosophical intuition. St. Sophia is the last silent testimony to the future ages of the Greek genius: a revelation in stone.
-From an autobiographical essay called “Hagia Sophia,” cited in Andrew Louth, “Wisdom and the Russians: The Sophiology of Fr. Sergei Bulgakov,” in Where Shall Wisdom Be Found? Wisdom in the Bible, the Church, and the Contemporary World, ed. Stephen C. Barton (Edinburgh: T and T Clark, 1999), 169-81, at 178.
“ A man’s past is not simply a dead history….
It is still a quivering part of himself, bringing shudders and bitter flavours and the tinglings of a merited shame."

This walkway is in the Miramichi River on Middle Island in Miramichi, New Brunswick. European settlers landed here during the Great Potato Famine. There was much sickness on the ships and this Island became a quarantine stop for passengers .
