Moral philosophy has always been an exercise in make-believe, less realistic in its picture of human life than the average bourgeois novel. We must look elsewhere if we want anything that approaches the truth.
Here is a true story. A sixteen-year-old prisoner in a Nazi concentration camp was raped by a guard. Knowing that any prisoner who appeared without a cap on morning parade was immediately shot, the guard stole his victim’s cap. The victim once shot, the rape could not be uncovered. The prisoner knew that his only chance of life was to find a cap. So he stole the cap of another camp inmate, asleep in bed, and lived to tell the tale. The other prisoner was shot.
Roman Frister, the prisoner who stole the cap, describes the death of his fellow inmate as follows:
The officer and the kapo walked down the lines.… I counted the seconds as they counted the prisoners. I wanted it to be over. They were up to row four. The capless man didn’t beg for his life. We all knew the rules of the game, the killers and the killed alike. There was no need for words. The shot rang out without warning. There was a short, dry, echoless thud. One bullet to the brain. They always shot you in the back of the skull. There was a war on. Ammunition had to be used sparingly. I didn’t want to know who the man was. I was delighted to be alive.
What does morality say the young prisoner ought to have done? It says that human life has no price. Very well. Should he therefore have consented to lose his life? Or does the pricelessness of life mean that he was justified in doing anything to save his own? Morality is supposed to be universal and categorical. But the lesson of Roman Frister’s story is that it is a convenience, to be relied upon only in normal times.

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, and compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
Lao Tzu
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.
Dalai Lama
Our uniqueness, our individuality, and our life experience molds us into fascinating beings. I hope we can embrace that. I pray we may all challenge ourselves to delve into the deepest resources of our hearts to cultivate an atmosphere of understanding, acceptance, tolerance, and compassion. We are all in this life together.
Linda Thompson
Wisdom, compassion, and courage are the three universally recognized moral qualities of men.
Confucius
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another.

I am my own purveyor of morality and I have become my grandmother.
I need a little Paris, get out of this dirty old cow town for a while. There's nothing sophisticated about Denver except maybe a couple of photographers that thrive on deprivation and nuance. I might make it so far as Kansas City.....so long as I have a camera, I'm happy.
Abraham is the father of the multitude, a biblical character: the son of Terah, the father of Ishmael and Isaac. Ancestor of Jews, Arabs and other nations. The first of the three Jewish patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob); the first to be called a Jew in the Bible (Gen. 14:13). In Islam, it corresponds to Ibrahim, the son of Azar.
In the New Testament, Abraham, along with Moses, is the most frequently mentioned Old Testament righteous man. The genealogy of Jesus is traced back to Abraham, the progenitor of all Jews: “The genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham” (Matthew 1:1).
In the Christian tradition, the image of Patriarch Abraham serves as a prototype of the highest piety and righteousness in both the Old and New Testaments. According to John Chrysostom, Abraham was the guardian and teacher of the faith and morality of his people among the pagans around him.

Зображення святого патріарха Авраама на світловому барабані, як одного з духовних праотців Церкви.
Згідно з Біблією, і з погляду юдаїзму Авраам — родоначальник старожитніх євреїв, перший в Біблії названий євреєм (а нащадки його онука Якова вже звуться ізраільтянами). З точки зору мусульман — також родоначальник арабів (агарян або ізмаїлтян — нащадків його сина Ізмаїла від Агар). З точки зору християнства (зокрема православ'я та католицизму), так само як усіх вищеназваних віровчень — один з трьох родоначальників маючи на увазі всього людства в духовному розумінні, тобто вчителів і духовних наставників, поряд з його сином Ісааком і онуком Яковом.
It is no good asking me about the morality of anything when half the time I don't even know what time of day it is.
All I know is that we are all God's creatures and if we are motivated by kindness and love then we shall not go far wrong.
“Humility consists in being precisely the person you actually are before God...humility brings with it a deep refinement of spirit, a peacefulness, a tact, and a common sense without which there is no sane morality. How do you expect to arrive at the end of your own journey if you take the road to another man’s city? Heroic humility is to be yourself and to be nobody but the man, or the artist, that God intended you to be.”

La vera moralità consiste non già nel seguire il sentiero battuto, ma nel trovare la propria strada e seguirla coraggiosamente
( Mahatma Gandhi )
True morality consists not in following the beaten track, but in finding one's own way and in following it bravely
habit minus morality is comfortable and easy to do
no one likes the new
not me or you
and so when rulers want to change you
for their good
keep your habits
keep being you.

The mountain, supported stays above the surface of the water. lt is the residence of spirits ranging from deities in heaven to devils in hell. The beings living by the mountainside also include humans, nagas, garudas. ogres. ogresses and yogis Each of them is distinguished by wisdom morality
On the top of the lofty mountain the heaven called Tavatimsa where trai Trueng City is located The city is believed be the kingdom of gods where Sakka or Indra is the king Indra’s most important responsibility is to protect the serenity of the world community his divine kingship is a result of the merit he had made during his past lives.
Sakka lives in a castle called Phaichayon Maha Prasat (Phai chayon great grand palace). In the center of the castle stands the heavenly throne, namely Bandu Kamplhon, which will turn stiff when the world falls into disastrous catastrophe. Learnirng the situation, Indra will come down from heaven to help save his people on earth.

Forget sanity, forget salary,
Forget vanity, my morality,
If you get in between someone I love and me,

All these songs I’m hearing are so heartless,
Don’t trust a perfect person and don’t trust a song that’s flawless.
The Big Buddha is a large bronze sculpture of Buddha, completed in 1993, and located at Ngong Ping, near Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island, Hong Kong.
The sculpture's base is a model of the one in the United Kingdom. One of the five large Buddha images in China, it is enthroned on a lotus on top of a three-platform altar. Surrounding it are six smaller bronze images known as "The Offering of the Six Devas" that are posed offering flowers, incense, lamp, ointment, fruit, and music to the Buddha, representing the Six Perfections of generosity, morality, patience, zeal, meditation, and wisdom, necessary for Enlightenment in life.
The 34 m (112 ft) tall image weighs over 250 metric tons (280 short tons), and was constructed from 202 bronze pieces. In addition to the exterior components, there is a strong steel framework inside to support the heavy load. Visitors have to climb 268 steps to reach the Buddha. The Buddha's right hand is raised, representing the removal of affliction, while the left rests open on his lap in a gesture of generosity.

For Smile on Saturday- picture a poverb.
The proverb ‘crime doesn’t pay’ is the view that punishment rather than profit is the ultimate consequence of crime.
It is apparently a Victorian saying that was meant to encourage morality and work.
This Llama actually guards sheep in a field and came up to check that I wasn’t up to no good, which gave me the opportunity to take some close up head shots.
I have a home
When others are homeless.
Am I a good person?
I take a bath every day in winter when
Others don't have access to drinking water.
Am I a good person?
I sometimes buy clothes I don't need because they are on sale when others don't have warm clothing or clothes without holes.
Am I a good person?
The people who most need to do art for their mental health cannot afford to do art and I have expensive camera equipment.
Am I a good person?
I have enough to eat for sustenance and I indulge in extra treats like chocolate when others go hungry.
Am I a good person?
I don't believe in violence as an answer but the taxes I pay fund my government's oppression of people all over the world.
Am I a good person?
I travel to different countries for pleasure
While others travel out of necessity to stay alive.
Am I a good person?
I am definitely a person with good intentions. I am also a lonely person, a human amazed by vastness, a philosophical person
and often a devastated person but
Am I a good person?

Dignity is the right of a person to be valued and respected for their own sake, and to be treated ethically. It is of significance in morality, ethics, law and politics as an extension of the Enlightenment-era concepts of inherent, inalienable rights. The term may also be used to describe personal conduct, as in "behaving with dignity".

More and more believers are showing the church the red card and leaving. The way the abuse scandals are dealt with is certainly not the only reason for the wave of resignations. The position of women in the church and church dogmas such as celibacy and sexual morality certainly also play a role.

These beach huts are in Pwllheli, Wales, United Kingdom. A beach hut or bathing box, is usually brightly coloured and above the high tide mark on bathing beaches. Beach huts have been around since 1862, largely came about off the Victorian age of morality. Generally used for shelter and changing in, some people have tea and coffee making facilities and basic food storage, and preparation facilities within them. In the early 20th century they were regarded as holiday homes for the toiling (working) classes. Now, a beach hut can retail for £39,000 to £50,000 in the UK, €46,000 to €59,000 Euro or $51,000 to $66,000 US Dollar, not for the working classes anymore!
To Prologue of the Story "The Doors"
Free from the suffocating conformity of her past world, she marveled at the liberated realm she had discovered. The societal norms that had once bound her like chains now dissolved into mere wisps of vapor, revealing a vibrant and eccentric world where individuality flourished without judgment. Questions that had haunted her previously now seemed trivial, like echoes from a distant dream.
In this new reality, she reveled in the absence of societal expectations and the freedom to explore her own desires and beliefs. The constant bombardment of opinions and judgments from the masses, which had once plagued her thoughts, vanished into oblivion. Instead, she found solace in the profound connection she forged with her own inner voice.
The constructs that had once defined her every move — the endless rules, the bizarre limitations, and the arbitrary boundaries —seemed like relics of an oppressive regime now a distant memory. She marveled at how people had blindly accepted these artificial constraints, allowing them to dictate their thoughts and actions.
The weight of others' opinions, which had once weighed heavily upon her shoulders, now lifted as though they had been carried away by the ethereal winds. The suffocating pressure to conform to an ill-defined and ever-changing social norm was gone, replaced by a sense of liberation and self-discovery.
Amidst the mesmerizing symphony of strings and cascading melodies, her senses soared to unimaginable heights. As she immersed herself in the graceful movements of the stranger’s body, a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues and ethereal impressions exploded before her eyes. The boundaries between the known and unknown blurred, giving way to an unrestricted exploration of a world where questions and limitations ceased to exist.
Within this newfound realm, the music consumed her, dissolving the trivial distractions that once cluttered her mind. The beauty and perfection of This Enigma, in its celestial dance, became the focal point of her being, eclipsing all preconceived notions and social norms. The age-old debate of human decency, plastic surgery, and societal expectations melted away, leaving only an unbridled appreciation for the perfection of form.
With each passing chord, the enchantment grew stronger. Time seemed to stand still as she reveled in the harmony of movement and sound, oblivious to the outside world. Questions of identity, purpose, and morality faded into insignificance, replaced by an overwhelming sense of tranquility and fulfillment.
In this realm of boundless beauty and peace, she discovered a freedom that transcended all earthly constraints. The body became a canvas upon which the universe painted its masterpiece, a testament to the infinite creativity and wonder of existence. And in the embrace of this celestial symphony, she found solace and liberation, a sanctuary where the superficiality and trivialities of the mundane world held no sway.

Wuthering Heights is an 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, initially published under her pen name "Ellis Bell". It concerns two families of the landed gentry living on the West Yorkshire moors, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and their turbulent relationships with the Earnshaws' foster son, Heathcliff. The novel was influenced by Romanticism and Gothic fiction.
Wuthering Heights is now widely considered to be one of the greatest novels ever written in English, but contemporaneous reviews were polarised. It was controversial for its depictions of mental and physical cruelty, including domestic abuse, and for its challenges to Victorian morality, religion, and the class system.

“Your own politicians make our Dr. Goebbels look like a child playing with picture books in a kindergarten. They speak of morality while they douse screaming children and old women in burning napalm. Your draft-resisters are called cowards and ‘peaceniks.’ For refusing to follow orders they are either put in jails or scourged from the country. Those who demonstrate against this country's unfortunate Asian adventure are clubbed down in the streets. The GI soldiers who kill the innocent are decorated by Presidents, welcomed home from the bayoneting of children and the burning of hospitals with parades and bunting. They are given dinners, Keys to the City, free tickets to pro football games.”

“Thus our dignity consists in thought. It is on thought that we must depend for our recovery, not on space and time, which we could never fill. Let us then strive to think well; that is basic principle of morality.” – Blaise Pascal

Feel the fire where she walks
Lola Montez so beautiful
Shady and a tempered dame
Blinding your eyes with her spider dance
Her performance utterly erotic subversive to all ideas
And for public morality
And cool as she was, she didn't care
See the miner throw his gold
Lifting her skirt howling loud like a wolf
Hell raising and full of sin
When Lola was dancing and showing her skin
Wherever she walks
She will be captivating all the men
Don't look in her eyes
You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
But she'll catch you in her web
The love of your life, yeah
Feel the fire where she walks
Lola Montez so beautiful
Shady and a tempered dame
Blinding your eyes with her spider dance
Well notorious I have been
But never for fame that's what she said
Dear Henry taste my whip
Never to see any words you print
Wherever she walks
She will be captivating all the men
Don't look in her eyes
You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
But she'll catch you in her web
The love of your life, yeah
Oh Lola I'm sure that the love would have been
The key to all your pain, the key to all your pain
No words will later come
Did the spider bite your tongue
We will surely not forget
We will surely not forget
The Lola spider dance
Whoa
Don't look in her eyes
You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
But she'll catch you in her web
The love of your life, yeah

Our group challenge called "Five On The Fifth" (FOTF) was set by me this month. I chose the theme Fairy tale probably because I wanted an excuse to try a fantasy themed image pushing myself to use Photoshop. I tried many iterations which I ended up scraping but stuck it out with this one. The base image is from a foggy morning at my local lake and a waterfall from Kinglake. Red Ridinghood is the model Jess provided byAndrew and the wolf eyes by Fullmetal-fox on Deviant art.
The unicorn is my pet.
Fairy tales are often a mix of light and dark, reality and fantasy, magic and sorcery and dire tales of morality. I kind of tried to do a mix here bur really it was about having fun trying to creating a feeling of fairy tale. I hope it's not too amateurish but I almost turned my hair grey fiddling with it so I give it up to you now.

A few weeks ago I saw this splendid example of a male bovine created by Bellart! I own a lot of Bovine in SL honestly this boy is about the finest looking bull I have ever seen.
So a concept was conceived and the 1st Green Acres Rodeo was born!
My 1st preference was to of course to "Bull Ride", sadly my young Bovine friend is a little undersized to properly pull that off, so this is my Plan B, "Steer Wrestling"! I am super pleased even with the multiple crashes just as I was going in for my final frame!
I had a lot of help on this series, Igi Romuśka my Critter Poser Technical Expert. A special thanks to my Barrel Racing friend Tupper Moran for helping with the little details of Ro-Deo-Deoing that only she could do, plus she knows about Jerry Jeff! Thank you very much my friends!
For all the fans of the Rodeo, I will leave the build for a month or so for you all to enjoy!
There will be 2 more images in this series forth coming.

Yeah, I work all week just to make a draw,
Sometimes I don't ride 'em at all.
But I'm hooked in and I got to ride that train.
When I get down in that chute,
I can't keep from thinkin' about all that loot,
I'm a ro-do-o de-o de-o cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
That's why I drink a cheeseburger, eat a six-pack
Take a Darvon to kill the pain.
Pay thirty-two fifty just to take a fall,
I live through it to tell you 'bout it all.
I'm a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
Now, relax and take a deep breath or two
It's a one time shot and then you're through
Hang on, boy, and someday you'll have fame.
When they open up that gate
The bull takes off like a runaway freight
And you're a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
That's why I eat a cheeseburger, drink a six-pack
Take a Darvon to kill the pain
Pay thirty-two fifty just to take a fall
I live through it just to talk about it all
I'm a ro-de-o de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.
The cobwebs sure are thick, what's goin' on?
I feel like all my circuits are blown.
I can't remember my number or name.
Gimme a beer or two and I'll feel fine,
'Least it's worked every other time
'cause I'm a rodeo de-o de-o de cowboy
Bordering on the insane.

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And René Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed

An isolated barn on a deserted farm site stands with its lower door open giving an almost human expression of being aghast at all the changes around it. This past decade of my life has been a battle to accept generational changes without betraying a sense of being aghast. Technology advances and changes in methodology can be bewildering to older folks yet positive. Changes in morality and a breakdown in genteelness is more difficult to accept.
A Men, like trees are no stronger than their roots. Unlike trees though, Men can change their roots.
