Yes I am getting all spiritual again, great innit?! I was in Potsdam and headed to a small forest I knew about, the Sun was at a particular point in the Sky which at first I didn't notice, when I took the shot of what I thought was going to be a basic and/or mundane pathway shot through a small forest, I reviewed it and noticed this fantastic Sun-glare, when I took just one step backward and took another shot, the Sun-glare was gone, when I took two steps forward and took the shot, it was gone again, so when returning to the exact spot and again taking a further shot, the Sun Glare was there, it was a chance in a million to get it at such a finely tuned, acute angle of the Sun through this tiny gap in the trees, which had I'd been one foot further I would've missed it completely.
The fact the glare line cuts right through the path, it had an Angelical feel about it, as in, this is the way dear boy.
I hope everyone is holding up well, and so as always, thank you! :)
The Lock is on the left of the photo, there were a few people in the way.
Info from Wikipedia.
Marsh Lock is a lock and weir situated on the River Thames in England, about 1 mile upstream of Henley Bridge in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. The lock is close to the Berkshire bank, but accessed from the Oxfordshire side via two long walkways, the downstream one being near Mill Meadows. The first pound lock was built by the Thames Navigation Commission in 1773.
The weir consists of a series of iron watergates running from the lock to the Oxfordshire bank near the mills. It is situated between the two walkways.

Assateague Lighthouse, 142-foot-tall (43 m), is on the southern end of Assateague Island in Virginia portion.
Located within the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge owned by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and operated by the U.S. Coast Guard and is still used as an active aid in navigation.
The original lighthouse was constructed in 1833 at a cost of ~ $55,000. In 1860, construction on a taller, more powerfully illuminated brick lighthouse began, but was delayed by the Civil War. After the war, work resumed and the lighthouse was completed in 1867.

We need a navigation Mark or two in life
Well Ok, I only need one Mark tho
hehe
We need goals in life
We need to grow
Getting out of our comfort zones
Getting new experiences
Harvest from the experiences
Living the life outside the safe walls
Be in flow
Following our intuition
Sometimes things happen so fast, but you should have faith as long as you know it feels right
It will be right eventually
And we need a buoy in life, an anchor
We need someone that we can feel safe with
Like a cliff
Solid
No matter what happens
Standing by your side
Supporting
Comforting
Loving
Goals in life are supposed to be reached by your own
But having a loved one standing by
Close to you
Makes everything easier
Because you are in balance
Communicating
Discussing different angles
Ready to take every struggle you meet
I have had no trouble dealing with stuff on my own
But it is an ocean of difference having a loved one to discuss issues with, than dealing alone
Not to mention that you say things out loud
Your opinion
And then you give light to your words
And you may see them in different light when they are spoken
Yes yes, I am in love
In love with this tremendously nice guy
In love with life itself
