On the rural edge of Empress, Alberta, stands this faded, very crooked, still standing building. It's all about the perspective, taken with an old Kodak V550
Circumstances can feel overwhelming at times. Days can truly be hard. Suffering is a reality for many of us. Grief comes in waves and some of those waves knock us down. Some days or even months, we feel beat up and knocked down. It can feel hard to get back up. What if I fall again? It may feel impossible to keep going. I know many who have felt this way and myself included. Living with a chronic disease, this can far too often become my mental state if I lose perspective of what is true. Take heart, for there is light at the end of the tunnel. There is still hope. For victory is ours even though many days we feel as if we are losing. We stand in the victory of the conquering Lion! One day, our mourning will be turned into dancing and our sorrow to joy!

Here we have two coins of different value and size the smaller one is in front of the larger one but hopefully looks bigger than it. I have included a small pic of them side by side so that you can see the difference. Cropped and played with the colours in the original.

Taken for a monthly challenge for my photography club- Theme- Architechture.
I really like this building, the lines remind me of a ship of sorts. Had a few hours of fine weather in the last week or so and I was able to get a few shots around the city.
For years I was smitten with the notion of perspective. I measured up just about everyone with "what it's like to be in their shoes". I always found that it aided my attempts at compassion and understanding.
I can feel a desire to go off and root out a copy of Desiderata coming on!
"Perspective vs. Reality:" The tall pines in the foreground appear to falsely miniaturize the mountain peak in the distance, which actually happens to be the second tallest peak in our state.
Looking up from an underground hide at these African Elephants (Loxodonta africana) was a powerful reminder of scale
