Troppo dolore per quelle persone... Troppo...
E sento in me una tristezza infinita... lacerante.

Sundown, last night.
Looking down, over the sea fog, and Ailsa Craig, and the Firth of Clyde. Distillery at the coast.

Prayer
Some days, although we cannot pray, a prayer
utters itself. So, a woman will lift
her head from the sieve of her hands and stare
at the minims sung by a tree, a sudden gift.
Some nights, although we are faithless, the truth
enters our hearts, that small familiar pain;
then a man will stand stock-still, hearing his youth
in the distant Latin chanting of a train.
Pray for us now. Grade 1 piano scales
console the lodger looking out across
a Midlands town. Then dusk, and someone calls
a child's name as though they named their loss.
Darkness outside. Inside, the radio's prayer -
Rockall. Malin. Dogger. Finisterre.
Carol Ann Duffy
Someone is praying in the direction of Mekkah under the walls of Essasouira. I did want to wait a big green wave to capture this image because my hope was to capture an "high contrast" moment, in every meaning. Do you want to try to list all the contrasts in the photo?

You who raise a prayer
from your shady and safe haven
beyond the blue texture of that sky
there is no god who can listen to you
I plunge my hands in the dust
in vain searching for other hands
but sharp stones and lifeless bodies
hurt my weak flesh
It is useless to cry or curse
the guardian angels have fled
it's just you and me now
abandoned in the midst of the universe

Like a Prayer
Madonna
Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Like a child you whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel a power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Your voice can take me there, just like a prayer

The Eyes Of The Witnesses - Prayers For Ukraine by Daniel Arrhakis (2022)
A people left to their fate with only the hope in the arms of a new generation that only wanted to live in freedom... the whole world could do much more... it is the world's conscience in the face of barbarism that is at stake!

This image I am posting is a macro taken in Costa Rica of a praying mantis. As a child they always fascinated me and I was thrilled to have had the opportunity of seeing the beautiful species of praying mantis that makes his home in Costa Rica.
Wishing you a great and blessed evening !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please say a prayer for our Little Bungee this day as we have decided to go ahead with another operation in an attempt to help him have a chance at a normal life.
As of this juncture, he is dizzy, can't walk straight and refuses food and water.
His surgery will attempt to remove a growth causing this unfortunate physical symptom interfering with his life.
He is still very young so perhaps he will be able to overcome this infirmary.
Thank you all in advance for your prayer and thoughts.

This is a knot with special religious significance at the end of some very old Islamic prayer beads. I will attempt to find out it’s background. You can see that it has suffered a lot of wear over the years.
