This poignant image, captured in Burma in 1997, features a young child carrying heavy buckets with a weary yet determined expression against a rustic backdrop. The photograph highlights the raw strength and unyielding spirit of youth amidst hardship, embodying a "wild at heart" essence through its authentic documentary style.

I love this tenacious birch, which endures and grows horizontally, defying the laws of nature

I ain't dead (nah)

I ain't done (nah)

I ain't scared (of what!)

I ain't run (from who!)

But still I stand (yeah)

No matterr what people here I am... (yeah)

No matter what remember

I ain't break (never)

I ain't fold (never)

They hate me more (so!)

Yeah I know... (ha ha)

Here I go (yeah)

" Resilience "

The capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness:

Back in the day, March 21st was considered to be the first day of Spring

Woke up to a nasty surprise ce matin

And like Arber Xhekaj, my favourite Montreal Canadians dedenceman, can be very tough !!

A small larch tree sapling hunkers down for winter in the harsh high-alpine environment above Aasgard Pass in the Washington Cascades. Larches are conifers but they are also deciduous - their needles turn from green to gold in the fall and drop for the winter.
