Remember Martin?
We bumped into each other again. In case your wondering, his doing fine, well much more than fine. A later picture will explain, I won't give too much any just yet.
For those who don't know, this is Mr. Martin www.flickr.com/photos/143280886@N08/31251564930/in/datepo...

19 years ago today, the Twin Towers in New York City were brought down by terrorists who flew planes into the towers. Those of us who stopped their lives and their hearts that morning will never forget the sheer horror and disbelief we felt collectively as a nation..
I hope that remembering this dreadful moment in time will help to bring us all back together again in these troubling times we find ourselves in now.
Bless us all, Lord, bless us all.
We will remember them,
The ones who stood tall,
Who fought for their country,
The ones who were willing to fall.
We will remember them,
The ones whose lives had shined,
Who were mighty and bold,
May the world be defined.
Look at all our nations,
Oh how far we've come,
As every person will stay in our hearts,
We shall stand one by one.

For ever if I'm far away
I hold you in my heart
I sing a secret song to you
Each night we are apart
Remember me.

I had a wonderful visit to UT Arlington's re-creation of The Alamo @ maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/UTArlington%20III/161/112/23. I was truly impressed with how accurately modeled the entire sim was, and loved being able to enjoy it there virtually, particularly because I'm a Texan myself and have seen the Alamo and surrounding area many times. I hope you'll pay them a visit. You'll learn a lot about all that happened here, and I hope appreciate how well it was re-created in Second Life.

Decades ago when I was a teenager, I went to a Remembrance Day ceremony honouring veterans and the dead from the World Wars. As people were bowing their heads at the playing of the last post this man was moved to tears.

Remember when going for a Sunday drive was a thing? 😊
"Remember" Interpretation shot for Toy Sunday group.
Going for a Sunday drive I think began in the 1920's and 1930's. It was a fun thing to do on a Sunday afternoon...just to go for a leisure drive in no rush and with no destination. Ahh, the good old days.
Happy Sunday!

Remember the days when tomorrow was none
We lived in the moment, we lived with the sun
Spending our hours on castles of sand
Letting the waves bring us to land
Remember the evenings late by the sea
Orange horizons covered the trees
Let's wait to the moment when no one's around
These beautiful days we once came from
Remember the time when we flew to the calm
Surrounded by mountains, ideas from the ground
Spending our hours where no one could see
Growing our thoughts beneath a tree
Remember the lake side, time moving slow
Turquoise water reflected by snow
Minutes to hours, no movement to come
These beautiful days we once came from
Remember the days when tomorrow was none
We lived in the moment, we lived with the sun
Spending our hours on castles of sand
Letting the waves bring us to land
Remember how you overcame some obstacle in your life? Today I wanted to give up because everything that I tried wasn't working. The breeze kept knocking my props over, I was working with snails that didn't want to participate. I wanted to quit and was tearing up because of the frustration of it all but I stopped and observed a spider struggling to climb it's line. The breeze would move the line and the spider just kept moving and with grit and determination it finally got where it was headed. I decided to do the same and although I didn't get exactly what I wanted I endured the battle and have something to show for it.
Prayers for all those families affected by the Terrorist Attack 20 years ago on 9 1 1. God Bless America.
I usually keep to season and generally post winter pics on winter and summer pics on summer. but all the pics i've taken lately are so dark, so bad, i only had a few that i could share, all the rest i posted on January are from the winter 2010 or earlier. this one is an archive picture from last summer. it is hard to believe it can be so green outside and light can be so warm and yellow when all i can see now is snow snow snow and light is blue grey...
i have some more pics from this serie on my blog if you'll get a chance to visit.
remembering the Poppies.
Tue, 11 Nov 2025
Poppy Day is on November 11th because this is Armistice Day, the anniversary of the end of World War I. An armistice was signed on that day in 1918, which stopped the fighting at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. The day is a tribute to all those who have died in service since then, with the poppy becoming a symbol of remembrance due to the flowers that grew on the battlefields of WW1.
Remembering what they stood for.

Now that the days are getting shorter and the nights are getting colder, I would like to use my Monday flower greeting to return to the beginning of the year.
Let us remember when the first flowers appeared in the brown of last year's autumn leaves, when the birds singing greeted us again in the morning and we finally felt the warming sun on our skin.
At this point, this little beauty here, the forget-me-not, was also in full bloom.
And so I wish you many beautiful memories for this week (and not just for this week) and the constant certainty that such moments will keep coming. Especially in times when it seems a little darker and colder.
Jetzt, wo die Zeit beginnt, da die Tage immer kürzer und die Nächte immer kälter werden, möchte ich meinen montäglichen Blumengruß dazu verwenden, nochmals an den Anfang des Jahres zurück zu kehren.
Erinnern wir uns als die ersten Blüten im Braun der Herbstblätter vom letzten Jahr aufgetaucht sind, als uns morgens der Gesang der Vögel wieder begrüßt hat und wir endlich die wärmende Sonne auf unserer Haut gesprürt haben.
Zu diesem Zeitpunkt hat auch diese kleine Schönheit hier, das Vergißmeinnicht, in voller Blüte gestanden.
Und so wünsche ich Euch für diese Woche (und nicht nur für die) viele schöne Erinnungen und die immer währende Gewissheit, dass solche Momente immer wieder kommen werden. Vor allem in Zeiten, in denen es gerade etwas dunkler und kälter wirkt.

9 years ago today my mother passed away. Her favourite flowers were bluebells and lily of the valley both of which grow in our garden. Her ashes are scattered in a bluebell wood near to where she lived. I found this old photo of her (comments below) during one of my many clear outs recently. I guess she would be around 16/17 years old. The photo would have been taken in her home town of Galway and I seem to remember she said she was stopped by a local photographer who asked to take her photo for the newspaper.
