The weather in Yosemite this weekend, at least while I was there, was pretty miserable. I spend a lot of time standing in the pouring rain, and all of the grand views that I had hoped to shoot were socked in fog and log clouds. Not wanting to go home empty handed thought, I through on the long lens and shot across the valley as the this scene caught my eye. I was taken by the idea of separation. Over the course of the next few thousand years, this cliff edge will be wedged apart by rain and snow and heat and freezing. The lone tree atop it will be separated from the other trees, and it may as well be the last tree to ever grow in that spot. For just a few seconds, maybe 40, the fog rolled in extremely thick and separated the tree from the dark rock in the background, allowing it this moment to stand out. Yosemite. Always something new. Always epic. Just have to be in the right spot at the right time. Glad I was. Cheers. -jared r.
Staff who worked on St. Helena Island often lived there and brought up families. They died there too and the island has several small cemeteries including the larger ones for prisoners who go numbered but unnamed.
When children died (and remember during the whole period of its role as a penal settlement, children were under the age of 21), they were buried on the island in a special cemetery for children. Sadly, their parents were laid to rest on the mainland.
Of course today, Eleanor (Nellie) who departed this earth in May 1899 would have been regarded as an adult.
Sadly too, quite a number of headstones and also stone crosses from the separate prisoner cemetery have been stolen over the years and used for different purposes, even to make coffee tables apparently.

And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
Khalil Gibran
I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard
(("I Will Remember You" by Sarah McLachlan))
I have depression and went through a divorce after a suicide attempt. This seemed fitting for me.
Yes, I still think about my failed attempt at dying. It's disheartening to know that, not only do you suck at life, you also obviously suck at death. I can't do anything right - including kill myself.
I also think about the things I would do differently the next time around. I won't share my ideas because I'm not an advocate of killing yourself. I'm just understanding as to why people do it or want to do it. I feel your (their?) pain.

Like thread through a needle
Everything I do is stitched with its color."

Brome is a small German town near what was the border of East Germany. Here you can still see visible scars of when the country was divided.
