Going to work. - clearing the road as I crawled, very slowly, down the icy track. I was nearly three hours late!
This is why I bought a quad bike!!
Today - 25 January, 2020 - it’s mild, wet and windy.
On my track,
South Carrick Hills
SW Scotland
Love the tenacity of these little daisies.
Many thanks for all the lovely comments and favs on my allium shot. I really appreciate all the support and encouragement.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
(Hebrews 11:6)
Ash tree on limestone, facing Whernside, Yorkshire Dales.
Natural woodland is scarce in the UK uplands, from centuries of preference for pasturing sheep in particular. Lately, the remnant native ash trees of the Dales are direly threatened by disease ...
Why might this matter? Because woodland is a natural climax that creates & maintains soil fertility along with ecological diversity. And it could be argued that as humans, for our mental & planetary health we need trees.
But we are all mortal, as is the planet we ride on and the universe in which it sings.
Who knows where we're headed?
Grip the gunwales ...

Ces petits bâtiments de pêche sont des témoins. Des témoins de la vie des pêcheurs des régions rurales éloignées. Des témoins des changements économiques qui ont rendus la pêche côtière traditionnelle obsolète…Des témoins des dangers de cette mer qui a pris la vie de centaines de pêcheurs parmi les générations qui s’y sont succédées. Des témoins de la ténacité et de la créativité de ces hommes et de ces femmes accrochés tant bien que mal aux rivages qui leur avaient donné tant d’espoir. (Patrice)

These little fishing huts are witnesses. Witnesses of the lives of the fishermen from remote rural areas. Witnesses of economic changes that made the traditional coastal fishing obsolete. . . Witnesses of the danger of the sea that took the life of hundreds of fishermen along the generations that succeeded. Witnesses for the tenacity and creativity of these men and women clinging somehow to the shores that had given them so much hope. (Patrice)

I don't know the name of this wild vine,but there are lots of them that grow around the trees and cling to the fences here at home.
The yellow in this scene is a field of wild buttercup and the vertical lines are intersecting fence posts. HFF!
Fascinated me as to how these tiny yellow flowers are springing out of what is pretty poor soil. Despite a challenging environment they have prevailed.

Most of this juniper tree appears dead, with the bottom of the trunk exposed to the elements, but one root still clings to life on the edge of the Grand Canyon.
TENACITY and PERSISTENCE in achieving goals
Always go ahead, set new goals each time and fulfill them. You can fall nine times, but you have to get up ten and get stronger and step higher. The key to success is clear planning and tactics. Ability to think, count and see two steps ahead of their opponents. Use new ideas and scientific advances for your own purposes. Reasonable audacity, the ability to take risks and courage in actions are the qualities of a real Emperor.
Alexander, in his desire to follow the heroic paradigm, naturally placed great value on honor, and with it to the virtues of self-control and self-denial. He always went forward, having a great goal and fulfilling it without fear, inspiring many people, changing history and the map of the earth.

УПОРСТВО И НАСТОЙЧИВОСТЬ в достижении целей
Всегда идите вперед, ставьте каждый раз новые цели и выполняйте их. Вы можете девять раз упасть, но обязаны встать десять и стать сильнее и шагнуть выше. Залог успеха - четкое планировани и тактика. Умение мыслить, считать и видеть на два шага вперед своих противников. Использовать новые идеи и достижения науки для своих целей. Разумная дерзость, умение рисковать и смелость в действиях - качества настоящего Императора.
Александр, в своем желании следовать героической парадигме, естественно, придавал большое значение чести, а вместе с ней и достоинствам самоконтроля и самоотречения. Он всегда шел вперед, имея великую цель и осуществлял ее без страха, вдохновляя многих людей, меняя историю и карту земли.

We have a large population of Finnish-Americans across the Upper Peninsula and their native tongue has a word for this concept-SISU...which is needed to endure the long and harsh winters here.
