I thought I'd try somewhere new to walk this weekend. Melbourne is under some pretty strict Covid lockdown regulations at the moment, so finding new places to take photographs within 5km from home is a real struggle. I inadvertently strayed into the Tirhatuan Wetlands. To be honest, I'm not even sure if it was open to the public. It was a lot of walking in ankle deep water, through some pretty uninspiring landscape. This gum tree was about the only thing worth photographing in an hour of walking.

The oldest soap in the world, Aleppo soap was originally developed in the city of Aleppo 3,500 years ago. With the civil war its production was stopped.

 

Meanwhile a part is made in Lebanon, which also suffered the civil war.

Now Lebanon is a model of living together. Let’s hope the same for Syria.

Happy Easter everyone. I thought this might be an uplifting song for Easter morning in the light of the challenges our world faces right now - continuing COVID, the war in Ukraine threatening to get even worse and difficult economic times. There is a small explanation of what the song is about at the end of the lyrics. The shot was taken at Bribie Island in SE Queensland. The link will take you to the youtube video. This song was used as the closing theme in the very funny movie "Bridesmaids" which also had some great messages.

Hold On Lyrics (With thanks to Genius)

 

I know this pain (I know this pain)

Why do you lock yourself up in these chains?

No one can change your life except for you

Don't ever let anyone step all over you

Just open your heart and your mind

Is it really fair to feel this way inside?

  

Someday, somebody's gonna make you wanna

Turn around and say goodbye

Until then, baby, are you gonna let them

Hold you down and make you cry?

Don't you know?

Don't you know things can change?

Things'll go your way

If you hold on for one more day

Can you hold on for one more day?

Things'll go your way

Hold on for one more day

  

You could sustain

Or are you comfortable with the pain?

You've got no one to blame for your unhappiness

You got yourself into your own mess

Lettin' your worries pass you by

Don't you think it's worth your time

To change your mind?

Ooh, no

  

Someday, somebody's gonna make you wanna

Turn around and say goodbye

Until then, baby, are you gonna let them

Hold you down and make you cry?

Don't you know?

Don't you know things can change?

Things'll go your way

If you hold on for one more day

Can you hold on for one more day?

Things'll go your way

Hold on for one more day

  

I know that there is pain

But you hold on for one more day and

Break free from the chains

Yeah, I know that there is pain

But you hold on for one more day and you

Break free, break from the chains

  

Someday, somebody's gonna make you wanna

Turn around and say goodbye

Until then, baby, are you gonna let them

Hold you down and make you cry?

Don't you know?

Don't you know things can change?

Things'll go your way

If you hold on for one more day, yeah

If you hold on

Don't you know things can change?

Things'll go your way

If you hold on for one more day

If you hold on

Can you hold on?

Hold on, baby

Won't you tell me now?

Hold on for one more day 'cause

It's gonna go your way

Don't you know things can change?

Things'll go your way

If you hold on for one more day, yeah

Can't you change it this time?

 

Thanks to Genius for the Lyrics.

The song emphasizes the importance of persevering in spite of obstacles and not let the situation consume you. Everything will be alright in the end.

With the setting sun.

Te Hokinga Mai,

tēna koutou

Tangi ana te ngākau

i te aroha

Tū tonu ra te mana

te ihi o nga tupuna

kua wehea atu rā

Mauria mai te mauri tangata

hei oranga mo te mōrehu

tangi mōkai nei

E rapu ana i te ara tika

mo tātou katoa.

 

The Return,

greetings

The heart cries

in love

The power still stands

the ihi of the ancestors

it is separated

Bring the human spirit

for the survival of the survivors

this pet cries

Looking for the right path

for all of us.

My thoughts run away from me when I think about this small stretch of land that provides this view.... So many things have happened here.

The angle I needed and the height the tripod had to reach didn’t work together. As I leaned over the wall, pushing my weight against my perilously-angled tripod, I was very aware of the very long drop down to the ground. Crazy thoughts went through my head.

 

Michael considers me a risk-taker and I think he was quite nervous of me ending up in this stupid position. I think this shot is worth it.

 

So, we’d arrived and taken the photographs without anyone seeing us. The whole time I was shooting we were listening out for the slightest noise, shrinking away from the edge to not be seen. We trotted back to the lift and relaxed as we were transported back to freedom.

 

Phew.

 

Except for when the lift doors opened, we stepped out and were immediately looking straight at the security guard sitting at their station. Without even looking at each other, we strode forwards, right past the guard and through the main door. Thank goodness we didn’t need to do anything to get back out.

 

We strode out and away, back into the darkness of the night.

 

 

I know, I know. Hong Kong, again! I’m not wealthy- I just keep spending all my money on going there. I don’t think they say ‘Fourth Times the Charm’ but this trip was just that - a success. For almost the entire time I kept my mental health issues at bay. It was a good trip. After three disasters - It is really nice to say that.
