May all your dreams and wishes become true!

 

I just came home from the musical “Beauty and the Beast” (Russian version). www.beauty-beast.ru/ It was super. I recommend everyone to see it.

But it too late now, about 11h30PM (Moscow time). If I can’t visit all of you today, so please forgive me, I will do it tomorrow.

 

As always thank you very much all my dear friends for your visits, comments and favs!

Please NO multigroup invites!

 

the ultimate comfort zone!

Nigella, also known as 'devil-in-a-bush' or 'love in a mist'.

Nigella damascena has been grown in English cottage gardens since Elizabethan times.

For many years 'Miss Jekyll' was the only widely available variety, and it is still popular for its dependable masses of sky-blue flowers.

“When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else.

Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower.

I want them to see it whether they want to or not.”

Georgia O'Keeffe quote (American Painter, 1887-1986)

A true blue or purple is not so common in the flower world and not easy to photograph well...

 

With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Built for the Lehigh Valley by ALCO in 1965, Delaware-Lackawanna C420 405 was notching up as it tugged on interchange traffic received by Norfolk Southern.

 

Sitting on the side, NS ES44AC 8098 was waiting for the PT-97 to clear before returning to Allentown.

I went to Nathan Phillips Square to sing with hundreds of people with Daveed and Nobu as they lead everyone in singing True Colours as a tribute to the Orlando attack. Incredibly moving and love filled.

It never looks like you think it will.

In Shakespeare's The Tempest (1611), Ariel - the benevolent, spying sprite who's been delivered from the evil witch Sycorax by Prospero, whom he's served throughout the play - is about to be set free. Happily he sings:

 

'Where the bee sucks, there suck I:

In a cowslip’s bell I lie;

There I couch when owls do cry.

On the bat’s back I do fly

After summer merrily.

Merrily, merrily shall I live now

Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.'

 

You might just imagine Ariel resting in the flower cup at the top in the photo. True, merry heaven for him.

Another name for Cowslip - especially east of the Meuse River where I am now - is Hemelsleutel/hemmelschlötsche, 'Key of Heaven'. The story goes that St Peter, drowsy after his long duty at Heaven's Gate, lets slip his golden key to Earth. There sprouted up our Golden Flower, called in Dutch 'Gulden Sleutelbloem', Gilt Key Flower. Those names are, I think, rather more imaginative than the Latin: 'First in Spring'.

Tale as old as time

True as it can be

Barely even friends

Then somebody bends

Unexpectedly

Just a little change

Small to say the least

Both a little scared

Neither one prepared

Beauty and the beast

Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before and ever just as sure as the sun will rise

Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before

Ever just as sure

As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time

Tune as old as song

Bittersweet and strange

Finding you can change

Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun

Certain as the sun

Rising in the east

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the beast

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the beast

...a whole lot of things. This was one little wildflower in the shade at a local garden. It was maybe an inch across and 4 inches above the ground. Any help with ID would be terrific! I just couldn't get over how darned blue it was. I'm not sure I've sees another flower this absolutely true blue shade.

 

No post processing other than size/crop.

True peace does not demand a denial of our emotions and concerns. What is the difference between godly concern and sinful anxiety? Actually the same Greek word is used for both, and it is only the context that reveals the difference. The difference can be seen in these mathematical formulas: Concern + unbelief = anxiety; Concern + faith = a biblical virtue - Bill Thrasher

Hiking near the sunset hour which truely becomes the golden hour as these towering cliffs reflect their glory in the blue waters of the Crooked River. A great place to visit in eastern Oregon near Bend.

Small Group Weekly Challenge - Action

halloween in second life

I feel so extraordinary

Something’s got a hold on me

I get this feeling I’m in motion

A sudden sense of liberty

I don’t care ’cause I’m not there

And I don’t care if I’m here tomorrow

Again and again I’ve taken too much

Of the things that cost you too much

I used to think that the day would never come

I’d see delight in the shade of the morning sun

My morning sun is the drug that brings me near

To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear

I used to think that the day would never come

That my life would depend on the morning sun...
