Have you ever dwelled upon what that actually means
Are we only talking about a dogs love
towards us humans
I hope not
I am not
I think unconditional love must go both ways
And of course not only in a dog human relationship.
Human to human relationship as well
When you meet that kind of person with whom you can feel the bond with
The bond you didn't think you would ever feel in this lifetime
What a blessed feeling
You can be the one you truly are
No pretending
With the flaws you have
With the scars from the lived life
Plain and simple
And be loved without questioning
And love back without questioning
We do mess it all up don't we, trying to adapt towards others, please others, instead of being true to ourselves.
We must evolve within, yes of course. We must take difficult choices, and we need to take them to get further in our growth.
To grow is to respect and love yourself.
If you don't respect and love yourself, who would than respect and love you truly and unconditionally
This is of course my belief, my thoughts. You may disagree all you want, I couldn't care.
I stand in my belief, it lays in my spine and for me this is the way.
I'm truly feeling blessed.
This image I'm posting is an image of that belief I have.
It may look like a dream, but dreams can come through, you never know.
Enjoy if you want, I'm happy to share.
Amen
I submit this image to Flickr Friday, "There is no place like home" - Unconditional love is a state of mind and in my eyes this should feel like a natural home, the place we all want to be 🙏
As well as my forest is my second home 💙
Hope you all will do something nice that you like to do and not because you have to do it🙏
We need joy.
We need love.
And we need to start with ourselves.
That's at least my opinion 💝

A special shout-out to all my Flickr friends and visitors, for taking the time to view and acknowledge my photography.

Cali & Hef side by side walking on the beach.
She is never far away.
Always walking in his footsteps 👣 🐾
Llandanwg Beach sits between the towns of Barmouth and Harlech on the southern side of Tremadog Bay. It is also part of the wider Snowdonia National Park and situated close to the pretty Afon Dwyryd estuary.
The sand dunes to the back of the beach conceal the tiny church of Saint Tanwg which dates from the 13th century. A small path winds through the dunes and leads you to the beach from the central car park area or you can take a trail from Cardigan Bay. As you sit on the pristine sands you will also be able to enjoy vistas of the rugged Rhinog Mountains in the distance.
The beach here shelves gently into the sea making this a good place to swim, although there is no lifeguard so care should be taken. When the tide is low, it reveals a causeway out to pretty Mochras which is also known by its local nickname of Shell Island due to the plethora of different hued shells found on the its beach.
Due to its strategic position, Llandanwg Beach is shielded from the well known Welsh winds which can be a little fresh at times meaning that you can enjoy this area even in the off-season. The beach is also well-loved by locals including fisherman who come here for the plentiful supplies of bass, mackerel, flatfish, and dogfish. With that in mind keen anglers will find plenty to do here, or you can explore dainty rock pools or simply go for a stroll on the soft, pristine sand.
Amenities at Traeth Llandanwg include disabled access and the village is also home to the quaint Y Maes Cafe close to the beach which operates from June to October.
"Never grumpy when out hiking", is a Norwegian saying.
I often think about this because I feel that I am so lucky having a gorgeous scenery to hike in and ofc Aiko ❤💝❤ He is the one reason why we are out hiking, and I have realized that it has become a necessity for me too to move my butt out of the house.
So yes, never grumpy 😊

Being a family means you are a part of something very wonderful. It means you will love and be loved for the rest of your life.

The love of family and the admiration of friends are much more important than wealth and privilege.

Will You Ever?
Kaitlyn M. Yawn
I don't think you will
Ever fully understand
How you've touched my life
And made me who I am.
I don't think you could ever know
Just how truly special you are,
That even on the darkest nights
You are my brightest star.
You've allowed me to experience
Something very hard to find,
Unconditional love that exists
In my body, soul, and mind.
I don't think you could ever feel
All the love I have to give,
And I'm sure you'll never realize
You've been my will to live.
You are an amazing person,
And without you I don't know where I'd be.
Having you in my life
Completes and fulfills every part of me.

*Working Towards a Better World
The Ultimate lesson
all of us have to learn is
unconditional love,
which includes not only others,
but ourselves as well. -
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word. -
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Love is an unconditional commitment to an imperfect person. To love somebody isn’t just a strong feeling. It is a decision, a judgement and a promise. - Anon
You know you’re in love when you don’t want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. - Dr. Seuss
Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear. - John Lennon
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️

Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do
In this world of troubles
My music pulls me through
“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”
― Plato
“Music touches us emotionally, where words alone can't.”

Whatever mess you find yourself within
Regardless how you got there
When the edifice has slipped away and died
And left you standing there defenseless
Love can heal
Love can heal
Love can heal
Love can heal
There's something moving out of you, your body and your skin
Like mist comes from the water
You can sense it, when the cold has clenched its claws
And, alone, you face what's coming
For a moment, I raise my head
I can breathe the air
Out in the sunlight, in all the colours
Set against a bed of green
A bed of green
Love can heal
Love can heal
Love can heal
Love can heal
Love can heal
(Give into love) Love can heal
Give into love
Give into love
Have a lovely Week ahead my dear friends . Forgive me for not being very active at the moment, RL has taken up most of my time and energy.

Feeling too uninspired living in this unfriendly broken city. Barely touch my camera anymore. In any case, I’m so thankful to have a family to love.

Cali with us on the Estuary walk in Talsarnau.
There is a dusting of snow on this chilly Winter's afternoon.
The water pools at the estuary were frozen and the puddles too on the
rugged track.
The sheep graze here, weather and tide permitting but are moved to higher ground in inclement weather conditions by the farmers, for safety and to be warmer.
Cali- one beautiful natured lady.
We lost her sister- Mili 💔 and will be remembering her on Monday, as it will be 2 years without her, with treasured and much loved photographs to add to photostream.
Cali has struggled without
Mili, but remains full of unconditional love for everyone and everything in her life
One beautiful friend ❤️

PS: For The National Dog Day 26 August
♥ No one can win hearts like man’s best friend and in honour of this bond between man and canine, Dog Day is celebrated.
Take time to appreciate the love and value that dogs bring to our daily lives, and to do your bit for homeless and abused dogs the world over. From keeping us safe working for the emergency services to supporting people who are blind, deaf or disabled, dogs do a lot for us humans, and this is an opportunity to give something back ... ♥ ♥ ♥
