“We are fragile creatures, and it is from this weakness, not despite it, that we discover the possibility of true joy.”

Quote ― Desmond Tutu

We had some 'wet' snow falling this morning, but it melted away immediately …...

Softness is not a weakness,

it takes courage to remain delicate in a world so cruel !!

I have a weakness for backlit leaves, and when they're as beautiful as this one I have to go with it.

I think this one is a sycamore.

"Softness is not weakness.

It takes courage to stay delicate

in a world this cruel."

I'm always moving. and when i am still i feel restless.

View On Black

I'm beginning to realize some things. like...

its okay to do nothing for just a moment.

and most of the time i feel guilty for not being productive because my body has been trained to constantly be occupied. but in those moments when i am still, if i set aside my restlessness, sometimes i can really....just breathe.

my heart is really weak. but so much stronger than i think it is.

spending time with the creator of the universe is something i struggle with.

even though when i do, its the most beautiful, lavishing moments of my life. and i'm not just talking about reading the bible, but actually just, marveling over him and what he has created, and worshiping him through song, or art, or photographs.

aren't taste buds the most amazing thing? i mean, why do we even need them but to enjoy and experience the Earth's nourishment.

”Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution.”

― Khalil Gibran ―

“With all of the bad things that are happening in the world right now, I think we need a message of togetherness and true unity. I believe that starts with personal reflection and then we can find kindness toward each other.”

― Marielle Heller ―

“Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.”

― Roy T. Bennett ―

“Don't mistake my kindness for weakness. I am kind to everyone, but when someone is unkind to me, weak is not what you are going to remember about me.”

''Our greatest weakness

lies in giving up...

The most certain way to succeed

is always to try another time''

There is a sacredness in tears

They are not the mark of weakness but of power

They speak more eloquently than 10,000 tongues.

They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.

Taken at Penambol Conservation Park near Mt Gambier.

The Sinkhole or Cenote is formed over many years of water erosion in the limestone bedrock.

Rain water which is slightly acidic seeps into the ground and dissolve the limestone along lines of weakness.

As the limestone continue to dissolve, the horizontal and vertical weakness developed into a cave.

Over time the size of the cave becomes bigger as the weakend limestones collapsed under their own weight.

Eventually the cave enlarged to a point that its roof could not be supported.

The collapsed of this surface material created the geological

feature called a Cenote or Sinkhole.

My weakness is Chocolate Biscuits, my wife always knows when I have been eating them....... Because of all those pesky Crumbs!

Friends understand you on a deeper level. They know your quirks, strengths, and weaknesses. They accept you for who you are.

Lexi and Autumn have celebrated my achievements ,provided a shoulder to lean on during tough times and offer emotional support and guidance.

Most recently we've found ways to listen to each while also dancing at the same time which has helped in ways, that I know they understand.

I cherish the time throughout the years that we have spent together. I love you girls!

I don't think that kindness is a weakness,

I don't have a problem with compassion,

Tell me what you're thinking?

Would you like to be so high?

Could you give consideration to something that you did not realize?

Would you close your ears to the things you did not believe?

Tell me would you be strong? Would you be the one to carry on?

Half don't come here, half don't come here,

Half don't come here, so I do.

It's gonna be alright.

“Share your weaknesses. Share your hard moments. Share your real side. It'll either scare away every fake person in your life or it will inspire them to finally let go of that mirage called "perfection," which will open the doors to the most important relationships you'll ever be a part of.”

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

But they know me better than that

They know me better than that

They know my weaknesses

I never tried to hide them

They know my weaknesses

I never denied them

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

How can a view become so twisted

How can a view become so twisted

They know my weaknesses

I never tried to hide them

They know my weaknesses

You tried them

I get so carried away

You brought me down to earth

I thought we had something precious

Now I know what it's worth

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

I heard it from my friends

About the things you said

I've never felt so disappointed

Never felt so disappointed

They know my weaknesses

I never tried to hide them

They know my weaknesses

Thought that you liked them

They know me better than that

I wanted to thank you all for your response to my last post. We tried freezing

the harddrive and that did not work as it will not boot up! We are now looking

into data recovery and see what we can come up with. Hopefully we can find

something and get the photos back.. Fingers crossed!!

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!!

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜

Lately life has been a bit tumultous. Covid hit, my life no longer was mine in RL. As time goes on, it isn't getting better so with it comes a sadness or grief for what has been lost.

Wanna and Ivo have stood by me through thick and thin. Along with a few others; sis, Dusty, Justice, Matthew. Truly thank you.

🎼: Brother ~ Need to Breath~

✈️ : Luane's World

Ramblers in the wilderness we can't find what we need

We get a little restless from the searching

Get a little worn down in between

Like a bull chasing the matador is the man left to his own schemes

Everybody needs someone beside em' shining like a lighthouse from the sea

Brother let me be your shelter

Never leave you all alone

I can be the one you call

When you're low

Brother let me be your fortress

When the night winds are driving on

Be the one to light the way

Bring you home

Face down in the desert now there's a cage locked around my heart

I found a way to drop the keys where my failures were

Now my hands can't reach that far

I ain't made for a rivalry, I could never take the world alone

I know that in my weakness I am stronger

It's your love that brings me home

Brother let me be your shelter

I'll never leave you all alone

I can be the one you call

When you're low

Brother let me be your fortress

When the night winds are driving on

Be the one to light the way

Bring you home
