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

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

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.

Part of getting through life is accepting, and dealing with, our weaknesses. Which doesn't mean they aren't still a pain in the butt.

 

Me, I'm over-sensitive to all kinds of sensory input - and input affecting my sensors. For instance, even in August in our constant ocean breezes, I daren't go outside without my ears covered.

 

This is, of course, a huuuge pain. When everyone else is out in shorts and bathing suits, I'm sweating with a big fleecy band around my head. It sucks, but the alternative (excruciating ear aches) sucks a whole lot worse.

 

I'm also overly sensitive to noise. And bright light. Especially bright flashing light that hits my eyes unexpectedly. So... imagine how much fun I am as a companion at a rawk show. Normally I take along ear plugs. Last night I forgot.

 

I guess I was lulled into complacency by the fact that the show was at a theatre. A play house. A place I last attended in my teens, when I saw some Shakespearean production there. So yeah... I went in plugless. And immediately regretted it. Still... I was up for enjoying myself... until the %$(*&$%(&ing light show started.

 

I can't imagine whose idea it was to flash big spotlights directly into the audience's eyes repeatedly throughout the night. Probably the same wise person who decided a super-bright sign behind the band... illuminated by 10,000 1,000 watt bulbs... was also a very good thing to flash repeatedly in the audience's eyes.

 

What really amazed me was that no one else seemed bothered. Whereas I was in several sorts of agony all night.

 

The bright flashing lights. Fuck, man. I thought I was gonna have a seizure or something. I ended up spending most of the night doubled over with my head in my lap, eyes closed, hands clamped over my face. Every time I tried to enjoy actually watching the band... zappo! Unexpected blasts of super-bright white light set off pinball explosions in my brain.

 

So today is pretty much a write-off. Migraine city, man.

 

And I HATE HATE HATE that my body is so delicate.

 

I'm from sturdy peasant stock. Why am I so fragile? Why do things that normal people take in stride disable me?

 

Sorry for the whining self-pity. Kee-rist. At least I know, without a doubt, that I am now too old for rawk shows. Goodbye youth. Your time has come and gone. From now on I'll just satisfy myself by listening to records at home.

 

i am having some weakness for Romans, and Greeks lately....

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.

       

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

“As delicate as flower, as tender as rose petals, choosing to be tender and kind in a harsh environment is not weakness, it's courage.”

Picture Taken @ Octopussy

  

After a long day of exploring the two companions Lori and her Panda (Pani) sat down to reflect on the little things in life, and to share some quotes as well as to enjoy the view surrounding them.

 

They talked about the little things in life, and they both agreed that the little things in life matter a great deal, but we often times forget their significance. The little things can help us realize what is important in life, what our likes and dislikes are, what our strengths and weaknesses are, to be grateful for the deeds, a hug, the kindness and smiles from others, it can make a difference to our mood and mindset, as well as help us see the type of person we are or want to be. In other words it can help us see ourselves, others and the world around us in a different light.

 

They also agreed upon the importance of making sure to take time for your self every day to digest and reflect on your day and all the little things you have experienced. One of the most important little thing in life is to tell those who matter in your life that you love them, care about them and appreciate them. We can all share little things every day, with someone, even with a stranger, and it might mean the world to them.

 

“For if we can’t learn to be kind to each other how will we ever learn to be kind to the most desperate parts of ourselves.”

 

– Rupi Kaur —

  

“The little things amount to big things.”

 

— Robin S. Sharma —

 

“In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.”

 

— Khalil Gibran —

  

💖💕💖 Happy Valentines day to each and everyone of you my dear friends here. I hope you all have a lovely day. Remember that the little things matter and to also be good to others and your self.

 

💖 Huge hugs, light and love sent to each one of you. 💖

 

Best wishes and regards

Your lost friends are not dead, but gone before, Advanced a stage or two upon that road Which you must travel in the steps they trod.

 

Aristophanes

 

Emelia who walked the final path in the evening on Monday, 10th of august 2020, is survived by her husband. she finally succumbed to bone marrow cancer. at the final moments her husband never realized that she had started on her final journey as she had her eyes closed peacefully and a smile lingered on her lips.

 

ever since yesterday when the news came, i am being haunted by those big, dark, bright eyes that had once stared deep into my soul and that comforting soothing smile that made me straightaway fall in love with her personality.

 

some moments that are refreshed...

her hands were really big and solid...the glass bangles i brought from India broke...ha ha ha

the red 'bindi' on her big forehead! like an Indian guru...wish she could spend some time in meditation in the Himalayas...but never mind, she is in a better place, closer to HIM.

at the ripe age of 65 she took up boxing! unbelievable energy she had, that made her a Reiki Master'...(i often used to ref to her with this title)

 

she was very interested in hinduism...so

Gayatri Mantra offered in her memory

 

youtu.be/9blhAvwTDss

 

please pray for her departed soul and for strength to her husband and loved ones who need to overcome this irreparable loss

 

i too need a little time to myself, so shall be away from all social media for some time...

 

i believe tears are not sign of weakness ,,,

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

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

 

Thomas A. Edison

   

The quiet sense of something lost...-- Tennyson

_______________

 

That feeling where something is happening–a thread of your life is losing its elasticity and slipping from your grasp; it is slipping so quickly you cannot think of what to do, how to save it, and yet it is slipping so slowly, drawing out every question of hesitation, every second of regret.

 

I can’t be the only person who knows this feeling.

 

It is the sense that a crossroad is soon looming in the near horizon, ready to shake your foundation and force you to make a choice.

 

It is the sense that every word, every action, every decision will shape a little bit more of who you are and who you will become.

 

It is the sense that illuminates every weakness in you, every bit of traction inside of you.

 

It is, in the words of Tennyson, “the quiet sense of something lost.”
