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

Hey Everyone ! Have a wonderful week ahead .. enjoy yourselves and spread some love around ! Thanks again for having a look ! .. Twain 💖

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."

 

~Beau Taplin

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.

 

A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths;

feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit;

recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities.

William Arthur Ward

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.

       

“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.”

― 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.”

Maturity starts with self-awareness. Understand and acknowledge your strengths and weaknesses; your failures and successes; your preferences, your dislikes, and your interests. Accept yourself as you are, not as a limitation, but as the foundation for everything that yet maybe. Understand that you may not have had full control of your past, but it was what it was. Liberate yourself from the guilt of self-blame. Your past has helped you become what you are today. Know yourself, know what you want, do what you have to do. Let others worry about their perceptions of your reality. That is their problem. For you, only your own perception of you matters. Be the best you that you can be. Only you will know when you have accomplished this.

“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.”

― Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing

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

until you come face to face with your greatest weakness.

—Susan Gale

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but

of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues.

They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.

~ Washington Irving

 

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!!

Mother Teresa

Thoughts from a Pagoda

 

Sweeping the yard

Cutting the flowers

Preparing prayer seats

Meditating

Facing my own fears and weaknesses

Embracing them with kindness

Conversation with Buddha

Reading the Sutra

Helping for dinner

Eating a bowl of rice

Enjoying each grain of rice one by one

Being grateful for the sun, clouds, rain, for the hardworking hands of the rice farmers

Feeling the cycle of life

Consciously drinking a sip of cool water

Closing my eyes

Feeling the refreshing waters of life

Understanding how little it takes to be happy

Understanding how unimportant I am and how much that can mean

Watching the night lay its soft blanket over the sun

Closing my eyes silently, tired but happy and being fulfilled

Feeling gratefulness for being a small part of life

 

Soon I will be back again

In the oversaturated, blind everyday life

Like a little snowball

Lovingly and carefully shaped by gentle hands with fresh snow

Clean and softly formed crystals

Then rolling down the hill of life

Faster and faster, unstoppable

Accumulating stones, dirt, brushwood

Losing the original shape and purity

To arrive deformed at the bottom

To search my soul again

Dear friends! I heartily congratulate you on the New Year 2020! Last year, thanks to your support, I better recognized my strengths and weaknesses in photography! Undoubtedly, without you and your work and comments, the year would have been different! I wish you all good health and new creative successes. Sincerely, Oleg P (Listenwave Photography)

 

Last year, some of my works looked more than 10,000 times. I hope in the New 2020 we have this figure will be 100,000! I wish everyone to increase everything by 10 times!

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons

Finally content with a past I regret

I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness

For once, I'm at peace with myself

I've been burdened with blame

Trapped in the past for too long

I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces

Each one is different, but they're always the same

They mean me no harm, but it's time that I face it

They'll never allow me to change

But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
