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

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....
my new (long) series coming up I guess :)

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

“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.”

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!
You are beautiful when you appreciate your flaws. You are wise when you learn from your mistakes."
Happy Weekend my dear friends ❤️️

“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

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

The name INNERER SCHWEINEHUND describes - often as a reproach - the allegory of weakness of will, which prevents a person from performing unpleasant activities, which are either seen as ethical, or which seem reasonable for the person concerned.
