The Shepherds calender, March

 

While in the pale sunlight a watery brood

Of swooping white birds flock about the flood

I really did not see the people in this until I edited. I always try to protect privacy.

About balance

 

The reason why balance is important lies in the prevalence of imbalances. Therefore, balance and imbalance are equally important. And a world that is out of balance and a world that cannot be unbalanced, or life, is equally scary and absurd. However, balance or imbalance may be just an illusion, especially when these processes are too long and exceed our patience or the length of our lives, and sometimes give us a false sense of happiness or pain. So we come to realize that balance and imbalance may be the most fundamental attribute of time, which are difficult to show in paintings

About loss.

Oracabessa, Jamaica

 

Our small group of five were the only visitors at Firefly. We wondered if, perhaps, Noel Coward, is unknown to some of the younger tourists in Jamaica. The house is unchanged since the day Noel Coward died and clearly in desperate need of restoration...although the site is beautifully maintained. It saddens me to think how it will fare in the future.

Thank you!!

Feeling nervous about the new year, the little man tries to stop the clock…

  

As we head into the new year, I wish for health and happiness for you and your loved ones.

 

Let’s keep lifting one another up, sharing kindnesses and support, understanding that every one of us is valuable and has something important to share.

 

Let’s remember that together we shine so much brighter, a beacon of light and hope that reminds us and others that we are one.

 

Let’s keep offering one another a hand when we fall down, giving each other a little nudge when we get stuck, realizing we’re all on the same team.

 

Let’s keep learning, listening, encouraging, connecting, growing, inspiring, and creating.

 

Stay confident. Stay strong. And don’t let anything stop you from blazing your trail.

 

Happy New Year, everyone!

I did a very quick online check, and there are at least fifty songs where the mighty Ford Mustang gets a mention - with Mustang Sally being the first on the list. Which reminds me - I have a fellow village resident called Sally! Another shot for another day!

 

By contrast, my real car, a Mazda 2, features in one song (and that surprised me that it even got a mention in anything!) by someone called meetcute!

I live in a small town called Bondurant just outside of Des Moines, Iowa. It's a nice place with 9,000 friendly faces. However, that is a significant increase from the 7,365 residents counted in the 2020 census. We just had a β€˜special census’ to determine that new growth and it’s hard to believe we had a population of 3,860 back in 2010.

 

One of the newest additions to our town is a commercial property located in the center of Bondurant. There are three tenants: Buck's Depot (a bar and grill), an Edward Jones office (financial services company) and The Creamery (ice cream, slushees, etc). Unlike many rural areas, we are lucky to not have a bunch of empty storefronts and abandoned buildings in town. However, The Creamery is already β€œtemporarily closed”. It’s probably not a big concern, it is November and ice cream is probably not in high demand this time of year. The alcohol and financial establishments will certainly survive.

What Can I say??

I CAN'T SEE YOU!

Pose: Mad about you!

About a year ago, I told someone I knew that I really like good cover versions of songs, so they gifted me with a list of their favourite twenty cover versions of songs. Anyway, long story short, last September I glanced at the list again, and suddenly thought about how much fun it might be to make a photo inspired by each of those songs.

 

This picture was inspired by song number 5 in the playlist, Dreams, originally done by Fleetwood Mac, but the version on my list is performed by The Electric Peanut Butter Company.

I'll admit, I struggled with this one a bit, and thus ended going for a fairly literal translation of a few key parts of the song, particularly focusing on the words: loneliness, heartbeat, rain, and crystal visions (literally, I am toying with a crystal heart in the rain, cold and alone).

  

Fun fact: While I was doing this particular photo shoot, I did get a bit distracted by a guy hitting on me while he stood nearby gawping at me. It was a nice enough chat, but it went nowhere in the end. It turns out, the romcoms might be rather overplaying the romantic side of two people being together in the rain.
