"People are afraid that if they let go of their anger and righteousness and wrath, and look at their own feelings-and even see the good in a bad person-they're going to lose the energy they need to do something about the problem. But actually you get more strength and energy by operating from a place of love and concern. You can be just as tough, but more effectively tough."
~ Robert Thurman
What makes you different? What makes you who you are?
I'm noticing now the things that separate us from one another. Living with a wing full of people does that. I'm noticing now that I have a some quirky stuff.. like my love for art history, for artistic photography, for obscure music.. that sort of thing. I'm realizing now that those are the types of things that set me apart.
We all have those little pieces of our personality that make us who we are. And it's our choice whether we embrace them with open arms or choose to throw them to the winds. Are you afraid of who you are? Or are you confident enough to be different?
just some thoughts.
It’s a joyful to watch them having so much fun while sitting on the wall. Their loud giggles brought smiles.
It reminds me of the sweet times when I was young, innocent, and not afraid of anything.
I can climb the tree to the top branch. I can jump off the swing while it is going its highest. At my age? I need a staircase to beat them up.
Still bothers me that I don't know what she was looking at, when I took the picture I was in a hurry and didn't catch the wholeness of the situation, something I deeply regret now.
wish I knew, wish I knew....

That red one, would be me...and you! As much as we are the same, we all have something or things about us that stand out in the crowd. I enjoy seeing a hyrbid plant with it's original self pushing back, at least that is what I believe is going on, with this ixora.
I like to say, I fly my freak flag high! Don't be afraid to stand out and be your authentic self! The coolest people will appreciate it! Hugs!
Hugs and thanks for viewing! =o)

Saturday night in Newbury, UK. John's final footsteps... this was another great night of street theatre.
The story of John Ever Afraid tells how after 600 years the unlikely hero comes out of hiding, how he stumbles confused and bewildered across the country, how his plight awakens ancient spirits from their slumber and how the devil and his revellers seek to capture him. John Ever Afraid must face his fears to outwit his foes.
A macabre rock and roll band atop a double decker bus processed up Northbrook Street, flanked by skeletal crows – the devil’s stiltwalking acolytes – heralding the arrival at the Market Place of John, a massive puppet, to face his demons.
Joshua 6:1 (NLT)
Now the gates of Jericho were tightly shut because the people were afraid of the Israelites. No one was allowed to go in or out.
DRAWING NOTES:
TIME OF DAY:
This scene is what I imagine you would have seen from inside the city gates. I have set this scene in the early morning.
LIGHTING NOTES:
The early morning sunlight is shining down from above the walls, & casting long, deep shadows across the scene.
CHARACTERS PRESENT:
Various Canaanite people. In the background we see four men placing a huge wooden cross bar into four bronze gate bars, to keep the Hebrew people out. In the fore ground we can see 2 soldiers & a mother & daughter, al looking fearful.
RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Jericho is located 846 ft (258 metres) below sea level in an oasis in Wadi Qelt in the Jordan Valley. The annual rainfall in this egion is 6.4 inches (160 mm), mostly concentrated between November and February. The average temperature is 59 °F (15 °C) in January and 88 °F (31 °C) in August. The constant sunshine, rich alluvial soil, and abundant water from the spring of Ein es-Sultan, have always made Jericho an attractive place for human agriculture & settlement. Jericho is considered to be one of the oldest inhabited places on the planet, with estimates that suggest 10,000 years of human habitation.
We know from the scriptures (Joshua 2:9 (ANIV)) that the Canaanite people were afraid of the invading Hebrew army, ‘..."I (Rahab, the woman who hid the two Hebrew spies) know that the Lord has given this land to you (the Hebrew people) and that a great fear of you has fallen on us (the Canaanite people), so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you.”’
I could find little evidence of what city gates might look like. I imagined they would be very thick wooden planks, with bronze bindings to strengthen them, which is what I have depicted. Similarly, it proved difficult finding any reference to Canaanite arms & armour. The fall of Jericho occurred at the end of the Late Bronze Age. This being the case, I have shown both armies in leather armour, with wood & cast bronze weaponry - axes & spears.

Last month Junior decided to move to our backyard. As I wrote on the June photo, he looked a little sickly and was very afraid of humans.
A couple of weeks ago hubby took Nitro, our dog, outside and in an instant Nitro had Junior pinned to the ground and Junior was doing everything he could to get from under him. There goes life # 1
Eight more lives to go. . . . .
Last week, Tuesday, we could not find Junior anywhere in the yard. The last time I had seen him was the night before, curled up next to our kitchen door, fast asleep. He would play with Nitro through the glass door, but still would not let me pick him up. When by Thursday night he had not come back I thought he had been killed by some other animal.
Just as furiously as I had been looking for him in my neighbor's yards, I started disassembling my yard and porch looking for any remains. I moved a piece of wood that was almost flush to the wall and there he was, still breathing, but barely moving; extremely filthy and with a foul smell about him. I wrapped him on a towel and sat down waiting for him to pass. At that moment I thought the most humane thing would be to take him to the vet to have him euthanized. I decided to wait for the vet office to open in the morning. In the mean time I cleaned him and realized he didn't have any bites however his eyes were full of gunk and his nose was very stuffed. I mixed a bit of antibiotics with warm milk and put some in his mouth. He didn't try to swallow, but it did go down his throat. Little by little, drop by drop, I was able to feed him the milk. I made him a nest in a box and put him in it to spend the rest of the night.
Next morning, when I went looking in the box, he wasn't there. He was in his 'litter' corner of the yard relieving himself. Very unsteadily he made it back to the porch and laid down. I offered him some food and he started eating. He has been kept on antibiotics since and this morning I found him perched on his favorite tree where he sits and stares 'down' at us. Life #2 gone
Seven more lives to go . . . . .

sorry
I remember ordering this book from Scholastic Books when I was a kid. As a horse-crazy girl, I loved C.W. Anderson's books and illustrations.
I read every horse book I could find--from The Black Stallion to Misty of Chicoteague and Black Beauty.
I don't know what horse-crazy girls read today but I doubt if it's Black Beauty. I suppose they read Saddle Club series books.
I'm afraid, Santa will be late this year. One of his reindeer is stuck at my place doing shots of Jack. Sorry kids!
Used SB800 in remote, fired it pointing away from fireplace. Handheld because I forgot my tripod at friend's house.
Setup time: 45min
shots discarded: 56

My piece for the great art exhibition HM8:SHADOWNESS
Inspired by a fragment from the song Death whispered a lullaby, perform by Opeth.
NBL Class 43 Warship diesel hydraulic locomotive - production was split with Class 42's being built in Swindon and the North British Locomotive builds taking place in Scotland. Cat. L205128.
Addendum: a little rant I'm afraid.... just watching Mangley Town on yt... reviewing the 1979/80 Lima UK OO and N Gauge catalogue. I'm a bit gob-smacked by the WR diesel hydraulics pages... I wasn't even here to study those.. but they leapt out at me like a banshee wailing 'error, error, error!' from their photographs The first thing, given my predilection for a minutiae of accuracy, the Westerns are shown with what appears almost like the Hornby cab glazing insert, badly executed, which is soooo weird because the actual models were sooo accurate. Was that a pre-production sample in the main picture of D1016? The smaller images are less distorted... and then I spot the Desert Sand Western.... captioned exactly the same as the BR Blue D1071 Western Renown... oops Lima! Come on!!! Opposite page we see the Warships.... and again they jump out at me! And what at first seems like a distorted front nose, may be emphasised by the positioning of (and presence of given previous discussion) of hand-rails on the nose under the windows - not in the position of the actual locos, but right under the windscreen either side - too long for the early variants and to short and out of place for the later variants by quite some stretch - and given the fact that in my models, several don't have any moulding for these handrails at all, but a few, probably later built ones do - in the right place... these again must be pre-production images that raise the interesting possibility that initially they got this very wrong, which I'm guessing they got told from feedback, and then possibly abandoned the nose hand-rails until a later moulding could be afforded! Also the pitch of the nose on the Westerns and Warships is too steep, and not found like this on what are very accurate models when they arrived... so again, corrections were made... maybe enabling the more finely adjusting of these to become the amazing models they were - should we say 'oh happy errors'?!!! Lastly, another faux-pas by Lima... the description of the history of the Warships, and captioning refers to the Class 42/43 "Warship".. which is fine... but then they claim... "Built at the Swindon works....." which is odd, as they got the Westerns dual build locations of Swindon and Crewe correct on the previous page, but here fail to mention that the 43s were built in Scotland by NBL! Am I done yet? NOT A CHANCE!!! Ranting on..... ok so the captioning error for the Desert Sand western we know should have been D1000 Western Enterprise.. but all OO modellers of any age know - Lima messed that up too into production, giving the running number of D1023 to Western Enterprise in the biggest bungle of model railway history! Just search for that and you'll find copious comments! Considering how late in the game Lima were releasing these - well after their withdrawal from BR service - I can only imagine the mirth among modellers at the time discovering these errors for the first time... and the shock for others who bought products only to realise they had been told a pack of -ahem - shall we call them 'foibles' - confusing the detail of these models. At least one thing is clear, Lima were making an effort by this stage to produce realistic UK stock... now widely recognised - and is a massive step up from what I was commenting on yesterday, and was previously being passed-off as BR but was in fact continental outline engines, as with the diesel shunter. I rest now...!
I'm afraid I suffer from Agraphobia. I was told a black one had been projected to be built on the other side of the river, and I was far more interested in imagining it, looking at its foundations, than I was with the white one... As you see, I was there but looking at shoes.
