Emotional abuse is a reality and many women live their lives not recognizing this abuse. A mark on your skin speaks for it selves. A mark on your soul is invisible.
"You never really know someone until you’ve tried to leave them."
Many many times women understand the emotional violence in a relationship too late and the marks left are deep and unfathomable. However, many are so focused on physical forms of violence that they too often miss the warning signs of emotional abuse. So, here they are, some of warning signs of emotional violence. An abuser will:
1. disrespect your privacy, checking all your private messages, voicemail, email, etc;
2. damage your favorite objects;
3. create your alienation from your connections, controlling your social and familiar life;
4. withhold affection from you in a way to punish and control you;
5. threat to expose you in an embarrassing way and make you feel ashamed for who you are;
6. use magical tricks to distract you from reality, so you don't see and feel the repeated abusive behaviors;
7. control your money and where you spend it;
8. give you excessive gifts to make you realize what you will miss if you decide to leave or to use them to show you how much they care.
These are some of the possible behaviours you will find in an emotional abuser. Jump out of the daily routine and analyze the behaviors. If you feel you are in an abusive relationship, don't be ashamed and seek for help.
Remember, you are not alone.

What is Kiemo Galerija or the Courtyard Gallery?
Kiemo Galerija, is a courtyard in Kaunas that has been transformed into an alternative art space.
Originally this was set up Vytenis Jakas with a few art pieces inspired by the Jewish residents that used to live here during the interwar period.
It challenged the idea of "home", whether it is a space with a lock and key or a community, and how modernisation has alienated societies and neighbours.
But, over time, the street art yard has expanded and invites local artisans and street artists from around the world to take part.
Walking inside Kiemo Galerija is almost like entering an alternate reality, where anything is possible.
Art Illusions, ghosts from the past, famous characters, colourful murals and protest pieces cover the walls making it an interactive creative space enjoyed by anyone who visits.
The history of Kiemo Gallery
The Kiemo Galerija was started by Vytenis Jakas who moved into the residential space above the courtyard.
He was annoyed about the lack of community spirit in the area. What used to be a thriving community of people who all knew each other, turned into residents living separate lives with a nod or a quick hello. It also was used as free parking and there was lots of litter that was taking up the area.
And, the project worked. Over time, it slowly eroded the alienation between them and brought the community together. To understand each other and make an effort to connect.
It also helped clean up the area and stopped so much rubbish from being dumped.

'Message in a Bottle' is a good song. That can move me.
I like the idea that while it's about loneliness and alienation it's also about finding solace and other people going through the same thing. The guy's on a desert island and throws a bottle out to sea saying he's alone and all these millions of bottles come back saying, So what So am I!
I like the fact that the whole deal is clinched by the third verse. It makes a journey.
— Sting. November 1993

the architecture is strict, the rhythm relentless. every beam, every panel, every fluorescent light – all pulling forward, forward, forward. he doesn’t fight it. he rolls along with his suitcase, eyes ahead, steps measured, mind elsewhere. this isn’t travel. this is routine wrapped in glass and symmetry. a visual echo of movement without meaning. the modern ritual of departure.
I decided to take this shot from outside the room, through the glass window to add to the alienation of this scene.
As in Louis Guglielmi's 'Terror in Brooklyn' and George Tooker's 'Government Bureau' the glass represents the separated loneliness which we all live in, whether alone or in society.

The reflection creates a visual blur and extension, creating a sense of space between reality and illusion.
The red umbrella appears isolated in the empty, reflective space, symbolizing the loneliness and alienation felt by individuals in modern society.

Entry for World Photography Day 2024 - Urban section
The current situation in Germany frightens me more than ever before.
I fear that even more people will be hunted and killed soon.
Our politicians, the elected representatives of this country, a country
that claims to be liberal and democratic, are preparing the ground for this, or rather, they are willing to accept that the ground is being prepared for it.
We are far too close to the American situation, where one setback after another occurs where people are far from reaching their goal! Where one life-threatening restriction after another is imposed, where art, even spoken literature, is banned, as if art posed a danger. See 1933.
ART is not DANGEROUS, whom and what we do not know is not dangerous as well.
As long as people don't learn to locate the cause of their own alienation, their own anger, their own inadequacies within themselves, and as long as people aren't willing
to take responsibility for themselves instead of screaming at others and kill others, nothing will change.
By this, I'm not saying that our responsibility doesn't also lie in creating structures within which material, psychosocial, and physical equality and responsibility for one another can be guaranteed and thus practiced.
We are all equal by nature; we are thrown into the world and will one day die.
And nothing we tinker with externally can change that, unless we become aware that there are living beings, whether human, animal, or plant, that depend on our sense of justice, our empathy, and our support, precisely BECAUSE they are no different from us.
Everyone is equal; everyone should have the same rights and be treated equally.
The earth gave birth to us, not we the earth.
So many people have already said: a society is always as strong
as its weakest elements.
The word "weakness" should certainly be discussed here.
Being weak often simply has to do with being pushed into a certain position by an existing power structure.
I can counteract my helplessness in the face of current developments a little bit in my work as a therapist.
I would like to do more.
And same time I am afraid it could already be too late

In From Williamsburg Bridge,Hopper depicts the austere façades of four apartment buildings and reduces the suspension steel bridge that gives the painting its name to the margins.Completed in 1903 and connecting Brooklyn with Manhattan,the structure is indicated only by the unobtrusive taking rising at a slight diagonal along the bottom of the canvas.As opposed to focusing on the bridge that facilitates movement in and out of the city,Hopper creates and image absent of noise or motion.He emphasizes the alienation and anonymity of urban life by including a single figure,a woman sitting alone in a top story window.

Taking its name from the 19th-century publications of the same name, penny dreadfuls, and inspired by Alan Moore's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the series intertwines the origins of horror characters such as Victor Frankenstein, Dorian Gray, Dr. Jekyll, Count Dracula, werewolves, witches and vampires, all of whom grapple with their monstrous alienation in Victorian London.
Summer is a more distant memory... how time flies.
Technology evolving at an unbelievable pace, it was never easier to communicate, all is faster, not fast enough, call me, text me, skype me, email me... and yet more and more lonely people, alienation, families dispersed...
And COVID tops it all of course.
Wishing you well, and thank you, M, (*_*)

Mariah Carey - A Vision Of Love
www.youtube.com/watch?v=tov22NtCMC4
Treated me kind
Sweet destiny
Carried me through desperation
To the one that was waiting for me
It took so long
Still I believed
Somehow the one that I needed
Would find me eventually
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
Prayed through the nights
Felt so alone
Suffered from alienation
Carried the weight on my own
Had to be strong
So I believed
And now I know I've succeeded
In finding the place I conceived
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given me
I've realized the dream
And I visualized
The love that came to be
Feel so alive
I'm so thankful that I've received
The answer that Heaven has sent down to me
You treated me kind
Sweet destiny (and you know that you did)
And I'll be eternally grateful (oh, oh, ooh)
Holding you so close to me (prayed through the nights)
Prayed through the nights (so faithfully)
So faithfully (faithfully)
Knowing the one that I needed (no)
Would find me eventually (who would find me?)
I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me
I had a vision of love
And it was all... that you turned out to be
Wish You Were Here is the ninth studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd, released on 12 September 1975.
The album's themes include criticism of the music business, alienation, and a tribute to founding member Syd Barrett, who left seven years earlier with deteriorating mental health.
Wish You Were Here is Floyd's second album with a conceptual theme and was written entirely by Roger Waters. It reflects his feeling that the camaraderie that had served the band was, by then, largely absent. The album begins with a long instrumental preamble and segues into the lyrics for "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", a tribute to Syd Barrett, whose mental breakdown had forced him to leave the group seven years earlier. Barrett is fondly recalled with lines such as "Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun" and "You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon".
Happy Anniversary, Wish You Were here
"So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here."

"No news is good news," the saying goes. This empty bulletin space outside a municipal park has a sad feeling, suggesting an encroaching urban decay and the dissolution of community spirit; the alienation that is ironically so often found in places with large amounts of people.
It's easier. Enjoy the itch of fake alienation together, enrage yourself cumulatively with an egregious sense of wrong, huddle together and demolish those filters of uncertainty that ought to trigger hesitancy and reflection, open your minds collectively to the pap of propaganda, phantom grievance and prompt remedy. And then you will be ready to cut off heads.

Shot taken for Saturday Self Challenge 12/07/2025 -- Legs .
Just a shot of a couple of legs - alien legs !! The Greys are sitting comfortably on their crystal stools as they observe what we are all up to down here on Earth and watching what a complete shambles the human race really is and what a major mess we are making of the planet - guess they are thinking that their long term experiment is going down the pan !!
My first idea for the challenge was a surveyors tripod , big chunky wooden ones that are rock steady for theodolites to sit on - but I have not had my hands on a tripod like that since the end of the 1970s !! So , thinking out of the box and out of this world I came up with these characters !!

Behind the masks of total choice, different forms of the same alienation confront each other.

“A lone walker is both present and detached, more than an audience but less than a participant. Walking assuages or legitimizes this alienation.”
― Rebecca Solnit, Wanderlust: A History of Walking
Despite the crowds and ceaseless activity of people in the distance, the woman appears completely alone, lost in her own thoughts and emotions. Her expression is one of quiet sadness and resignation, a reflection perhaps of the sense of alienation that can accompany city living. It is an evocative image that to me captures the complexity and often overwhelming experience of feeling alone in a crowded place.
Town Hall, Sydney

"There is a new global imperialism imposed by a core of capitalist nations in support of trillions of dollars of concentrated investment wealth. This new world order of mass capital has become a totalitarian empire of inequality and repression.
The global 1%, comprised of over 36-million millionaires and 2,400 billionaires, employ their excess capital with investment management firms like BlackRock and J.P Morgan Chase. The top seventeen of these trillion-dollar investment management firms controlled $41.1 trillion dollars in 2017. These firms are all directly invested in each other and managed by only 199 people who decide how and where global capital will be invested.
Concentrated global capital becomes the binding institutional alignment that brings transnational capitalists into a centralized global imperialism facilitated by world economic/trade institutions and protected by the US/NATO military empire.
This concentration of wealth leads to a crisis of humanity, whereby poverty, war, starvation, mass alienation, media propaganda, and environmental devastation have reached levels that threaten humanity’s future."
