Cuandoel alma descansa y la conceincai la respalda .............
algo en que pensar.
Something to think about it,
A bull elephant stands under the shade of a tree in the midday heat of 34C during Winter at Etosha national park, Namibia...the only movement was its ears flapping to keep cool and this very slight turn of its head acknowledging that it was aware of our presence...
For this weeks theme "blue for you me - 2023".
Our health is the most precious thing we have, we cannot take it for granted.
Overcast day with steady breeze. This bird of prey was watching small birds moving below. It was constantly scanning the surrounding area.

Breast cancer death rates declined 40% from 1989
to 2019 among women. The progress is attributed
to improvements in early detection.

*****************************************************************************
The United Nations General Assembly has designated November 25 as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (Resolution 54/134).[1] The premise of the day is to raise awareness of the fact that women around the world are subject to rape, domestic violence and other forms of violence; furthermore, one of the aims of the day is to highlight that the scale and true nature of the issue is often hidden.
Par. 237: Coming back to herself, she retained in her memory the sweetness of this contemplation, delighting in it, without, however, experiencing it again. And remembering what she had seen and understood, comforted by the indescribable divine sweetness, she reposed peacefully in the arms of the Beloved, burning with the fire of love. Then she understood the sense of the words cited above, but less by intelligence than by experience, with the purified eye of the spirit, and she became aware that she loved herself perfectly for Christ’s sake, but that there are few who reach this summit of perfect love.”
-Excerpts from Beatrice of Nazareth’s “Vita” and “The Seven Manners”
(WOMEN MYSTICS IN Medieval Europe Emilie Zum Brunn and Georgette Epiney-Burgard)
Situational awareness (or lack of it, in fact) in Rome.
For an account of a few interesting days in Rome:
Background:
"Forget ME not" was created to raise awareness about M.E (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) - an extremely debilitating, life changing, complex chronic disease that has received shamefully low attention and fundings for research for decades. Patients are being disbelieved, misunderstood and dismissed. There is no treatment and no cure.
Over 20 million people across the globe are affected and in the aftermaths of COVID this number is quickly rising (many Long Covid patients end up being diagnosed with M.E).
During our events in May we will create awareness, break the stigma and fundraise for the "Open Medicine Foundation" who conduct research into M.E, Long Covid, Fibromyalgia and related chronic conditions. They are a registered, US based non-profit organization that has been around for over 10 years.

A Statement Against Pollution
This was a sculpture I did for an exhibition done in collaboration with the Moving Ethos Modern Dancer Company called Purity & Pollution. It was floating in the pool during the exhibition. It is entirely made out of garbage (rubbish) and is mostly made of plastics, although glass and cans (tins) are included and the surfboard of course. I am trying to encourage people to throw their garbage (rubbish) in the appropriate places, not just throw it anywhere thereby destroying, land, birds, animals, the ocean, and other waterways.
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The 10th Annual Drive for the cure Canada (to raise Prostate Cancer awareness) held its annual car show at the Brampton Powerade Centre. there was a bevy of beautiful classic cars; so many wonderful automotive designs from years gone by and all in one place. there were well over four hundred cars on display. .
I have always loved sports cars, that is probably why I love this classic 1957 convertible Porsche 356 speedster in jet black, it was lovingly restored and maintained by the fifth owner who spent nine years rebuilding and repairing this lovely small classic..

On May 12 it's ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia International Awareness Day.
This week we try to bring awareness, recognition, and support those who suffer ME, CFS, and conditions with similar effects.
This is an issue close to me. I suffered from CFS for years. Family members, and neighbors still do. Everyone probably knows someone who does. It is a trial, a seemingly endless journey.
I wish you light, life, energy, health of mind, and body.
Blue for you - ME 2022 is the theme on Smile on Saturday this week (7-May-2022).
Find smiles wherever you can! 😘😀😍😄❤❣♥😎🐴🐸🐱👽

Being aware is being alive, remember that you aren't your mind and your thoughts, you are the one observing it the "I" that is consciousness.

Photography is all about memories for me. One of my favourite shots of all time is a photograph I took of my children walking ahead of me around a local reservoir, with a seven year old Nicky looking back towards me, a protective arm around her little brother. I'd not long purchased my first SLR camera, a second hand Praktica, at a time when there were still some years of film ahead of most of us before digital cameras became what they are today. Now the two subjects of that family jewel are aged 30 and 28, yet all these years later that memory; that sense of simple pleasure at being where we were shines right through the photo as if it were frozen in time.
Photography, always something I've enjoyed, became a more urgent obsession around six years ago when Lee and Dave suggested I join their newly formed gang. Before I knew it I'd bought a Canon 70D and a couple of reasonably priced lenses, and my initiation into the world of landscape photography was complete. What I hadn't realised at that time was how many fantastic memories the adventure ahead of me would bring. What I'd never considered was that the new hobby would take me to places I'd barely dreamed of before. Places like Iceland. I was aware that Iceland was sparsely populated and dramatic, but I'd also heard that the beer in Reykjavik cost twelve pounds a pint and that it was cold all year round. It seemed unlikely that I'd ever really consider going there until Nigel Danson, Tom Heaton and a veritable flood of other YouTube influencers began to demonstrate to me exactly why I should stop worrying about the price of the beer and get on the plane.
Lee and I hired a VW camper in the summer of 2019 and spent a week touring the Snaefellsnes peninsula and then the ring road, a journey which brought us here to Skogafoss on the final evening. It was one of the locations we'd looked most forward to seeing. What's not to love about about a 60 metre high, 25 metre wide single drop waterfall? What makes it really compelling is that you can stand right in front of it - and by that I mean at just a few metres distance where you can listen in wonder to the thundering sound of thousands of gallons of water hitting the shallow basin at your feet each second. You'll get wet - possibly soaked in fact, but it will be worth it. It's like no other experience I've ever hand. Iceland has some huge and epic waterfalls, but you can't stand in front of them all like this.
Our plan to photograph Skogafoss involved the use of plastic sandwich bags to protect the cameras from the spray, despite us having stationed them at a judicious distance from the waterfall. This initially drew some bemused expressions from those around us, although later we caught some of them racing for their tents and vehicles before returning to the scene, armed with sandwich bags of their own. Once the last few strays had left the scene, I ran across the space between the cameras and the waterfall in my welly boots like an excited seven year old, over and over again until we'd got the shots we wanted.
See that little speck standing in front of the almighty drop? Yes, that's me, taking an overdue shower after a week in a VW campervan, enjoying a moment that will last forever. Who'd have guessed before they started out that a love of photography could bring memories as good as this?
Thank you for stopping by.
Thank you Chris Lenz Buscaglia
October
O hushed October morning mild,
Thy leaves have ripened to the fall;
Tomorrow's wind, if it be wild,
Should waste them all.
The crows above the forest call;
Tomorrow they may form and go.
O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow.
Make the day seem to us less brief.
Hearts not averse to being beguiled,
Beguile us in the way you know.
Release one leaf at break of day;
At noon release another leaf;
One from our trees, one far away.
Retard the sun with gentle mist;
Enchant the land with amethyst.
Slow, slow!
For the grapes' sake, if the were all,
Whose elaves already are burnt with frost,
Whose clustered fruit must else be lost—
For the grapes' sake along the all.
Robert Frost
