Bones found outside and inside of a crypt that has long been forgotten about. The bones were gathered up and returned to the grave that had been dug up inside. Sorry if these photos upset anyone.
There was an old man in the village who brought bones and other food leftovers to his spruce forest for wild animals for years. He especially cared for the fox. He's gone for two years now, but this morning I had to think of him.
The Capela dos Ossos (English: Chapel of Bones) is one of the best known monuments in Évora, Portugal. It is a small interior chapel located next to the entrance of the Church of St. Francis. The Chapel gets its name because the interior walls are covered and decorated with human skulls and bones. The Capela dos Ossos was built in the 16th century by a Franciscan monk who, in the Counter-Reformation spirit of that era, wanted to prod his fellow brothers into contemplation and transmit the message of life being transitory, a very common spirituality theme summed up in the motto memento mori. This is clearly shown in the famous warning at the entrance: Nós ossos que aqui estamos pelos vossos esperamos (“We bones that here are, for yours await").
"Bone pointing" is a method of execution used by the Australian Aborigines. It is said to leave no trace, and never fails to kill its victim. The bone used in this curse is either made of either human, kangaroo, emu or even wood.
Before it can be used, the kundela (bone) is charged with a powerful psychic energy in a ritual that is kept secret from women and those who are not tribe members. To be effective, the ritual must be performed faultlessly. The bone is then given to the kurdaitcha, who are the tribe's ritual killers.
These killers then go and hunt (if the person has fled) the condemned. The name, kurdaitcha comes from the slippers they wear while on the hunt. The slippers are made of cockatoo (or emu) feathers and human hair - they virtually leave no footprints. Also, they wear kangaroo hair, which is stuck to their bodies after they coat themselves in human blood and they also don masks of emu feathers. They hunt in pairs or threes and will pursue their quarry for years if necessary, never giving up until the person has been cursed.
The condemned man may live for several days or even weeks. But, he believes so strongly in the curse that has been uttered, that he will surely die.

Obviously, a bone that still has a pulse isn't used.

My Monster High skeleton! I started her out in full color, but her little face is so sweet that it became overpowering. Then I put the top hat on her and she became very cabaret...
This image shows an osteosarcoma cell with DNA in blue, energy factories (mitochondria) in yellow and actin filaments, part of the cellular skeleton, in purple. One of the few cancers that originate in the bones, osteosarcoma is extremely rare, with less than a thousand new cases diagnosed each year in the United States.

A broken bone can heal, but the wound a word opens can fester forever.

How true !!
One little boneless muscle can do so much more damage than you can imagine.
It can help you make few friends or create an army of enemies.
Well thought words can encourage an entire nation, where careless blabbering can break someone's heart.
Let's be careful about what we say and thankful for the people whose words inspires us everyday.

(P.S. - do not worry. Me and my hands are perfectly fine.)
This wallaby died a few months ago and its bones had been scattered around by foxes, however its spine is still largely intact.
