“It’s not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.”

Sir Edmund Hillary

The full quote from the Roman poet Virgil's Eclogues X, 69 dated to 38 BCE is 'omnia vincit amor et nos cedars amori' or 'love conquers all; let us too, yield to love!' A passionate declaration that speaks to us across the centuries and is sure to inspire the adventurous.

It's FANTASY FAIR TIME!

Happy bokeh wednesday!

“Never say that you can't do something, or that something seems impossible, or that something can't be done, no matter how discouraging or harrowing it may be; human beings are limited only by what we allow ourselves to be limited by: our own minds. We are each the masters of our own reality; when we become self-aware to this: absolutely anything in the world is possible.

Master yourself, and become king of the world around you. Let no odds, chastisement, exile, doubt, fear, or ANY mental virii prevent you from accomplishing your dreams. Never be a victim of life; be it's conqueror.”

― Mike Norton

The Dymocks Building. Built in 1928.

The Palazzo architectural style.

428 George Street.

The City of Sydney.

The Dymocks Building, aka 'The Block', was conceived by architect F.H.B. Wilton in the 'Interwar Commercial Palazzo Style'. It was to house the 'less elite' or 'bazaar' style of retailing, with specialty businesses offering a wide range of more unusual goods and services. At street-level it was the home for the bookshop which has developed into the iconic modern Dymocks Bookstore, Sydney's premier bookstore. See:

Encountered by me today, Monday 5th June, 2023, when I visited Dymocks Bookstore in George Street, Sydney.

Timmy der Eroberer sitzt gerne auf dem Baldrian-Topf

Happy Caturday 27.2.2021 "Purrsonality"

This week I had to take Timmy to the vet again because he was injured in one ear and smelled bad from this ear. It was one of his regular fight injuries, which had become infected. He got an antibiotic shot and I got a bottle of iodine solution.

Amazingly, he let me rub his ear with an iodine cloth two or three times a day. He probably knows that I am helping him. However, he loves it already longer, if I rub with my nose in his ear :-)))

I also found white fur under his claws - so his fight with Sammy was probably a draw ;-) I hope the two of them will stay out of each other's way for a while.

The two rascals often fight at the border of their territories - the creek. Three times in the distance of about six weeks they both landed in the brook. I then always need 4-5 towels to get him halfway dry. Then he gets grounded until he is completely dry and also to cool down.

Life as a daddy of a conqueror is not boring and not cheep! This time: 111.14€ :-)

Diese Woche musste ich mit Timmy mal wieder zum Tierarzt, weil er an einem Ohr verletzt war und aus diesem Ohr schlecht roch. Es war eine seiner regelmäßigen Kampf-Verletzungen, die sich entzündet hatte. Er bekam eine Antibiotikum-Spritze und ich ein Fläschen Jod-Lösung.

Erstaunlich: er läßt mich sein Ohr mit einem Jod-Läppchen abreiben. Er weiß wohl, dass ich ihm helfe. Allerdings liebt er es ja schon länger, wenn ich mit meiner Nase in seinem Ohr reibe :-)))

Ich fand unter seinen Krallen auch weißes Fell - sein Kampf mit Sammy war also wohl ein Unentschieden ;-) Ich hoffe, die beiden gehen sich jetzt mal eine zeitlang aus dem Weg.

Die beiden Schlawiner kämpfen ja oft an der Grenze - dem Bach. Dreimal im Abstand von etwa sechs Wochen sind sie dabei beide im Bach gelandet. Ich brauche dann immer 4-5 Handtücher um ihn halbwegs trocken zu bekommen. Dann bekommt er Hausarrest, bis er ganz trocken ist und auch um sich abzuregen.

Das Leben als Daddy eines Eroberes ist nicht langweilig und nicht billig! Diesmal waren es 111,14€, allerdings mit einer Wurmkur :-)

Captivating, entertaining, catchy songs brilliantly delivered with Ruarri Joseph’s languid style, superbly backed by Naomi Holmes on bass and Harry Harding on drums.

Performed at Café Thirty8, Marlborough, organised by Sound Knowledge record shop.

All these vicious feelings

Like ghosts haunting and watching me fading

Can you blame 'em?

When my heart's like a shell

And this head feels like hell

Is it a waste of time to live my life?

Wish that I could be your hero

But I can hardly save myself, save myself

Hey, Trapped in bad dreams played on repeat

I need a cure for my head

Wars raging on inside of me

And I don't know how it ends

I was scrubbing the archives today and this previously overlooked photo surfaced.

Centuries ago ruled here tides and the people were dependent on the whims of nature. The current landscape still shows the traces.

Overwonnen op de zee

Eeuwen geleden heersten hier eb en vloed en waren de mensen afhankelijk van de grillen van de natuur.

Het huidige landschap laat nog steeds de sporen ervan zien.

Gansbaai coast, may 2022. It is interesting to look how some plants in areas with enough floor and no light competition spread in horizontal direction. I could not identify this plant so I would love to know some more if there is someone could give me some light about!

so i made a new years resolution... finally...

i'm conquering my fears this year. starting with yesterday.

my number one fear was needles... i took 4 yesterday in my gums without crying.

i know it sounds funny as hell because i'm almost 20... but needles used to be the scariest things... ever ever ever to me. but now?

i'm a big kid now!!

=) next step : airplanes.... this one might take a while. hahah

ps. seriously, join my fb group. it's awesome.

For quite a few years this bird, a Common Yellowthroat, was my nemesis bird. I saw the occasional few but had never gotten a picture of one. Between two outings in the last month or so, I have been able to capture a few half decent shots, plus saw more this day at the marsh than ever before!
