This was the content of the Flickr post that we're told started it all. Written by Chris Maness way back at the end of 2012, the idea was picked up by a few interested members and one person inspired another, then another, then another; the idea grew legs of its own.

"Never Forget that contentment is the greatest wealth"
I could have stayed here for hours and watched this gorgeous duck stroll around this pond. His contentment made me feel the same way...it was contagious! He was "reflecting" contentment to me: ). I find that it can be the same way when being around people who exuded contentment, makes me want to linger in their presence. As Timothy says, "Godliness with contentment is great gain." The only way I experience this myself, is if I stay tight with God and talk to him about everything. Then, even if my storms don't go away, I stay in the "eye of the storm" at peace. It's a beautiful thing!
Enjoy every moment, it's a choice and they all count! Lovin' all your creative, unique, colorful, ingenious and incredible shots! Keep em' comin! : )
When you’re wrapped in the arms of your loved one, you feel a sense of security and comfort like no other. It’s a magical place where all worries melt away and only love remains. It’s a place where you can be yourself, without any judgment or fear. It’s a place where you find solace and peace.

I present here, on Flickr, a series of stolen and not stolen shots, rescued from oblivion, taken on the streets of Taormina, a tourist town on the eastern coast of Sicily. I took many photos by lengthening the exposure times, thus achieving a “blur” effect; I took portraits, especially of very nice couples, one of Chinese origin who got married in Taormina, one from Holland, another from Germany, portraits of very sweet and very nice Chinese girls, a very nice girl portrayed while she was working in a pastry shop, of the artist Leopoldo, a theater actor, who I had the pleasure of photographing (and posting) on several other occasions.
Presento qui, su Flickr, una serie di scatti rubati e non, tolti all’oblio, realizzati per le strade di Taormina, cittadina a vocazione turistica, della costa orientale della Sicilia. Molte foto le ho realizzate allungando i tempi di esposizione, raggiungendo in tal modo un effetto “blur”; ho eseguito dei ritratti, segnatamente di simpaticissime coppie, una di origine cinese che si è sposata a Taormina, una proveniente dall’Olanda, un’altra proveniente dalla Germania, ritratti di ragazze cinesi dolcissime e simpaticissime, una simpaticissima ragazza ritratta mentre lavorava in un laboratorio-pasticceria, dell’artista Leopoldo, attore di teatro, che ho avuto il piacere di fotografare (e di postare) in diverse altre occasioni.

I propose here, on Flickr, a photographic story, with descriptive text, of a traditional Sicilian popular festival that is always highly anticipated, it takes place in the town of Fiumedinisi (Messina), in the last 18 years what is called the "Great Feast" has been celebrated only 3 times, always on the second Sunday of August, it was celebrated in 2007, in 2016, this year 2025, in all three editions I took photographs, those that I now present are almost all of the "Great Feast" of this year 2025. The town of Fiumedinisi is inextricably linked to her patron saint, Our Lady of the Annunciation, every year a traditional procession is held on March 24th and 25th, on the 24th the procession is made by the faithful on their knees, they carry a large lit candle with which they help themselves to support themselves, it takes place along a straight path in what is called "street of float" (it joins two churches), the next day there is another traditional procession, the two "Sacred Float," that of the Our Lady of the Annunciation and that of the Archangel Gabriel, are carried on the shoulders, followed by the faithful, through the narrow streets of the town. Then comes the "Great Feast" in August, also linked to the Annunciation, which occurs every year after many years. It is on Christmas Eve that it is announced whether that year will be the year of the Great Feast. At Christmas, "the Son of Man" is born, incarnated in Mary's womb. It is the Archangel Gabriel who announces to Mary the conception of the Son of the Most High. The iconography of the Sacred Representations depicts him kneeling before her, offering her a lily, a symbol of Mary's purity. The "Great Feast" in August has ancient origins dating back to the 16th century, the period of Spanish rule in Sicily. It was initially celebrated on March 25th, the religious feast of the Annunciation of the Lord. Later, towards the end of the 19th century, it was moved to August to allow the many emigrants from all over the world to attend. In short, the "Great Feast" includes a "morning procession" led by three young men who will impersonate the three main characters on the "living float"—the Mary, the Archangel Gabriel, and the Eternal Father. Around 11:00 a.m., the "Great Living Float," a very heavy object carried on shoulders, will make its first journey along the "street of float" (the one traveled on one's knees in March, but also on the eve of the Great Feast) with the barefoot bearers in ordinary clothing. In the afternoon, many boys and girls dressed as angels take their places on special seats on the "Great Living Float", the "three characters" (the Mary, the Archangel Gabriel, and the "Eternal Father" at the top) take their places. Now the Great Float will make the same journey in reverse, carried on the shoulders of devotee-bearers dressed entirely in white, barefoot, thus arriving in the square in front of the church-sanctuary dedicated to Maria SS Annunziata. Once the journey has finished and the Float has been placed on the ground, the ceremony includes, and ends, with an ancient dialect song sung by the children, with microphones, who dress up as Mary and the Archangel Gabriel. A curiosity, this "Great Float", an enormous metal and wood structure, extremely heavy, requires perfect coordination between the bearers. It is essential to raise and lower it in perfect synchrony, with all its "inhabitants" atop it. It is therefore crucial to avoid any oscillations that would be transmitted to the children seated at various heights, and to the Eternal Father, seated very high up. The moments preceding the float's departure, and those following its arrival, are of great concentration, silence is absolute, the launch occurs at the third blow of the hammer, all the devotee-bearers rise in perfect synchrony and "the magic comes to life"...! The Great Machine travels the "street of float" upon its arrival, there is maximum silence, and at the third blow of the hammer the devotee-bearers lower themselves, placing the incredible Living Float on the ground, renewing before our eyes an event of beauty and absolute wonder, the unique magic of an ancient Sicilian feast tradition.

Propongo qui, su Flickr, un racconto fotografico, con testo descrittivo, di una festa tradizionale popolare siciliana sempre molto attesa, si svolge nel paese di Fiumedinisi (Messina), negli ultimi 18 anni quella che è chiamata la “Festa Grande” si è celebrata solo 3 volte, sempre la seconda domenica di agosto, è stata celebrata nel 2007, nel 2016, quest’anno 2025, in tutte e tre le edizioni ho realizzato fotografie, quelle che ora presento sono quasi tutte della “Festa Grande” di quest’anno 2025. Il paese di Fiumedinisi è indissolubilmente legato alla sua santa patrona, Maria SS. Annunziata, ogni anno si tiene una tradizionale processione il 24 e 25 marzo, il 24 la processione viene fatta dai fedeli in ginocchio, essi recano una grossa candela accesa con la quale si aiutano nel sostenersi, si svolge lungo un percorso rettilineo in quella che è chiamata “strada vara” (unisce due chiese), il giorno dopo si ha un’altra processione, classica, le due “Sacre Vare”, quella di Maria SS. Annunziata e quella dell’Arcangelo Gabriele, vengono portate in spalla, seguite dai fedeli, nelle stradine del paese; poi la “Festa Grande” di agosto, legata anch’essa all’Annunciazione, che avviene ogni volta dopo molti anni: è la notte di Natale che si annuncia se quello sarà l’anno della Festa Grande, a Natale nasce “il Figlio dell’Uomo” incarnatosi nel ventre materno di Maria, è l’Arcangelo Gabriele che annuncia a Maria il concepimento del Figlio dell’Altissimo, l’iconografia delle Sacre Rappresentazioni lo raffigura inginocchiarsi al cospetto di Lei porgendole un giglio, simbolo della purezza di Maria. La “Festa Grande” di agosto ha origini antiche che risalgono al XVI secolo, periodo della dominazione spagnola in Sicilia, essa inizialmente veniva celebrata il 25 marzo, con la ricorrenza religiosa dell’Annunciazione del Signore, successivamente verso la fine del XIX secolo venne spostata ad agosto, per consentire ai molti emigrati, provenienti da ogni dove, di potervi assistere. In maniera sintetica, la “Festa Grande” prevede una “processione mattutina” con in testa i tre ragazzi che impersoneranno sulla “vara vivente” i tre principali personaggi, la Maria, l’Arcangelo Gabriele ed il Padre Eterno; verso le ore 11:00 la “Grande Vara Vivente”, pesantissima, portata in spalla farà un primo viaggio lungo la “strada vara” (quella che viene percorsa in ginocchio a marzo, ma anche la vigilia della Festa Grande) con i portatori scalzi, in abiti comuni; il pomeriggio sulla “Grande Vara Vivente” prendono posto su appositi seggiolini tanti bimbi e bimbe, vestiti da angeli, prendono posto i “tre personaggi” (Maria, l’Arcangelo Gabriele, in alto prende posto il “Padre Eterno”), adesso la Grande Vara farà lo stesso percorso inverso, portata sulle spalle dei devoti-portatori vestiti completamente di bianco, scalzi, così giungendo nella piazza davanti la chiesa-santuario dedicata a Maria SS Annunziata, terminato il percorso e deposta a terra la vara, la cerimonia prevede, e termina, con un antico canto dialettale intonato dai ragazzi, microfonati, che vestono i panni di Maria e dell’Arcangelo Gabriele. Una “curiosità”, questa “Vara Ranni” (dialettalmente, Vara Grande), enorme struttura in metallo e legno, pesantissima, necessita di una perfetta coordinazione tra i portatori, è fondamentale alzarla ed abbassarla in perfetto sincronismo, con sopra tutti i suoi “abitanti”, importantissimo quindi evitare qualsiasi oscillazione che si trasmetterebbe sui bimbi seduti a varie altezze, ed al Padre Eterno, seduto molto in alto: gli attimi che precedono la partenza della vara, e quelli che fanno seguito all’arrivo sono di grande concentrazione, il silenzio è massimo, la partenza avviene al terzo colpo di martello, tutti i devoti-portatori si alzano in perfetta sincronia e “la magia prende vita”…! La Grande Macchina percorre la “strada vara”, al suo arrivo, silenzio massimo, al terzo colpo di martello i devoti-portatori si abbassano deponendo a terra quella incredibile Vara Vivente che rinnova davanti ai nostri occhi un evento fatto di bellezza ed assoluta meraviglia, magia unica di una antica tradizione popolare Siciliana.

I post these images and their content, not for fame or sympathy. I don't want or need anyone's sorrow, or praise. I’m hoping, these post will expose the extent our government agencies, corporations and some in law enforcement, will go to, to cover-up the truth. Please take a moment to read through this. I’ve spent the last 19 years of my life, trying to expose this. Share it with someone it may help.
This is some of the cost, I pay for Free Speech. Some, have payed far more. This is medication, I depend on daily. In the package was my blood pressure meds and medication for enlarged prostate. With intentional acts like this, who wouldn’t need high blood pressure meds. I too, have extremely large balls. The balls; from being a whisltleblower, consistently exposing corruption and Gangstalking The VA (Veterans Administration) won’t help me with that. They will contribute, to the constant harassment and Gaslighting. I know these are serious violations, but I have to keep my sense of humor. I won’t let these parasites, keep me down.
On my previous post (The American Bully Part 3), I mention, some of the Malevolent Characteristics of a Gangstalker. The image you see is retaliation for that. I wrote “The Post Office workers, that deliver your mail after the holidays, your birthday, or not at all”. Four days later, this is the package I received. There was a small tare in the package, that was over-killed with tape. Three of my medications; the bottles and caps were destroyed. Only a small portion of their medication, was in the bottom of the package. That’s why I used the plate. Not only were my meds in the package, but two other prescription, for another veteran, were included.
My meds came from a VA pharmacy in my state. The other veteran’s meds, came from a different VA pharmacy, in an adjoining state. That veteran’s meds were slightly dented, but not busted open.
When I pulled the package out of my mail box, I took a picture of it. This isn’t the first time I’ve had my meds tampered with. I took a video, as I pull the contents out of the bag. I also, took plenty of pictures. I called the VA pharmacy, right after, had a woman call me shortly after. With the information I gave her; she said she would have my and the other veteran’s meds expedited. Those involved in Gangstalking; could care less about anyone, or anything else they affects, as long as it has an impact on their target. I’ll probably not receive my blood pressure meds, before I run out. Do you think I might need it, with this kind of crap, continually happening?
I will be filing HIPPA and Mail Tampering, violation complaints, to the proper authorities. Again, having to deal with so many corrupt government agencies. I’ve had many delinquent excuses from agencies like these. I have my doubts. Do you really think someone will actually give a shit? Aren’t you fed up with the excuses; being treated like an ignorant child?
I’ve had problems with the mail carriers after moving here, in January, 2024. On 4-11-24, a carrier drove into my yard, along the side of my driveway. She deliver a package, to large to put in my mailbox. She apparently, had to drive on my lawn, to do so. You can see my drive, in the previous post. The same carrier, kept pulling far into my yard, to put mail in my mailbox. I put a security sign, from the security company I use for home security, beside the mailbox to prevent this. The next delevery, on 5-13-24, she ran over it, bent it so bad; I can’t use it. I had security videos of those, and pictures of the ruts, she made in my yard. I took them to the Post Office Manager. I didn’t get all pissy. I even asked her, if there was anything I could do to help. She looked at them, said she would come out and take a look. She came out, looked at my yard, gave me a call and said she would talk with the carriers.
I installed a new mailbox, shifted and stabilized the post. It put it closer to the road, in hope she wouldn’t keep driving onto my yard. It was better for a few months. Now it’s back to the same-o. Also, the Sherrif that was supposedly looking for a runaway girl, that was supposedly hiding in the woods behind my house. Drove into my yard, when my other driveway, was right beside where he pulled in.
Now the Gaslighting has increased dramatically. From the past and another previous post; The American Bully Part 2, I wrote “As we get close to the entrance; there’s a red pickup truck setting by the entrance. We pull up, and beside this truck. They dart off ahead of us; to the same parking area. There are many parking areas, in this rec area; but they pull into the same spot we normally park in. I park a few spots away”. A few days after posting that; a red truck, same make and model, delivers my mail. This person not only delivered, but took a second lap around the turn-a-round, in front of my house. I also. had someone open my mailbox and leave it open on 12-22-24, and 12-27-24. Now, I have someone in the neighborhood; tampering with my security camera feed. Along with that, I had several packages delivered, after the Christmas Holiday. My brother, living on a Caribbean Island; received his packages. They were sent from our same family members, living 13 hours, from my home. He received his, well before Christmas. Me, well after. Do you truly think; these are all coincidences?
The perps involved in Gangstalking, love to use their colors. It’s another trigger they use when Gaslighting and harassing. That’s partiality where the label Gangstalking, derived from. Also, blow-back from my previous two post; has these parasites, bumping up the harassment. Usually after a post like the “American Bully Part 3”, these parasites will crawl under their rocks for a day or two. Then, they get the all clear, come buzzing out like angry hornets. Local Law Enforcement, has given them a free pass to perform their Nefarious acts. Many in the community, dancing in the streets with glee.
Targeting, has become one of America’s favorite pastimes. Take a good look at our society. If you’re a Targeted Individual, violence is not the answer. Educate yourself, document everything, stay true to your character. It may seem like it, but you’re not alone. I’ll always be here, let everyone know, what we are going through; in a country that’s supposed to be Free.
