I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.

12 May is ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia International Awareness Day. Dedicated to all those who live in pain, physical and mental.
I care for someone who suffers chronic pain. I see how debilitating it can be and how it saps the very essence of a person. I send my heartfelt wishes to all who suffer. 💙
Viola flowers taken at Melbourne Botanical Gardens.
Let's hope there is a better outcome from the peace talks so all these unnecessary sufferings and destructions will end as soon as possible.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves... it is always appreciated..

"Zu verkaufen" means "for sale". Interested? Two former Warsaw Pact (probably from the former GDR) military vessels, disarmed, demilitarized, leaking oil and in various stages of rotting were for up for sale in Peenemünde harbour back in 2019. I blurred the phone number given on the port side of the nearer boat for obvious reasons...

I am not hundred percent sure of the ID of this bloom.... perhaps some one can help.
Thanks to Brian ( macro merriment ), Achim, Christine S, Yoko Okamoto for their efforts in the ID.....is it a plum or Cherry blossom?

When you feel weak,
when you need a shoulder to lean on,
a hug to warm you up,
I will be here.
I will be here to remind you of your worth,
to tell you how beautiful life is when you believe in yourself,
when you don't need confirmation from anyone.
I'll be here to help you spread your wings
and fly high, my little butterfly.
I love you, Athena...
