“Not everything that is lost is forgotten. And not every loss will hurt your heart forever. . .”
One of the things I’m not good at is grief. I know what you’re supposed to do, and I know all the words that people say. Even the things you say to others. I’ve read the steps, I know all the lines but the actual grieving is the hard part. When it comes to that, I’m the type who buries it away and carries on. . . .
Out of the air a voice without a face
Proved by statistics that some cause was just
In tones as dry and level as the place:
No one was cheered and nothing was discussed;
Column by column in a cloud of dust
They marched away enduring a belief
Whose logic brought them, somewhere else, to grief.
(W. H. Auden)

Primate DNA is only five percent different from ours. Like us, they feel jealousy, envy, love, shame, grief, depression... They are very social beings, they are sensitive and each one has a different personality, according to the experts, as happens in humans. They develop tools for specific purposes, which involves reasoning, anticipating the future and acting with the tool. They adopt orphans, which demonstrates social bonds, empathy and altruism. They have self-awareness, cooperative problem-solving and learning by example and experience, so they have symbolic capacity and a culture of their own, which they pass on from one generation to the next. Chimpanzees even surpass humans in certain memory tasks. An ape at the age of two is able to do small sums and use tools, while a two year old does not even know how to do sums or reason the why of the tool. They give pets to their children and they even learn words in sign language, being able to establish a conversation with their caregiver. They are able to teach their offspring sign language so that they can communicate with their caregivers. And so on. And they share a very important trait with humans, a trait not found in any other animal... laughter.
This image is dedicated to Bobby. Bobby was a chimpanzee used for decades as a laboratory animal at the Coulston Foundation in Alamogordo, New Mexico. He was born in captivity and at a very young age participated in biomedical experiments. By the age of 19, he had been anaesthetised more than 250 times and biopsied as many times. His life was spent in solitude inside a tiny metal cage. His body was bruised and scarred. In a deeply depressed state, he was incessantly self-harming, a clear sign that he intended to end his life. In 2002 he was transferred to Save the Chimps, a chimpanzee sanctuary in Louisiana, USA. Dedicated to Jeannie. Jeannie was in the service of science for nine years. At the age of six, she began her career in the pharmaceutical laboratories of Merck, Sharpe and Dohme. Shortly afterwards she was donated to the Buckshire Corporation and ended up at LEMSIP, Laboratory for Experimental Medicine and Surgery in Primates in New York at the age of 22. During that time she participated in several invasive experimental protocols including repeated vaginal douching, multiple cervical, liver and lymph node biopsies. She was infected with HIV and hepatitis C, and participated in rhinovirus vaccination protocols. She was anaesthetised more than 200 times. She died at the age of 31 at the Fauna Foundation, Canada's only primate sanctuary. Dedicated to Newt. Newt was born in 1979 at LEMSIP. At the age of four months he was sold to the Southwest National Primate Research Center in San Antonio, Texas. Newt was HIV-positive and was widely exposed to hepatitis B virus. Before he was four years old, he began intermittently self-harming. In 2003 he had his canines removed. Newt's clinical reports indicated that he had bites and lacerations on his hands, fingers, thighs, arms, legs, wrists and scrotum. A psychiatric report determined that Newt was in a profound state of insanity and derangement. He was attempting to commit suicide and end his life. This image is dedicated to all primates who have suffered psychological and physical torture, deprivation of liberty, abominable experiments and death in scientific laboratories, pharmaceutical, automobile, cosmetic, aeronautical, aerospace multinationals... and dedicated especially to Bobby, Jeannie and Newt.

Silvio Rodríguez - Al final de este viaje / Al final de este viaje (1978)
We are the prehistory that will have the future. We are the remote annals of man. These years are the past of the sky. These years are a certain agility with which the sun draws you into the future. They are the truth or the end, they are god. We are left, those who can smile in the midst of death, in full light.
Supergrass - Tales of Endurance, Pt. 4, 5 & 6 / Road to Rouen (2005)
Making sense of what I've heard and what is on my mind.
.....
PS: When I look into the eyes of an ape, all I see in them is sadness and eyes that ask me, why, why? And I can only lower my gaze to the ground, while I shed some tears and feel a deep shame... shame of being human... a "Homo stupidus".

What's Lost Spirits

In memory of Nick.
We raised a glass of Guinness to your birthday yesterday.
Some of you know that my life's partner and traveling companion died earlier this week due to complications from lymphoma.
We had many happy travels together and now the universe has shifted. I will always look for you.
"Will we never meet again no more?"
♪ Listen
The Rankin Family- Fare thee well love
So I'll drink today, love
I'll sing to you, love
In pauper's glory, my time I'll bide
No home or ties, love
A restless rover, if I can't have you
By my side
Taking a break for a bit.
'The darker the night,
The brighter the stars,
The deeper is the grief'. ~Fyodor Dostoyevsky~

When you've lost someone... and you realize it's forever.
Damn that hurts!
I don't ever want to go through this again.
I have to move on.

The name of this scultpure at the Vimy monument is 'Canada bereft' (or Mother Canada, she represents the country of Canada mourning her dead). She is the only figure carved from a single block on the monument, a block that weighed 30 tonne. She is also the largest figure on the monument.
At the Canadian National Vimy Memorial - including both this monument and a park with remains of the battlefield of Vimy Ridge, with trenches and the disrupted earth showing how the landscape looked not just here but along most of the Western front after the war.
The battle of Vimy Ridge was between Commonwealth troops (4 Canadian division and one British) and German forces on 9 to 12 April 1917 as part of the Battle of Arras. The Commonwealth had 170 000 men there, 3 598 died and 7 004 were wounded. It is not known how many of the Germans that were killed or wounded. (The memorial area also includes several Commonwealth war cemeteries.)
This monument commemorates not only the Canadians who died here, but all Canadians with no known grave from the First World War, all in all 11 169. The land was given to Canada by France in 1922 and work began in 1924 after a design by Walter Seymour Allward. It was officially unveiled in 1936 by king Edward VII.
No howl can lift the morning fog,
No paw can heal the pain once dealt.
With heads bowed low, the pack moves on—
Goodbyes are hard, but must be felt.
... because of the truths that are revealing themselves in the present situation of the Corona hysteria ... -
... about the people, the politicians, the society ... -
not that I didn't already knew these truths,
but the scale of it is devastating.
[5. April 2020]
♫ Love is a slow song
Playing on the Radio
I know every word by heart
Happiness is soft light
That we see our lives by
Only fading to the dark ♫
Grief and hope do not seem to belong together,
yet strangely they fit—
like two old companions, distant but bound to one another.
Grief cannot stand without hope,
and hope often rises in the wake of grief.
I took this photo around the time i lost my Real Life brother. Sent me into a dark place, and i wanted to somehow capture the emotions of grief i was feeling at that time
The Search
Demeter, Persephone's mother, wanted to know about her daughter. But Cyane no longer had a body, no longer had a mouth to explain. And the girls didn't know what to tell her ...
Blinded by grief, Demeter sent an icy wind over the world that made the land barren.

This series of pictures was loosely based in the myth of the abduction of Persephone, the Goddess daughter of Demeter and Zeus. Some scenes are depicted in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, others in Ovid's Metamorphoses.
