Many years ago I thought nothing of purchasing anything made of plastic. Looking at this image of plastic straws, I am reminded that it is up to each and every one of us to make significant changes to our lives if we care about our Earth and those who will live long after we have left this planet.
In my mind, this image has gone from one of captured beauty to one as a reminder that I need to be aware of my part in protecting Mother Earth.
"Knowledge"
by Jacob Lee
Sit close
Let me tell you every truth I know
I could read you poetry and prose
We could contemplate the syllables
If you so wish for it
If so
Let your consciousness dissolve like snow
Watch the branches replicate your bones
Place the precious palms among your own
Be the water and the boat, and so I stow
Every thought that lies inside of me
Atop the shelves, amidst my library
So when you're older you may visit me
When I'm at peace
Patiently, I reach up above
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
I will place my knowledge in your hands
It's okay if you don't understand just yet
Speak slow
Let me ask before I take a note
May I read a couple words you wrote?
Every page you touch, the letters glow
From the ashes do we grow
And I boast
I can comprehend the words you spoke
You're the writer and the quote, and so I hope
Every thought that lies inside of me
Someday finds its way from soul to speech
So I may bestow our legacy
Like you to me
Patiently, I reach up above
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
I will place your knowledge in my hands
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
Like trying to speak while remaining in silence
Like facing your fears without feeling frightened
I'll never know if I'm yet to try it
I'll do my best to stay open-minded
Patiently, I reach up above
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
I will place my knowledge in your hands
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
Patiently, I reach up above
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
I will place your knowledge in my hands
Flick a page until understand, I do, oh
Imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited whereas imagination encompasses the whole world.
The tree of knowledge, connecting to heaven and the underworld, and the tree of life, connecting all forms of creation,
are both forms of the world tree or cosmic tree,
and are portrayed in various religions and philosophies as the same tree
La strada che porta alla conoscenza è una strada che passa per dei buoni incontri.
The road that leads to knowledge is a road that passes through good meetings.
(Baruch Spinoza)

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad."
I saw this beautiful display of homegrown tomatoes at a local grocery store today. Being a foodie (and a photographer) I had to stop and take a photo. There's nothing like a fresh juicy tomato! And you better believe I bought a couple too. 😁

Es ist heute modern, Dinge die man nicht mehr braucht, in den Straßenraum abzustellen. Kleidung, Bücher, Spielsachen die gerne von anderen Menschen mitgenommen werden. Leider werden anonym auch Matrazen, Kühlschränke, Autoreifen und vieles mehr illegal auf die Straße gestellt.
Sobald die Müllabfuhr-BSR Kenntniss von einer illegalen Mülldeponie im Straßenraum hat, kommt sie und entsorgt ihn.
Bei der städtischen Müllabfuhr-BSR gibt es die Möglichkeit seinen gesamten Hausrat kostenlos zu entsorgen, man muss ihn nur selber hinbringen oder die BSR holt ihn gegen ein Entgeld auch ab.
Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Start in die neue Woche und Danke für Euren Besuch.

Today it is fashionable to put things you no longer need in the street. Clothes, books, toys that are gladly taken away by other people. Unfortunately, mattresses, fridges, car tyres and much more are also placed illegally on the street.
As soon as the rubbish collection BSR has knowledge of an illegal rubbish dump in the street space, they come and dispose of it.
You can dispose of all your household rubbish free of charge at the municipal waste collection service BSR, you just have to take it there yourself or BSR will pick it up for a fee.
I wish you a good start into the new week and thank you for your visit.

Il est aujourd'hui à la mode de déposer dans la rue des objets dont on n'a plus besoin. Des vêtements, des livres, des jouets qui sont volontiers emportés par d'autres personnes. Malheureusement, des matelas, des réfrigérateurs, des pneus de voiture et bien d'autres objets sont également déposés dans la rue de manière anonyme et illégale.
Dès que le service de ramassage des ordures (BSR) a connaissance d'un dépôt illégal dans la rue, il vient l'éliminer.
Il est possible de se débarrasser gratuitement de tous ses déchets ménagers auprès de la BSR, il suffit de les apporter soi-même ou de les faire enlever par la BSR contre une somme d'argent.
Je vous souhaite un bon début de semaine et vous remercie de votre visite.

This tree stands on a bank of the Saddle Brook, its roots tenuously holding on to very eroded soil. You can see the open roots on the bottom of this photo. It is a favorite tree of mine, a symbol of perseverance in the face of peril.

A geological hammer, in memory of Mary Anning (1799-1847) from Lyme Regis/Dorset, fossil collector and lay palaeontologist and one of the key figures in the discovery of dinosaurs. She was not an "Anglican gentleman", not part of the establishment, but a dissenter and a woman and as such not allowed to join the Geological Society of London. "The world has used me so unkindly", she wrote. Mitakon Speedmaster manual lens at F 0.95; reflector used; edited in Fujifilm's raw converter and refined in Luminar.

This was just a test shot ahead of my planned evening shoot, but to be honest I prefer this daytime version on account that the colours show up better, especially the middle mustard section and roof cylinder. And the new pool does lend itself for some great reflections.
KNOWLEDGE is the topic for Wed Jan 13 2021 Group Our Daily Challenge.
This guy was clever enough to grab the nuts that park visitors were feeding squirrels with, before a squirrel could spot them, which is a sign of knowledge.
Wikipedia says:
Ravens and crows are among the most intelligent birds. For example, they show in experiments the ability to plan complex actions. When hiding food, they show both great memory skills and the ability to empathize with others. A raven seems to know that a food hiding place is only safe if it is not observed while hiding. In addition, ravens show an amazing learning behavior (making tools, using road traffic to crack nuts and fruits....
San Francisco Square in the Historic Center of Quito.
From left to right, in the San Francisco building, you can see the doors of the Chapel of Cantuña, the Chapel of Villacísla, the main church, the convent and the museum.
***
The Church and its chapels (La Iglesia de San Francisco), which were considered sacred places.
Together, Church and Convent encompass three hectares including 13 cloisters (six of them major), three churches, and a large courtyard. In total, about 40,000 square meters of construction. San Francisco follows the classical typology of medieval monasteries. The main Church is the guiding axis and from there the cloister galleries extend: the refectory, the chapterhouse, and winery. These define a quadrangular courtyard, with the four respective pandas, or galleries: that of the chapter room, the refectory, the converts, and the mandatum. In addition to the basic dependencies of a convent, there were areas devoted to health care, education, crafts, a garden, and even a jail (to maintain strict discipline). The kitchen and dispensery operated in the cloister of services.

Walking from the Old Town’s narrow colonial streets into this open plaza reveals one of the finest sights in all of Ecuador: a sweeping cobblestone plaza backed by the mountainous backdrop of Volcán Pichincha, and the long, whitewashed walls and twin bell towers of Ecuador’s oldest church.

The Public Square (Plaza de San Francisco) was a purely urban space, demarcated and connected to various public activities (teaching, market, water supply).

Sad part of our History.
In pre-Hispanic Quito, the current lands of the Church and Convent of San Francisco were occupied by the royal palace of the Inca Huayna Cápac, before the advance of the armies commanded by the Spaniards from the south and the impossibility of defending the city the indigenous general Rumiñahui arranged the total destruction of it. In the city fire the palace was destroyed and buried under a huge amount of rubble and garbage. One of Rumiñahui's soldiers was the great-grandfather of the indigenous Cantuña, who as an eyewitness to the events had full knowledge of what was buried in the place. The construction of the church and convent of San Francisco began around 1537, just three years after the Spanish foundation of the city, with the completion of a provisional temple that was maintained until 1550, when construction of the current building began and which was completed around 1680. Although the building was officially inaugurated in 1705.
It’s important to know who you are. At least until you figure out that who you are has nothing to do with anything you think about that.

Too much of it and you risk being drowned by the flood. Too little and you risk being parched in a desert of ignorance. Balance your intake with a time of quiet reflection so it doesn't just flow through you, but nourishes you deeply..
Real knowledge, or what is better called wisdom, is not a triumph over mystery but a rapport with the mystery—and with the meaning for which it stands.

Dante had become a not unfamiliar figure in Verona. Boccaccio tells of several Veronese ladies who saw him walking by one day. They were struck and a little frightened by his appearance, his face fixed in gloom and smudged as though by soot, his beard bristling as though tinged with fire. He seemed, they thought, a character emerging from his own Inferno.
-R. W. B. Lewis, Dante; A Life
Forboding, expectant? or just a beautiful soul warmed by the light...this is one of those photoshop as therapy things...maybe I should just take it down...? I'm feeling a little intense these days...
