because some things
sometimes
aren't ours to hold,
but just beautiful
to listen to.

We actually got some rain yesterday! Guess my rain dance worked :)
North Yorkshire
The old lead mine is situated on the moors between Cononley and Lothersdale , North Yorkshire
The 1840s and 1850s saw the high point of production at Cononley Lead Mine which was owned, then as now, by the Dukes of Devonshire. The Dukes of Devonshire had inherited the manor once owned by the Earls of Cumberland.
Although there were exceptions, most of the men employed in the mine had moved relatively short distances to Cononley from other lead mining areas in Yorkshire.
Production of lead ore, latterly very limited, continued until 1881 when the mine was closed.
It is now a Grade II Listed building
Been on crunch mode in my RL work these past few days and i've been thinking how despite the mild complaints and all-nighters, I feel blessed to be able to do what I love. All the times i've struggled to find courage to follow this dream, and yet here I am, following the light that I knew would be there at the end of the tunnel. Still a long way to go, but I'll just keep following this light~

Meanwhile the rain in Sydney is causing hallucinations!!
It hasn't stopped for three days. It's like Woodstock!!
So here's 'Creedence Clearwater Revival' with their tribute to a vexed appearance at a rain-soaked Woodstock Concert in 1969:

"What to ourselves in passion we propose,
The passion ending, doth the purpose lose.
The violence of either grief or joy
Their own enactures with themselves destroy:
Where joy most revels, grief doth most lament;
Grief joys, joy grieves, on slender accident.
This world is not for aye, not 'tis not strange
That even our loves should with our fortunes change;
For 'tis a question left us yet to prove,
Whether love lead fortune, or else fortune love.
The great man down, you mark his favorite flies;
The poor advanc'd makes friends of enemies.
And hitherto doth love on fortune tend;
For who not needs shall never lack a friend,
And who in want a hollow friend doth try,
Directly seasons him his enemy.
But, orderly to end where I begun,
Our wills and fates do so contrary run
That our devices still are overthrown;
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own"

Verflossen ist das Gold der Tage,
Des Abends braun und blaue Farben:
Des Hirten sanfte Flöten starben,
Des Abends blau und braune Farben;
Verflossen ist das Gold der Tage.
