Your memory is a monster; you forget - it doesn't. It simply files things away. It keeps things for you, or hides things from you - and summons them to your recall with a will of its own. You think you have a memory; but it has you!
John Irving
This quote is taken from an amazingly complex and poetic autobiographical work by Yiyun Li called Dear Friend, From My Life I Write to You in Your Life. Highly recommended...I finished it a few weeks ago and still can't stop thinking about it. Here's a review of it from The Guardian:

This is one taken by my grandfather, who would have been 110 today. It was taken in the late 50's and shows my mother with her mum. My grandfather's love of photography is the reason for my love too. I wish I know what camera/film etc he used for this shot. Wonderful memories.

JOHAN TINGLÖF. Legendarische klokkenmaker, geboren in 1751, overleden in 1812. Van Tinglöf werd gezegd dat hij bovennatuurlijke krachten bezat, waardoor hij overwicht had op mens en dier. Hij bouwde de torenklok van de kerk op 21-jarige leeftijd en zette zijn handtekening op meer dan 400 bewaard gebleven staande klokken. Als gevolg van zijn verzet tegen de parochieheren werd hij uit het dorp verbannen en stierf hij verarmd in het Stakberg-huisje in het bos. Volgens de legende zou hij over de torenklok hebben gezegd: "Als ik sterf, zal hij stoppen". Ondanks verschillende pogingen na Tinglöfs dood is het niemand gelukt de klok weer aan de praat te krijgen.

JOHAN TINGLÖF. Legendary clockmaker born 1751, died 1812. Tinglöf was said to be imbued with supernatural powers which gave him ascendancy over human-beings and animals. He built the church´s steeple clock at the age of 21 years and put his signature to over 400 preserved grandfather clocks. As a result of his defiance against the parish overlords, he was banished from the village and died impoverished in Stakberg cottage in the forest. According to legend he was quoted to have said about the steeple clock “when I die, it will stop”. Despite several attempts following Tinglöf´s death, nobody has succeeded in re-starting the clock.

This Lego wedding cake holds two big memories for me. Growing up, my best friend from grade school and I played with Legos all the way into our college years. As you can likely tell, these are the classic Legos before they came out with the themed kits. This cake reminds me of my childhood friend and the good times we had together.
He was the Best Man in my wedding and used his collection of Legos to build this cake to present to my wife and I on our rehearsal dinner night. This cake is also a lasting memory and symbol of our wedding day and marriage.
This cake has been on display in our home every day for the last 34 years (35 years this November).
Shot for Smile on Saturday! :-), Full of Memories
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same
Now my heart feel like December when somebody say your name
'Cause I can't reach out to call you, but I know I will one day, yeah
Everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts someday, aye aye
But everything gon' be alright
Go and raise a glass and say, aye

Today's advent calendar door contained a memory with pictures from the past year :)
Yesterday I also took a picture, but I didn't like it that much, so the upload for day 341 just stays off :)
Memoris of freedom. Now travel is restricted, it's good to look back to the memories in pictures in 2019, the last year of freedom. We never thought of that. It will never be the same again ever, as my personal conviction goes. Normality will never come back, call me pessimistic and KJ all you like but face the truth and don't be too damn to look continually at your rose coloured glasses. Or unless you take the snake bite you feel a bit secure, but not when you know there's dead witch concoction snake venom in that which pierced you skin. I'm not getting it.

" Do you not know that you yourselves are God’s temple, and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? 17If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple..."
This Farm Reminds Me Of A 3rd Grade Class Trip I Was On. The Teacher, Mrs Irving Asked Everyone What Sounds We Had Heard At The Farm.
Billy Perkins said, "Moooo"
Susie Clapper said, "Baaaaa"
Jimmy Wilson said, "Quack Quack"
When She Asked Me, I Said The Sound I Heard Was The Farmer Shouting, "Get Off That Fuckin' Tractor!"
The day I was leaving Lisbon, I returned to this alley with the clippings to shoot it with a different film. I was pleasantly shocked to find so many clothes on it. :-)

Boyhood series is a narrative visual confession which maps both personal and mediated experiences. Boyhood is a time in our life when we begin to discover ourselves through inner dialogues and explore our self identity. We connect with everything around us, begin to discover and close in on ourselves. We create isolated places where we feel safe from all the hustle and bustle around us. Even so, a form of alienation can be poetically and visually beautiful. I offer the viewer a look at the emotionally unfinished stories. I create images that appear to be stills from a film as untold stories. What led to this situation and what will happen next is a question for all of us, which I am looking for an answer to.

Another version of "Blue Dawn" in mono! I don't like posting 2 versions but think with this they are so different and both work well for different reasons.

Organising memory, or, organised remembrance. Somebody is remembering on your behalf. It is late October, but the pre-fab decorations have already been mounted in the run-up to the Armistice date of WWI. Behind all this is the British Legion which is liaised to the industrial-military complex and to royalty. They keep the memory of war and of "the ultimate sacrifice" alive. They may have their reasons.

You know when you'll be yourself? When you're not afraid of being yourself. When the imagination is more than memory. If you could stand against the time...

The noticeboard in my hallway serves to jog my memory - without it I am struggling to figure out what day it is!
It is constantly changing - added to and taken away ... Full of tempting notices, postcards and all sorts of other jolly things!
La violencia contra las mujeres, en todas sus formas, es una de las mayores vergüenzas de la sociedad moderna. Mi más profunda condena y mi más absoluto desprecio hacia todos esos miserables, independientemente de su nacionalidad, origen, credo o clase social, que, por acción u omisión, permiten que esto siga ocurriendo. No merecen, ni tan siquiera, el calificativo de animales ... mucho menos el de hombres.
Acabar con la supuesta superioridad del macho está en nuestras manos. Nosotros no somos sus dueños. No somos propietarios de sus vidas. No somos superiores a ellas. Son nuestras compañeras, no nuestras propiedades. No nos pertenecen.
Sé un hombre de verdad y denuncia y combate cualquier tipo de violencia / discriminación machista desde todos aquellos ámbitos a los que tengas acceso. El problema no está en ellas, el problema está en nosotros. La solución también: ... educación en la igualdad e intolerancia con los agresores.
Violence against women, in all its forms, is one of the greatest shames of modern society. My deepest condemnation and my more absolute contempt for all those miserable, regardless of their national origin, creed or social class, that by action or inaction, allow this to continue happening. They not deserved, not even the label of animals ... much less than men.
Stop the supposed superiority of the male is in our hands. We are not their owners. We are not owners of their lives. We are not superior to they. They are our partners, not our properties. They do not belong to us.
Be a true man and denounces and fights any kind of sexist violence / discrimination in all those areas to which you have access. The problem it's not in they. The problem it is in us. The solution also: ... education in the equality and intolerance with the aggressors.
