I am so tired of all the bad things going on in the world, someday i hope the world turns around -
Which makes me think of this : Turn the darkness into light
Turn the hunger into life
Turn the wrong into right
Put an end to the strife
Turn the blindness into sight
Save a human life
Make the world turn around
-Steve Miller Band
This brave little mallard duck was forging ahead out on the frozen Fox River in Batavia, Illinois on this brisk Valentine's Day morning. Temperatures ranged from -4F to +3F, or -20C to -16C using the other arbitrary scale.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but do not quit.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow—
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out—
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit—
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
Excerpts from a little poem that I remembered from my pledge days. I thought it would be an appropriate lift for the spirit, especially during this time of global financial struggle where the common man is hit hard. Never quit, my friends. As the great vince Lombardi had said, "Winners never quit, and quitters never win".

I was really feeling in the mood to call it a day but 291 days in tells me that I can do it. I've come so far, learnt so much and I will finish what I started even if it stresses out and makes me (temporarily) hate photography.
AN ode to the women athletes competing from India....with very little Government support, shaky infrastructure and unsupportive social norms
Walking a path through the forest isn't always as easy as this. In fact, very often we discover no true path exists and we have a choice to make...
Do we give up? Do we keep looking for a path already made? Or do we strike out to make our own path?
So much of the time we dream of success and encounter a sea of forest impeding our way. It's easy to get lost, so we seek a path someone else has already carved. And when we don't find one, most give up.
Look, no one said it would ever be easy, but the goal is just on the other side! What's stopping you from reaching it? A little hard work?
Eventually you'll have to make your own path through life's forests. But I guarantee you this... When you look back from the other side, you'll realize how much stronger you became as a result, and when you achieve your goals, you'll admit it was worth it.
Sometimes there will be a clear path in front of you, and sometimes you'll have to make one yourself. The only real question you have to ask yourself is...
Are you willing?
We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen. - D. H. Lawrence

I'm so proud of my Kansas City Royals who won the 2015 World Series; 12 innings tonight to win the Series 4 games to 1. And it's still Sunday, so this is for Sliders Sunday. Yeah Royals, you are an awesome team.
And I need to make it to the K next year for a game so I don't have to keep reprocessing the same photo from last August.
As I anxiously awaited Game 7 of the World Series yesterday, I reprocessed this photo by adding some fireworks with the hopes that I would get to post it following a World Championship win by the Kansas City Royals. That didn't happen, but I decided to post this anyway, as the Royals are winners in my eyes. This is a team that hasn't been to the postseason in 29 years after they won the World Series in 1985. This is a young team of home grown baseball players who are paid relatively cheap compared to what some teams pay their players. This is a team that was 7 games out of the American League Central two times this season and came back to end the season one game back from the Detroit Tigers. This is a team that was down two times in the Wild Card game to the Oakland Athletics and came back to win that game in extra innings. This is a team that swept both the LA Angels and the Baltimore Orioles to make it to the World Series. This is a team that took the verteran San Francisco Giants to seven games in the World Series where they lost by only one run and had the tying run on third only 90 feet away from home base. This is a team that captured the hearts of a nation; with 49 states out of 50 cheering for the Royals. This is a team that brought so much joy and excitement to loyal Royals fans who had stuck with the team for those 29 years. Sure I was sad last night that they couldn't get over the hump against the best pitcher in Major League Baseball. I am also sad that this magical season is over. But my overriding pride in this team in what they accomplished quickly took over. Congrats to the Giants on a World Championship and THANKS ROYALS FOR THE GREAT CHAMPIONSHIP RUN. You are truly ROYAL in my eyes.
