Western Wall (Kotel), Jewish Quarter, Old City, Jerusalem, Israel
"Part of the western retaining wall of the Temple Mount, the Western Wall was built by Herod the Great during his expansion of the Temple in 20 BCE. The wall became the Jews' chief place of pilgrimage during the Ottoman Period. In this period it become known as the 'Wailing Wall', where Jews lamented the destruction of the Temple by the Romans in AD 70. This is still the closest site to the Temple where Jews can pray (many rabbis say Jews are currently forbidden by Jewish law from ascending the Temple Mount, and in any case secular and Muslim authorities do not allow Jews to pray on the Temple Mount). The plaza in front of the Wall is divided by a fence, with a large area for men on the left and a smaller area for women on the right.... The wall acts as an outdoor synagogue with written prayers inserted into the crevices between the large stones." (source)
Yes let's meet autumn as our mid-autumn festival is coming! Things do converge mysteriously with or without you knowing or seeing, finding the connections is no big achievement but brings small pleasures to our lives.
I was in Seoul 2 weeks ago meeting Mr. Nam who's company Appree just launched "Leaf-it" and already shipped to Japan's Marcs International for distribution. The leaf post-it comes in 8 different types, each with various sizes and colors of leaves. I hope they are coming to our stores soon.
Two days ago I received a Mackinaw Autumn package from Field Notes, another hint of autumn coming, in colors I'm so very in love with. I regret that I missed their summer collection (Butcher Orange, Butcher Blue, Grass Stain Green). Hmmm.... so Tradio Nature just came to me, Leaf-it and Mackinaw Autumn are both on my desk now, they are all here to set something in motion, the welcoming of our 3,000 years old tradition, mid-autumn festival.
Tasty moon cakes await us, beautiful lanterns hanging all over the places, family gathering dinner and Chiu Chau tea ceremony at home..... such a pleasant anticipation. I particularly like what the shops do on Queen's Road West, about 5-6 stores normally selling incense for worship now hang hundreds of lanterns so beautifully which lighten up the streets. I was there with family on Sunday night, people were there lingering in such warm atmosphere. Tomorrow we will definitely go the park with our lanterns.
PS. My son told me something funny this evening: "God has no time to talk to us, because he has to make up some homework for us, so God is very difficult and we have to thank Him". Where did he get the ideas?

I took notes on my body this day. This Aussie buddy here wrote: "The glitter cascading down my crack tickles."- A funny quote that we heard from our Silver Surfer long boarding friend pictured below: www.flickr.com/photos/sweendo/2781795107/

Our Daily Challenge ... note. Looks good in lightbox!
I don't usually have many notes in my purse but I advertised and sold some surplus furniture at the weekend so for the moment I have quite a few!
Finally found a good use for my Field Notes, documenting notes for team meetings and active projects with Mule.
Constelaciones, auroras, galaxias, eso siento en mi pecho cuando tus manos bordean mi cintura, cuando nuestras bocas estĂĄn cercanas pero no se tocan, cuando somos uno solo en el universo. eres mio aunque no seas de nadie.
