Son passati già due anni, ma mi pare ieri...

ricordo perfettamente questa foto, la sua costruzione e a chi pensavo di dedicarla, un amico che ama i lampioni e che però da più di un anno non ritorna su Flickr.

 

Sorry, to me is very difficult to visit people that always only leave a fav without commenting...

I wish you were here!

Sooner or Later we must all say goodbye.

How cool is this. A restaurant that has fresh Crab or Shark. I didn't realize people ask for fresh Shark that much. Seems like they must or maybe it's just a specialty of the house.

Saw my old college room mate the other day. He was somewhat younger than I because I went into the military before college. I started talking to him and he looked at me and said, Jim is that you....So, I decided I'm never going out again

They are talking about going to tier 5 here, whatever that is. The only place I go is to the bathroom and the grocery store. Don't know how I can stop either one of those events.

 

Snow looks like sugar, but its taste is completely different ;-))

Have a lovely Sunday ahead ;-))

Looking Close on Friday theme: raindrops or dewdrops

The Western Wall, also known as the "Wailing Wall" or the "Kotel," is one of the most significant religious and historical sites in Jerusalem, Israel. It holds deep spiritual and emotional importance for Jews worldwide, and it has also become a symbol of the complex and often contentious nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

 

The Western Wall is a remnant of the ancient retaining wall that once surrounded the Second Temple, which was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE. After the temple's destruction, the Western Wall became the closest accessible site for Jewish prayer and pilgrimage. For centuries, Jews from around the world have come to this sacred site to pray, lament the destruction of the temple, and express their connection to Jewish heritage.

 

The name "Wailing Wall" originates from the 19th and early 20th centuries when Jews would gather at the site to mourn the destruction of the temple and express their sorrow through prayers and tears. The term "Kotel" means "wall" in Hebrew and has become a popular and endearing name for the site.

 

Over time, the Western Wall has evolved into a focal point of religious and nationalist tensions between Israelis and Palestinians. The site is located in the Old City of Jerusalem, which is also part of the contested area between Israel and Palestine. Its significance to both Jewish and Muslim communities has led to disputes and occasional clashes.

 

The Western Wall plaza is divided into two sections: one for men and the other for women, following Orthodox Jewish tradition. The prayers and rituals conducted here are a mix of individual devotion, communal worship, and celebrations during religious holidays.

 

In addition to its religious importance, the Western Wall draws millions of tourists and visitors from various backgrounds each year, offering them a glimpse into the rich history and cultural diversity of Jerusalem.

 

Despite the ongoing complexities surrounding the Western Wall and its geopolitical context, it remains an essential and cherished place for Jewish people, symbolizing resilience, faith, and the connection to their shared heritage.

We can express our feelings regarding the world around us either by poetic or by descriptive means. I prefer to express myself metaphorically. Let me stress: metaphorically, not symbolically. A symbol contains within itself a definite meaning, certain intellectual formula, while metaphor is an image. An image possessing the same distinguishing features as the world it represents. An image — as opposed to a symbol — is indefinite in meaning. One cannot speak of the infinite world by applying tools that are definite and finite. We can analyse the formula that constitutes a symbol, while metaphor is a being-within-itself, it's a monomial. It falls apart at any attempt of touching it.
