Tracks vanishing in the mist have a strange symbolism. Like to never take a train to some other world as master Miyazaki had portayed. The train would be full of spooky strangers anyway. Only ghosts could travel to such a mist. And yet, the hope lingers. Or is it a fear of that actually happening one day? To fly away or to become a ghost, there is no difference...

Oh yeah, it's that stink bug again.... we were chatting for a while a few days ago... and no matter how small the little rascal was, it felt like it was constantly looking down on me.... well, not as a person then but as a human being... as a representative of the idiocy of evolution.. and/or the creator's bizarre humor... and once again it felt like we need to do more to care for our dear planet, our mother Gaia... and it feels like we're on the right track.. NOT!!
Think about how strangely unexpected encounters can make thoughts fly.... Show less
I always wonder why birds stay in the same place
When they can fly anywhere on the earth
Then I ask myself the same question

Driftwood Spirit and The Outlaw Rhythm.
Rock and roll was forged as a soundtrack for youthful rebellion, but its core philosophy has proven completely indifferent to the calendar. Age presents no boundary to the genre because rock is fundamentally defined by attitude, expression, and spirit rather than youth.
Chard Rock. Chard, Somerset, UK.
Grinders operate the winches which control the sheets (ropes) that keep the sails in shape for maximum power. The name comes from "coffee grinder", and having done this myself some years ago, believe me it is hard work when tacking into the wind against an opponent.
On the beach at Tidal River in the Wilson's Promontory National Park one is drawn to the knob-like rock formation on the horizon. These rocks were once a land bridge that linked Tasmania with the Australian mainland before the end of the last ice age.
Until the philosophy, I will like to divide it with those which want to learn...
Which hold one race
Superior and another, inferior
Is finally, and permanently
Discredited and abandonned
Everywhere is war
Me say war

The Tiger symbolism
More than just prized for its beauty and majesty, the tiger bears a greater symbolism in Chinese culture. In China, the tiger is considered the king of all beasts as it symbolises power and a great deal of nerve. It is also known as the king of the mountain.
In traditional Chinese culture, the tiger is also a symbol of luck. Considered to be an embodiment of “yang” – or positive – energy, the tiger is a ‘solar animal’ in Yin-and-Yang philosophy, and associated with the sun, summer and fire. They symbolise Power, Energy, Royalty, Protection, Generosity, Illumination, and Unpredictability.
This fearless creature is also revered as the symbol that wards off the main disasters of a household – ghosts, fire, and thieves. To this day, images of tigers and dragons are often paired on walls of temples. The head of the tiger used to be painted on soldiers’ shields in order to terrify the enemy. Tigers are also associated with the God of Wealth, who is often seen sitting on a tiger in Asian art.
In ancient Chinese myth, there are five tigers that hold the balance of cosmic forces and maintain harmony.
The five Asian tigers and their meanings are:
White Tiger – ruler of the Fall season and governor of the Metal elementals.
Black Tiger – ruler of the Winter season and governor of the Water elementals.
Blue Tiger – ruler of the Spring season and governor of the Earth elementals.
Red Tiger – ruler of the Summer season and governor of the Fire elementals.
Yellow Tiger – the supreme ruler of all these tigers and symbolic of the Sun.
Tigers figure largely in Chinese classical literature and performance art. They are also the main protagonists of many folk tales and proverbs. The tiger image in China is synonymous with success and achievement. The symbolism of the Tiger in Chinese culture is as diverse as the noble creature itself.

#1 Believe and it shall be yours.
#2 Where there is hope there can be faith. Where there is faith, miracles can occur.
#3 Hope is desperation. Faith is relaxation.
#4 May we grow beautiful as we grow wise.
#5 The one great thing about life is laughter
#6 How you climb up the mountain is just as important as how you get down the mountain. And, so it is with life, which for many of us becomes one big gigantic test followed by one big gigantic lesson. In the end, it all comes down to one word. grace. It's how you accept winning and losing, good luck and bad luck, the darkness and the light.
#7 One of the best tools for longevity and good health is not just taking a walk outdoors, but taking your walk while holding the hand of God. When we walk in gratitude for each and every moment, we empower ourselves by empowering our spirits. When we breathe in nature through our eyes, ears and lips, we become certain that not only are our souls eternal, but that God knows how to manage our lives, our troubles, our worries and our days better than we do. So today and everyday "let go and let God".
Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies is a 2014 book by the Swedish philosopher Nick Bostrom from the University of Oxford. It argues that if machine brains surpass human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could replace humans as the dominant lifeform on Earth. Sufficiently intelligent machines could improve their own capabilities faster than human computer scientists, and the outcome could be an existential catastrophe for humans.
When I took this photo, I wondered whether car and camera had ever met before since they were made, given that they're almost the same age. I know, this question is unlikely to be answered conclusively —and frankly, nobody really cares— but that's what makes street philosophy so appealing, isn't it?

# Immanuel Kant is one of the influential German philosophers of his time. He was born in the Prussian city of Königsberg, which is today's Kaliningrad located in present day Russia.
# He is known for his ideas in the fields of Epistemology, Ethics, Metaphysics and Logic.
# His 3 major works are : Critique of Pure Reason (German: Kritik der reinen Vernunft), in 1781 which was his Magnum Opus; Critique of Practical Reason (German: Kritik der praktischen Vernunft), in 1788 and Critique of Judgment (German: Kritik der Urteilskraft), in 1790.
# His philosophy on ethics (Kantian ethics) is considered central in Deontology. His major work, Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (German: Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten), in 1785, explained his philosophy on morality.
# He believed himself to be a compromise between the Empricists and Rationalists of his time and thought that human understanding of Metaphyics can be enhanced or bettered through our study of Epistemology, which is the study of the nature of human knowledge.
# Kant's ideas are studied as Kantianism, and include ideas such as the Categorical imperative, Transcendental Idealism, Deontological Morality, Synthetic A Priori, Noumenon, Schema, Sapere Aude, Nebular hypothesis.
# Though not regarded as a Political Theorist, Kant used his ideas to expound some political views like the classical republican theory which was explained in his work Science of Right.
# The Kingdom of Ends is another thought experiment of Kant which he explained in his work Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals. His is a hypothetical kingdom based on his idea of morality taking shape from the Deontologically moralistic idea of the Categorical Imperative.
