Last Monday we got a phone call at 5.15am from my brother in law to say that my mother had had a heart attack and that her survival was 50/50. We immediately drove to Weston Super Mare hospital and spent all day there, along with my sister. She spent most of the day on the critical list. But by the afternoon she was chatting away through the ventilator which was helping her breathe and clearing the fluid which was on her lungs. By Wednesday she was sitting up in bed and although the ventilator has been removed she is still being fed oxygen through tubes in her nose. It is early days yet but so far so good.
I am not a religious person and neither is my mother, but Kaiser decided to say a prayer or two:-)
Happy Furry Friday everyone
Have a healthy weekend x
Prayer candles are lit to symbolize prayer intentions. For me lighting a candle creates the following sequence:
Light the candle - think of the person and say the prayer - leave and go about normal routine - stop once in a while to wonder if the candle is still lit - remember the reason for the candle - think of the person and say another prayer - go about normal routine - stop once in a while to wonder if the candle is still lit - continue on and on in the loop.
And yes, these candles are lit for those of you who asked for prayers.
For what are you lighting a candle? :-)

Paws pressed in prayer,
I chant your name to the wind,
you now rest in peace.
I sit before your stone, my paws pressed together the way I watched you pray to Buddha. The wind carries my soft chant, and I send your name into the sky so it will not be lost. I do not search for you anymore—I know you are resting. I keep watch, as I always did, trusting that you sleep in peace while my love remains here, warm and faithful, beside you.

As I was post-editing this photo, an inspiring conversation took place between me and my Inspirational beloved. We talked about every happy moment that we spent together and will spend together. We talked about our dreams, our plans and our wishes. It was so warm, intimate and soulful that this made me rethink the idea of falling stars, where people make a wish, each time they see one. I thought that wishes are like prayers, they must be bound to something that goes up and not comes down. They must ascend to the highest levels where the Heavens are. And all we have to do is to "wait". The concept of "rising" is always more appealing and more spiritual to me, than the one of "falling".

A special thanks to the one great love for inspiring me.

من مكان بعيد, وعبر أثير التقنية والاتصالات, كان بيني وبين حبيبتي وملهمتي حديث ذو شجون. تبادلنا الأشواق وتذاكرنا أوقاتنا السعيدة وذكرياتنا الجميلة وأحلامنا وأمانينا بما هو قادم. كنت أثناء ذلك أهم بمعالجة هذة الصورة لمسارات النجوم. وكان الحديث شاعريا و عاطفيا وملهما الى الحد الذي جعلني أفكر في ما يفعله أهل الحضارات الأخرى من ربط أمانيهم وأحلامهم بالشهب المتساقطة. السقوط فكرة سلبية ومحبطة, بينما الصعود يفرح النفس و له وقع أقوى معنويا. ولا شيئ يصعد الى السماء ويتحقق مثل الدعاء الذي نتقرب به الى الله سبحانه . تصعد أمانينا وأحلامنا الى من يستمع ويقدر على تحقيقها عز وجل "وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ"
.
شكرا لك من القلب ياربيع القلب, كنتي ولا زلتي ملهمتي ومصدر سعادتي

Not 100% sure what this is but it was taken at the Zenko-ji Temple in Nagano, so I figure it is prayers (as opposed to toilets this way).

After more than two weeks there 's no sign of the Malaysia Airlines jumbo jet MH370 . My heart goes out to the families of the passengers and crew of that plane. So very strange that a plane could just disappear into thin air just like that. I pray and hope its found soon ...
It is only in prayer that I can live such a life so that every word of God be fulfilled in me.

Prayer Flags. Uses primarily by Bhuddists and apart from being very beautiful they are somewhat complicated in they're understanding. Usuall hung outdoors they convey messages of hope, love prosperity and prayers of fortune and good luck. They can also be used for those who have passed on from the Earth. To those preoccupied with neatness and order, these may not be for you. The flags are left in the open to be reclaimed into nature and as they age and fray the prayers that are contained in the text are released into the world and when they are completely gone the prayers are now forever a part of the universe never to fade away again. They will often be seen flying against brand new flags and this is ok as the new flags represent change in lives and culture which has always been a part of the human life cycle.
The Summer Day
- by Mary Oliver
Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean--
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down--
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
With your one wild and precious life?

Are you climbing a peak or a pass in Nepal? Guess what is the easiest way to know you reached your destination... Prayer flags! They are in 5 colours - blue, green, white, yellow and red - symbolizing elements and they are put there to bless the surroundings.
Here we are on the Kongma La pass. And I saw these flags from afar. It didn't really help... In the background - you can see a few Nepalese hills...
Happy Sunday everyone!

...Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day, our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen...
...Vater unser im Himmel,
Geheiligt werde dein Name.
Dein Reich komme.
Dein Wille geschehe,
wie im Himmel so auf Erden.
Unser tägliches Brot gibt uns heute.
Und vergib uns unsere Schuld,
wie auch wir vergeben unsern Schuldigern.
Und führe uns nicht in Versuchung,
sondern erlöse uns von dem Bösen...
