A light of hope for new beginning

Forgive me my sins, O Lord; forgive me the sins of my youth and the sins of mine age, the sins of my soul and the sins of my body, my secret and my whispering sins, the sins I have done to please myself and the sins I have done to please others. Forgive those sins which I know, and the sins which I know not; forgive them, O Lord, forgive them all of Thy great goodness. Amen

Allah'ım

Ey bütün yerlerin, göklerin ve ikisi arasındakilerin Rabbi

Ey bütün sırdaşlarımdan daha sırdaş, bütün dostlarımdan daha dost

Ey bütün dertlerimin kendisine aşikar olduğu

Ey bütün sevinçlerimin kendisine ayan olduğu

Ey Sahibim

Beni bir an olsun nefsimle başbaşa bırakma...

Beni ve bütün sevdiklerimi hidayetinden ayırma..

Eğer takva adına bildiğimizden daha ilerisi varsa bize orayı göster ve oraya doğru yürümeyi nasib et...

Senden uzaklaşma korkumuzu daim kıl, sana yakınlaşma şevkimizi de öyle...

Bize rızan dahilinde bir ömür, ve temiz bir ölüm nasib et...

Bizi yolundan ayırma...

Amin.

Prayers For Myanmar 2023 Tribute by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)

 

မြန်မာနိုင်ငံအတွက် ဆုတောင်းများ

  

My prayers and tribute to all the victims and their families of the Military Coup in Myanmar that continues to claim innocent victims through barbaric attacks on a defenseless population!

 

A military junta's attack on the Pa Zi Gyi in northern Myanmar killed 186 villagers, of which 40 were under 18, according to the National Unity Government of Myanmar (NUG). CNN's Anna Coren spoke to surviving villagers recounting the horror they experienced.

It is time for the international community to unite to denounce the barbarism that the people of Myanmar have suffered since the coup d'état in Myanmar that began on the morning of 1 February 2021, when democratically elected members of the country's ruling party, the National League for Democracy (NLD), were deposed by the Tatmadaw—Myanmar's military—which then vested power in a military junta and power had been transferred to Commander-in-Chief of Defense Services Min Aung Hlaing.

 

The President of Myanmar Win Myint and State Counsellor of Myanmar San Suu Kyi were deposed and detained since then.

I shot it at the festival of CHHATH.

Chhath Puja is a very joyous and colorful festival. Chhath Puja is the holiest Hindu festival of people in northern India. Mostly the Chhath Puja is being observed in Bihar and Jharkhand(INDIA) and the festival comprises rituals for four days. The Chhath Puja begins a week after Diwali. The word Chat denotes the number six in Hindi. The Chhath Puja begins on the sixth day of the Kartik, a holy month as per Hindu calendar. Some people spell Chath Puja as Chat Puja, Chatt Puja, Chhath festival, etc

Chhath Puja is dedicated to worship the Sun God. The Chhath Puja is known as ‘SuryaShashti’. People observe Chhath Puja to thank the Sun for bestowing the bounties of life on earth, as also for fulfilling particular wishes. People believe that by observing the Chhath Puja they can fulfill their desires. The Chhath Puja has been observed since long time in India. On Chhath Puja day, all the people dress up in their best and new clothes are a must. Folk songs are sung both at home and on the riverbank. Millions of people take dip in the holy water of river Ganges, and other rivers.

This is the view from the bottom of Snoqualmie Falls taken from the boardwalk which is as close as Puget Sound Energy will allow you to get.

This place is sacred to the Snoqualmie People who used it as a burial site and believed that the mists created by the 268 foot drop brought prayers to the Creator and connect Heaven and Earth.

Today most of the water runs through a power plant except during the early thaw when the falls become a curtain and triple in width of what I got here.

I've been on overtime for the past week and into the foreseeable future which cuts into my Flickr time so I'm generally a day late, sorry, I will keep up just might be a little slow. :-)

Mothering Sunday

 

In the medieval church people would use the fourth Sunday of Lent, Mothering Sunday, to make their Easter Duties in their ‘Mother Church’

 

Their Mother church was the church they were baptised in, and was frequently the parish their parents still lived in. After Mass it would seem natural to return to the family home for a meal.

 

After Henry split with Rome in 1534 many of the Catholic traditions and usages were lost. Mothering Sunday lives on in parts of the English-speaking world as both Mothering Sunday and Mother’s Day.

 

Happy Mother's Day and Happy Mothering Sunday

prayer does change things

When nothing else matters

I just don't know what's got into me

It's just a prayer for the dying

For the dying

I can't take credit for the idea of this shot...I seen it somewhere (forgot where) but I LOVED the idea.

This week's FlickrFriday was tricolor, all I had to do was look up from my current spot to see what I wanted to do. A simple image this week, but I think it worked out ok.

 

This image was taken in RAW and processed on Linux using RawTherapy.

Prayer flags are Buddhist symbol that represents peace, compassion, strength and wisdom. Buddhists believe that the prayer flags when blown by the wind will spread good will and compassion in everyone's path.

The blue color represents sky. White as clouds. Yellow as land. Green as water and red as fire. These five colours represent the five elements that rule Mother Nature

I took this photo when I was about 12 or 13 years old. This was my brother, Shawn, when he was about 5. I told him to pose and he decided to pose as if he was praying. I don't think either of us had any idea how prophetic that photo would be.

 

My brother gave his life to Christ when he was just a little boy, about 9 years of age. I had come to the Lord about a year earlier, when I was 16. Since he was a child, Shawn has had a passion for the things of God, and definitely became a man of prayer, and eventually, did ministerial work. He has served as a pastor, and even had a radio show for a while, trying to reach out to the community in which we live.

 

Now, I am asking for prayers for my brother. Last night when I got home from work, he was waiting in the driveway, and asked me to bring him to the hospital. He was short of breath, gasping, and said he had had a coughing "fit" and coughed up blood. We rushed to the emergency room, and thanks to a dear friend who is a nurse, said the necessary things to get him in ahead of other people. She felt that he might have a pulmonary embolism, and told me he HAD to get in there right away or it could be fatal. So, she told me to threaten to call Morgan & Morgan, a local law firm that specializes in law suits! Sure enough, they took him in next, and since some people had been there for hours, that was pretty impressive!

 

We were there for hours, waiting for a bed to free up, and for tests to be run. His oxygen levels were low, and his blood pressure was incredibly high. I can't tell you how frightening it is to sit in a waiting room, helpless, while your kid brother is in a life-threatening situation. I couldn't help but feel that somehow this should have been me, since I was older. So many emotions flooded in, all the things we'd been through, and the petty squabbles that seemed ridiculous in the light of the situation. Finally, my middle nephew arrived and went back to see him, while I stayed in the lobby with about a dozen people, some who were crazy and having psychotic episodes, and others who were in pain but not complaining. It was like being in an episode of the Twilight Zone!

 

When my other nephew arrived, he went back, which meant I couldn't, so I received updates through texts. My nurse friend came to the ER and brought me a sandwich, because I hadn't eaten all day and it was 11:30 at night. I was so grateful for that sandwich!

 

I finally got to go back and see Shawn again. He was a little loopy from the meds, and was getting a headache from the nitro they'd given him. I learned his BP had been 203/ 123! His oxygen levels were up, and the xrays and tests were showing no clots in his lungs. They then suspected a heart attack. He had had no pain, though, so the other thought was that this was all because of elevated blood pressure. We won't know until morning what else they will do, and if he will have to have a heart catheterization. Thankfully, the BP is back down, and he is receiving blood thinner to keep him from clotting.

 

Needless to say, it's been stressful and harrowing, but Shawn has been in good spirits, making the jobs of the hospital staff a pleasure. They love him, and it's easy to see that he has such a heart for people. Now, people need to have a heart for him. I am requesting prayers and good thoughts for my brother so he will be out of danger and back home soon. It's hard for me to look at my 6' 3 1/2" brother now and see this little boy in the picture, but I still remember all the years that have gone by, and hope for many more to come. Please pray.

I took this photo long time ago about 2 years ago, I just was checking and correcting some of the photos and thought that its the nice one to share.

I took it at Asakusa,TOKYO

hopefully many many people find it and like and recommend to see.

Myanmar represents a complete departure from any destination I've ever photographed before. It is a cultural destination, and traveling around the country with two local photographers for nearly three weeks, we were fully immersed.
