*Working Towards a Better World
Life is a journey, with problems to solve, lessons to learn, but most of all experiences to enjoy.

To embark on the journey towards your goals and dreams requires bravery. To remain on that path requires courage. The bridge that merges the two is commitment. - Dr. Steve Maraboli
The best journeys in life are those that answers questions you never thought to ask. -
Rick Ridgeway
Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. - Lao Tzu
Everyone is handed adversity in life. No one's journey is easy. It's how they handle it that makes people unique.
Kevin Conroy
The only journey is the one within. - Rainer Maria Rilke
Please bear with me, I will not get to all of your works right away but I am making my way slowly am having some computer problems that are slowing me down even more, sorry.
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️
Exploration is about discovery, uncertainty, and possibility. Laying out the pieces, searching for the perfect match, testing connections—just like in life’s journey. Every move is a new decision, a step into the unknown, a challenge to find what fits and where the story leads next.
This is a small Rubik’s Cube that fits on a key ring, which I used as my contribution for the Macro Mondays theme of puzzle.. I now have to work it out...HMM
Sometimes I am bowled over by a bird's abilitiy to find food in - to me at least - the most surprising places.
Here a carrion crow took off from a muddy bank beside a shallow lake; hovered for a second; dropped ankle deep into the water; and then surfaced pulling an enormous freshwater mussel from the mud.
"If the only tool you have is a hammer, it's tempting to treat every problem as if it is a nail."
The law of the instrument, (law of the hammer, Maslow's hammer, or golden hammer) is a cognitive bias that involves an over-reliance on a familiar tool. As Abraham Maslow said in 1966, "I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail."
Turn him to any cause of policy,
The Gordian Knot of it he will unloose,
Familiar as his garter
Shakespeare, Henry V, Act 1 Scene 1
The Gordian Knot is a legend of Phrygian Gordium associated with Alexander the Great. It is often used as a metaphor for an intractable problem (untying an impossibly tangled knot) solved easily by finding an approach to the problem that renders the perceived constraints of the problem moot ("cutting the Gordian knot").

Is it just me or is 50 Cent eyeing Riffy?? Must be Bling Theory in motion.
BLING THEORY:
Scientific theory based on the idea that all matter in the universe is interrelated and governed through a massive network of invisible bling.
If you listen to this music you will probably solve some theories yourself:
This is Christakis, my grandfather, the man from whom I inherit not just my name, but so much more.
Never could I have imagined how deeply his presence would shape my life. Just by being near him and observing.
As the years pass and I reflect, I find myself filled with endless gratitude for the privilege of calling him Grandad. To be able to draw so much inspiration from him is truly a blessing.
Over time, I have been fascinated and intriged by the way he carried himself, dealt with life, created, designed and, above all, problem solved creatively with such a finesee. But what stands out most, the legacy I carry with me, is his unwavering work ethic—his obsession with quality, precision, and the smallest detail.
His discerning eye became my own, his passion for precision and accuracy forever echoing through my world.
A few lines could never capture his essence, for the inspiration he has given me is boundless.
To some, he may have been just another man. But to me, he is a legend.
His entire life revolved around his craft—a man of stainless steel, with hands as steady and enduring as the metal he shaped.

We came back from our adventure to the coast a couple of day early. A tropical storm is potentially building in the gulf. For whatever reason, Hadley is bored and antsy, walking back and forth. An old fashioned method of occupying himself seems to be solving the problem.
I really cannot recall the last time I saw real cards in his hands but whatever works!
ODC: solving the problem
It has been more than 130 days since the beginning of the protest in Hong Kong. The pro-demoracy movement is not coming to the end yet since the government is not answering to the demands of people. This is like a difficult and unsolved chess game.
It is now the turn for the Hong Kong government to make a move.
Chess player is trying to decide on the move in a game.

About this photograph.
If you are wondering about the meaning of the title The Megaphone Back in Action, that is because this photo was taken within few minutes of file 2025002-0048 which showed this person, along with two others, attempting to get the megaphone working. They managed to get the problem with the megaphone sorted out, so they can start using it.
While attending the Trans Resistance Rally event at Bristol as an out-of-work freelance photographer, looking to freshen up and improve my skills, I was looking around for anything interesting going on.
As in the previous shot, I saw this person with the short black T-shirt carrying a megaphone, had been attempting to get the megaphone working, hence the other two came around to help out.
Now that it was working fine, this person started using it at the beginning of the protest. At that point in time, the gathering was still growing bigger and bigger.
It was shot in colour, I converted it into black and white while in Adobe Lightroom, and cropped it while in Adobe Photoshop.

About this photograph.
While attending the Trans Resistance Rally event at Bristol as an out-of-work freelance photographer, looking to freshen up and improve my skills, I was looking around for anything interesting going on.
I saw this person with the short black T-shirt carrying a megaphone, and started speaking, but soon found there were problems with the megaphone. While trying to get it working, the other two came over to help out.
I was trying to get a better angle, and hope to include the troublesome megaphone in the shot, but figured that the problem could be short lived, they could simply have sorted it out within a matter of seconds, so I didn’t want to risk missing the photos by moving around and looking for a better angle.
I simply started taking the photographs, while at same time attempting to move around for a better viewpoint. But as I figured, they didn’t take too long to try to get it working.
It was shot in colour, I converted it into black and white while in Adobe Lightroom, and cropped it while in Adobe Photoshop.

This is an image my wife took at the Roma Street Parklands, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. I thought it was rather cute as the Pacific Black Duck and her ducklings were trying to work out how to navigate this dangerous waterfall. Eventually the ducklings managed to overcome the obstacle and fell down the waterfall and survived the ordeal.

'Smooth-coated otters copy when young by Su_G' in cushions (mockup c/o Roostery)
'Smooth-coated otters copy when young, by Su_G': my entry in the Significant Otters Design Challenge.
Ink pen & watercolor on paper
© Su Schaefer 2018 with thanks to Dr. Nicole Duplaix whose picture I used as my reference, & researchers at U Exeter for the inspiration (see below).
The title refers to recent findings that otters – specifically, smooth-coated otters - learn by watching and copying each other. Scientists performed their usual tricks, creating puzzles baited with food, and the otters watched and copied each other's problem-solving techniques. Young otters were more likely to copy, and solved the puzzles more than six times faster than their parents. The scientists concluded that “smooth-coated otters adopt a 'copy when young' strategy”. Read more at: Otters learn by copying each other (University of Exeter).

"On the Inside”
“If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.”- Albert Einstein
So true. A problem well-defined is half solved. Sometimes the best course of action is starting at point “B”, not “A”…

Classic Problem: A farmer needs to cross a river, but his boat can only hold one other passenger or item. He can't leave the grain with the chicken for the chicken will eat the grain. He can't leave the fox with the chicken for the fox will eat the chicken.
How can he manage to get the fox, the chicken, and the sack of grain safely across the river?
