in the eyes of a cat I read a dumb question: why did you come?.in the wasteland the only stone that has heated up during the day and on it sits a nice cat..I am often asked why I like cats? A cat is a symbol of freedom and independence. They rarely show aggression. They are our doctors. They are just very, very cute:)
We do not always see what is before our face -
sometimes we see what we hope to see,
or fear we will see.
Quote - Jonathan Lockwood Huie
The question is what do you see ;-))
Ian Van Dahl - Castles In The Sky (10 Element Deep Remix 2016) Have this tune on^^
Do you ever question your Life?
Do you ever wonder why?
Do you ever see in your dreams,
all the castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why, do we build castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why, all the castles way up high.
Please tell me why, do we build castles in the sky?
Oh tell me why, all the castles way up high.

---=== Meadowlark - What's It Like To Love Me ===---
I often wonder
What I'm like to be around
Am I too quiet, too intense or too loud?
Do I ask too many questions or sing too much?
And are you comfortable when our hands touch?
What's it like to love me?
Is it, is it easy?
I wanna know, I wanna know
What's it like to be on the other side of this feeling?
I wanna know, I wanna know
I often wonder
Will I repeat it all again?
Who will I fall for this time and will they stay my friend?
Will it go the distance?
Will I take their name?
Or will I love too much and mess it up again?
What's it like to love me?
Is it, is it easy?
I wanna know, I wanna know
What's it like to be on the other side of this feeling?
I wanna know, I wanna know
'Cause if I'm gonna do this again, oh I need a friend
To tell me when I'm losing myself, oh When I'm losing them
Oh if I'm gonna do this again, oh I need a friend
To tell me when I'm losing myself, oh When I'm losing them
What's it like to love me?
Is it, is it easy?
I wanna know, I wanna know
What's it like to be on the other side of this feeling?
I wanna know, I wanna know

The tree, or not the tree, that is the question ...
Ёлка или не ёлка, вот в чём вопрос.
Поздравляю со Старым Новым Годом!
do you see the cracks in the sky
the lies
their satanic ways
question is...
can you see - ?
will you rise ...
I will definitely never question this dude about that
The proof is right there
Hanging in the open for everybody to see
Some of us needs to show off
And some of us knows what we are, who we are - and don't need to show to the whole world that we have balls
I bet those who needs to tell the whole world that they have balls, don't really have them......
I'm cursing in the church now, yes
But it's only my belief
If you respect yourself and love yourself, then you have the balls to stand up for yourself too
Best balls ever
Poor bird, lol - he is a victim of my words
I have to put some extra goodies on my tray today
Phew 😬🤔
"The sea is always speaking to us. It never stops. The question is, are we listening?" - "The Little Mermaid," by Hans Christian Andersen
Are we listening? That’s a good question. Many people hear what others are saying, but they don’t process it because they are not listening.
If one were to take a moment and listen to all the things around us, would it change us? Would it change the way we think? Perhaps it would, and perhaps that is why many chose not to . . ..
(Tunisie) - Les îles Kerkennah ont longtemps été un petit paradis dont les habitants vivaient de la pêche et du tourisme. Mais depuis 2018 le paradis est devenu l’une des portes de l’enfer. Les migrants qui souhaitent gagner l’Italie, utilisent les ports du petit archipel tunisien pour rejoindre l’île de Lampedusa en Italie. Certains pêcheurs locaux se sont reconvertis en passeurs, activité lucrative dans un pays cruellement touché par le chômage.
D’autres, qui pour des questions morales, préfèrent continuer à gagner leur vie avec la pêche, remontent de nombreux cadavres dans leurs filets les lendemains de tempêtes.
La photo ci-dessus a été prise en 1996 dans le port de Kraten époque bénie où seuls les poissons se prenaient dans les filets.

The port of Kraten has become the gate of hell
(Tunisia) - The Kerkennah Islands have long been a small paradise whose inhabitants lived off fishing and tourism. But since 2018 paradise has become one of the gates of hell. Migrants wishing to reach Italy use the ports of the small Tunisian archipelago to reach the island of Lampedusa in Italy. Some local fishermen have become smugglers, a lucrative activity in a country severely affected by unemployment.
Others, who for moral reasons, prefer to continue to earn their living with fishing, bring up many corpses in their nets the day after storms.
The photo above was taken in 1996 in the port of Kraten, a blessed time when only the fish were caught in the nets.

Flores de Santa Gemita - Oct 2022 - Enhanced-6
Il posteggio in questione si raggiunge facilmente in quanto è accessibile attraverso una strada asfaltata panoramica, in alcuni tratti un po’ stretta, che conduce alla tomba di giganti di Is Concias e alla cascata di Sa Spendula de Axedu. Da questo punto è possibile spaziare lo sguardo verso una buona parte della costa sarda meridionale e dell’agglomerato urbano formato da Cagliari e dai centri del suo hinterland.
Nous sommes nos choix et alors !
Suis-je mort sans avoir vécu ma vie ?
Quelquefois, je me pose la question…
La seule chose que je sais vraiment.
C’est que même si nous sommes nos choix.
La vérité est bien plus complexe…
Même quand Sartre écrit cette phrase.
C’est vrai nos choix nous définissent.
Mais à certains moments de notre vie,
Avons-nous eu d’autres ressources ?
De faire, d’accepter un mauvais choix.
Je me méfie des donneurs de leçons…
Personne ne détient la vérité
C’est gens-là sont la farce de leur moi.
Juste une vison de leur nombril.
On n’a pas toujours le choix de nos vies !
A méditer pour le plus grand nombre.
Michaël Overberg

It always annoys me how when I have to go to work my body wants to sleep in for ages, but when I have a weekend I am wide awake at the crack of dawn, what is up with that? It happens to me all the time, I could have slept for hours this morning.... but over the weekend when I had the time to sleep freely my mind would not shut down and I was wide awake most of the night. Does this happen to you ? I must be getting old ( hush now all of you lol I know I am) but I used to sleep anytime and for so long it was disgusting lol now well, now I like sunrise shots cause I may as well get something from these early mornings lol So my goal this week is to go softly softly and have a good work, me, sleep and play ratio and not get into the work work work ratio.
Thank you for the comments on my normal questions, some really good points people made.. it is good to see we are all normal in our abnormality ;)
So have a good week and softly softly, today, tomorrow and yesterday : )Car

Photo furtive prise avec mon LG6. J'aime bien l'association des différents regards sur différents niveaux. Je l'ai postée uniquement pour cette raison car j'avais peu de marge de travail pour le post-traitement. C'est donc la coïncidence seule qui est mise en avant...
But here's a question. Why are these wet but the two in the previous posting were complexly dry even though they were part of the same group?

Not a regular bird for us, we only see them on irregular visits.
The cricket population has exploded in the mown paddocks and this bird was making the most of the smorgasboard offerings.
Getting close to it was out of the question as it was in the middle of large grassed paddock, and it was early afternoon sunlight.
If it could spot a cricket in the grass, a great clumping photographer waving a lens would have been easy to spot.
Nassau. Les oiseaux noirs n'attirent pas la sympathie des gens mais celui-là avec sa tronche préhistorique bat tous les records. Looks like he escaped from Jurassic park... a question of survival.
I wish I knew what these were, they appear vary alien like to me, because I am not here very often (ever). What is the purpose of all the thorns? Its a very odd looking plant.

Happy Wing Wednesday!

A white Christmas would be wonderful, of course. But we've only had one (across the board) six times in the last 120 years. So there's no point in getting upset about it.
If there's no snow, then at least some sunshine would be nice. Unfortunately, it's been gray and foggy for days (at least here where I am). So, sunshine is probably out of the question.
Luckily, there's still the sunshine in my heart, which I hope to tap into with this photo and activate when needed.
Happiness, and the feeling of happiness, isn't dependent on chance or external circumstances. It's a conscious decision that strongly depends on how I evaluate a situation, where I direct my attention, and, of course, on my general outlook on life.
With that in mind, on this penultimate Monday flower greeting of the year, I wish you a large dose of sunshine in your heart and thus a sunny and joyful week.
And this is regardless of the weather.
Eine weiße Weihnacht wäre natürlich richtig toll. Doch hatten wir diese (flächendeckend) gerade einmal 6 Mal in den letzten 120 Jahren. Es lohnt sich also nicht, sich darüber zu ärgern.
Wenn schon kein Schnee da ist, dann wäre doch wenigstens Sonnenschein schön. Leider sieht es (zumindest hier bei mir) seit Tagen grau und neblig aus. Das mit der Sonne wird dann wohl auch eher schwierig.
Zum Glück gibt es noch die Sonne im Herzen, die ich mit diesem Foto ansprechen und bei Bedarf aktivieren möchte.
Glück und auch das Glücksgefühl ist nicht von Zufällen und Rahmenbedingungen abhängig. Es ist eine bewusste Entscheidung die stark davon abhängt, wie ich eine Situation bewerte, wo ich meine Aufmerksamkeit hin lenke und natürlich wie meine generelle Einstellung zum Leben aussieht.
In diesem Sinne wünsche ich Euch am vorletzten montäglichen Blumengruß das Jahres eine große Portion Sonne im Herzen und damit eine sonnige und fröhliche Woche.
Und dies unabhängig von meteorologischen Rahmenbedingungen.

1927 Mercedes-Benz Model K Wins Best in Show at Greenwich Concours
By Jeff Peek / Hagerty.com
Michael and Joannie Rich were looking for just the right car, and in the end, the right car found them. It proved to be a match made in concours heaven. The Pennsylvania couple’s one-off 1927 Mercedes-Benz Model K was chosen Best in Show at Sunday’s 25th Greenwich Concours d’Elegance, which returned to Roger Sherman Baldwin Park after a two-year hiatus.
“It came to us sort of by chance,” Michael says. “I was approached by somebody in the car world who said they had a neat car that I might be interested in. What really interested me was its Fleetwood body. Obviously, there are many coach builders, but it was from a place that’s only a half-hour down the road from us … a place I’d visited. I mean, the factory is still there. There’s a just a tremendous amount of history out of the Fleetwood factory. That’s what really attracted me to it—plus it’s the only one in existence.”
The car’s original owner, William Sloan of Rochester, New York, saw legendary Hollywood actor Rudolph Valentino’s Fleetwood-bodied Isotta Fraschini Roadster at the 1926 New York Auto Salon and fell in love with it. Except he wanted it on a Mercedes-Benz chassis. The car had been repainted in the decades that followed—Michael described it as “a pretty car with an ugly paint job”—and the Riches wanted to restore it back to how it looked when it rolled out of the Fleetwood factory. They entrusted the job to Steve Babinsky and Automotive Restorations in Lebabon, New Jersey.
“It was fun doing the restoration because we could visit it from time to time. I remember when it was down to a frame,” Joannie says. “We discussed the colors, and when we finally found the original color, we looked at each and said, ‘It’s interesting … not one I would pick.’ We sort of toyed back and forth about what we were going to do, and we decided if we were going to do it, we’d do it as it was.”
That proved to be a great decision. The Greenwich Concours d’Elegance is only its fourth public showing.
“The car world has a belief system, and the belief system is that certain cars are just super important, deserving of celebration and recognition,” says McKeel Hagerty, CEO of Hagerty, which owns the event. “The Mercedes-Benz Model K selected as best in show represents that greatness—one that the judges recognized following significant deliberation.”
The short-wheelbase (130 inches) Model K is powered by a 6.2-liter, switchable supercharged (kompressor) six-cylinder engine. From the right side of the bonnet/hood emerged three metal exhaust pipes merging at the lower edge to a single exhaust. This detail later became a hallmark of Mercedes-Benz supercharged cars.
“It’s a special car,” Joannie says. “I get so much enjoyment out of watching people’s reaction to it. They have so many questions. It’s been a lot of fun.”
Michael thanked his father “for getting me into this mess.”
“It’s a hobby,” Joannie jokingly corrected him.
“A mess, a hobby, organized chaos … I just wish he was here to see this.”
Something tells us he would be smiling.

Well, Jasper pulled his mom over for speeding yesterday. I questioned him on the wisdom of that because she is the one that does most of the feeding and walking and playing and belly rubbing, and... He told me that all humans are held equal under the eyes of the law. She paid the 2 dog bones and was sent on her way, hopefully at a more lawful speed. 😉
A volte bastano pochi secondi ed una foto apparentemente da cestinare viene salvata dal primissimo raggio di Sole della giornata che decide di illuminare proprio il treno, mentre la nebbia che nascondeva ogni cosa alla vista si dissolve all'improvviso per rimanere solo quel tanto che basta ad impreziosire la scena.
