I am so pleased to be joined by the ruggedly handsome Mathyme Ethaniel and ridiculously sexy Yukira de Bourge for one of my naughtier pictures yet.
To be fair, I've had a lot of naughty thoughts...nay...a lot of naughty actions watching these two on Mat's feed. So it was only fair to take the inspiration they gave me and run with it.
Thank you both so much for your patience and assistance in bringing my little dirty fantasy to life!

"Cosa deve fare una persona che ha subito ferite profonde da altri esseri umani?" Questa è una domanda che fecero a, credo, un maestro buddista il quale rispose che il poveraccio dovrebbe tornare a vivere in mezzo alla natura e che tutti gli dovrebbero offrire un clima di benevolenza.
Io dal canto mio, invece, schifato dagli altri esseri umani e in particolar modo da quelli che mi hanno fregato, ho deciso di mandare tutti a cagare e di prendere un appartamentino con vista sul Ponte Vecchio, che ogni volta che lo guardo mi sento un pochino meglio e quelli che ho mandato a cagare, ogni volta che mi pensano a guardare il Ponte Vecchio, lo so che stanno un pochino peggio.
Chiamalo karma o come ti pare.
Non è che qui faccia chissà che vita, piano piano do il fondo ai risparmi e guadagni di una vita e non è detto che a un certo punto debba pure tornare a lavoricchiare, ma solo per prendermi lo stretto necessario, per mettere assieme pranzo e cena e pagare le bollette.
E soprattutto niente amici.
I'm so predictable
Fall every time, ain't it pitiful
And it's not enough
I tried to quit
But I'm giving up
"She said, "Boy, you need Jesus."
I said, "Get on your knees."
That's just how the dice rolls
When you play this game with me
I done seen some things
That might test your faith
But I can't be the only one
In here that's lost his way
I need a new religion
Girl, I have my reasons
Seems I have no self-control
The truth's I know I don't
So please forgive me." - Ro James ♫
But life improvement is not just a matter of discipline, self-control. It's a matter of expansion, the deliberate pursuit of happiness....
We ought to walk through the rooms of our lives a second time, not looking for the flaws, but for potential :-)

This person is one of my Muslim student who is praying on the occasion of Eid Mubarak.
With divine joy in my heart and a big smile on my face, I am sending you Eid-ul-Fitr wishes. May the Lord help us all be kind and virtuous. Eid Mubarak.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is a holy month of fasting and considered auspicious. It is celebrated as the month during which Prophet Muhammad received the initial revelations of what became the Quran, from God. Muslims fast from dawn to dusk each day during Ramadan to purify the soul and have empathy towards the less privileged. They offer prayers and encourage charity. Ramadan teaches self-control and self-reflection. Eid al-Fitr is celebrated marking the end of the month of Ramadan.
This Eid, let us plead for the well-being of our earth and lead with integrity.
She, she screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Black Scoters are usually seen in flocks, migrating in long lines or resting on the water. They dive for prey, mostly shellfish, in shallow water. Males begin courtship soon after settling into wintering areas. Their wings make whistling sounds and males frequent give whistled calls, which can be useful in locating these ducks.

“For many generations…they obeyed the laws and loved the divine to which they were akin…they reckoned that qualities of character were far more important than their present prosperity. So they bore the burden of their wealth and possessions lightly, and did not let their high standard of living intoxicate them or make them lose their self-control…
But when the divine element in them became weakened…and their human traits became predominant, they ceased to be able to carry their prosperity with moderation.”

Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just human
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Why am I so emotional?
No, it's not a good look, gain some self-control
And deep down I know this never works
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me

You’ll see White-crowned Sparrows low at the edges of brushy habitat, hopping on the ground or on branches usually below waist level. They’re also found in open ground (particularly on their breeding grounds) but typically with the safety of shrubs or trees nearby.

~happy christmas fence friday~
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing, This lack of self control I fear is never ending, Controlling, I can't seem, To find myself again, My walls are closing in, I've felt this way before
So insecure!!
Crawling in my skin, These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall, Confusing what is real!! ♥
In front of Rotterdam Central Station, on the Stationsplein, you will find this almost four meter high bronze statue of a young woman titled 'Moments Contained' (2023) by the British artist Thomas J Price. The Droom en Daad Foundation donated the artwork to the city of Rotterdam.
More info from the internet:
Thomas J Price (London, 1981) is known for his large bronze sculptures of contemporary figures he calls 'everymen' and 'everywomen'. He wants to dismantle the power structures that maintain traditional sculpture and consciously chooses to create imaginary characters.
His sculptures are created by combining classical sculpture and new digital technology. Despite their scale, the images appear modest and instantly recognizable, inviting us to reflect on how we collectively occupy the space.
'Moments Contained' is about the feeling of being dismissed as 'the other'. Price: “I've placed my work in public space before and I love that it makes people aware of the things that have surrounded us for centuries, thousands of years – often images of powerful men. The scale of the work is there to challenge our current conceptions of outdoor art, who is allowed to be seen? Who should be represented?"
At first glance, the woman appears stoic, but the knuckle marks in her trouser pockets reveal that she's not actually as casual as she appears.
Price: “For me, there is a sense of self-control or emotion and psychological tension that can be expressed at any moment. It stands for the emotions and the recognition of them, even if the other person is not like you."

From a distance Green Herons look all dark. In better light they are deep green on the back with a rich chestnut breast and neck. The wings are dark gray. Juveniles are browner, with pale streaking on the neck and spots on the wings.

I'M NOT A VAMPIRE
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODhMdujZeEY
im not a vampire but i feel like one
sometimes
i sleep all day,because i hate the
sunlight
my hands are always shaking
bodies always achin and the dark is when i feed
i can lure any woman that i want to in my bed with me
and whiskey seems to be my holy water
mothers better lock your doors and hide your daughters
im insane
i can feel it in my bones
coursing through my veins
when did i become so cold?
for goodness sakes,
where is my self control?
if home is where my heart is then my heart has lost all hope
im not a zombie
but i feel like one
today
self induced,comatose,chemical
daze
my head is always spinning from this dizzy blurry vision
and my stomach has had enough
i feel like a lady that is pregnant with a baby cause im always throwing up.
hi my name is ronnie im an addict (HI RONNIE!)
daddy should've never raised me on black sabbath
im insane
i can feel it in my bones
coursing through my veins
when did i become so cold?
for goodness sakes,
where is my self control?
if home is where my heart is then my heart has lost all hope
The dangers of drinking alone - no mates to take you home.
Excessive drinking can often results in a lack of self-control, leading to regrettable behaviours that undermine personal dignity.
The negative consequences of alcohol-related loss of dignity extend beyond the immediate moment, as such behaviour can damage relationships, reputations, and future opportunities.
This issue requires a comprehensive approach, including education, support services, and promoting responsible drinking habits amongst the young.

I lit a match in Vienna tonight
It caused a fire in New York
Where is my self-control?
You gotta learn to be thankful
For the things we have
Now bathe my idle soul in
Desire
Taken by force
Twist of fate
Well, what weighs more
Down on your plate
A ton of love?
A ton of hate?
We're waiting for
A chance of, chance of, chance of
Desire
I don't trust the government
I don't trust myself
What is a boy gonna do?

Rencontre avec un animal exceptionnel. Photo #1
Ce cerf de 18 cors irrégulier, est le plus bel animal que j’aie jamais rencontré en plus de 20 saisons d’observations. Toutes les photos présentées ont été réalisées en milieu ouvert, exaltant sa beauté sauvage. Sa ramure impressionnante dégage une puissance, une taille, une harmonie, lui conférant une majesté exceptionnelle.
Les photos obtenues sont le résultat de beaucoup de patience, d'une analyse précise des habitudes de l’animal et de la configuration de la place de brame, de la discrétion et du positionnement des affûts le plus judicieusement possible en fonction des conditions climatiques, de l’heure d’observation, de maîtrise de soi (lorsque l’animal sort du bois et se positionne à une vingtaine de mètres, il faut garder son sang-froid ce qui n’est pas si simple).
Il ne s’est montré qu’à la nuit tombante et à la pointe du jour, rendant encore plus difficile la quête d’images. Mes plus chaleureux remerciements à Vincent, mon ami photographe animalier, avec qui j’ai partagé cette expérience inoubliable.
Nous espérons pouvoir la revivre l’année prochaine s’il arrive à déjouer les intentions mortifères de quelques chasseurs. 🙏
Encounter with an exceptional animal. Photo #1
This 18-point irregular red stag, is the most beautiful animal I have ever encountered in more than 20 seasons of observations. All the photos presented were taken in an open environment, exalting its wild beauty. Its impressive antlers exude power, size and harmony, giving him exceptional majesty.
The photos obtained are the result of a lot of patience, a precise analysis of the animal's habits and roaring place configuration, discretion and positioning of the blinds as judiciously as possible depending on the climatic conditions, the time of observation, and self-control (when the animal comes out of the woods and positions itself about twenty meters away, you have to keep your cool, which is not so simple).
He only showed up at nightfall and at daybreak, making the search for images even more difficult. My warmer thanks to Vincent, my wildlife photographer friend, with whom I shared this unforgettable experience.
We hope to be able to relive it next year if he manages to thwart the hunters' deadly intentions. 🙏
Merci beaucoup pour votre visite, vos favoris et commentaires.
Ils sont toujours très appréciés.

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Pr 10:9.
... whether or not there is a chance that a substantial part of my inner life is dominated by 'blockheadedness'. I am using my cameras for a closer kind of self-interrogation and the result is that, wait for it, there is indeed a good chance that "blockheadedness" is present. Not only present, but that it is part of the border police roaming the boundaries of my identity and, if unchecked, telling me what to do. OK, who is doing the checking?
