You shall be holy to me, for I the LORD am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.
So prepare your minds for action and exercise self-control. Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world. So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then. But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.” And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time here as “temporary residents.”
Leviticus 20:26 & 1 Peter 1:15-17
It is so hard to remember that this life is but a mere breath before the thousands of years of eternity and how dearly God wants to draw us to him, but it leads to so much joy! God wants to make me happy via him and not these things made by him. To enjoy the creator, and his creation but with a focus on Him
One of my favourite shot, taken with a reversed lens. Required a lot of patience, a bit of luck, and some self control to follow this little thing with that kind of technique
i can't believe i actually have a my melody?????
i wasn't supposed to buy any more dolls cause my phone is breaking and i need to buy a new one but i have no self control sooo.
After going for a root canal Friday and not being able to eat anything but pudding, oatmeal and other soft foods till Monday – I am craving gooey chocolate cupcakes – maybe with some caramel and nuts in them (ohh, turtle cupcakes) – WOW – drooling at the thought!
As you can tell – I am hungry and also a sugar addict so the thought of something like double chunk chocolate chip cookies – well, I would probably kill for them right about now!
Lis and I decided we would do this dippy in lieu of actually making and eating any of them – talk about self control – well, at least till I can chew again!!!

Here is a small control room, one of three inside an abandoned power plant I recently explored with Freaktography. This control was adjacent to one of the turbines & was in near total darkness which took some effort to get this shot! The second turbine also had an identical control & the main one overlooked the turbine hall.
The plant was built in the late 1940's when the during a time when the hunger for electricity was rapidly increasing. The original design consisted of two boilers providing steam to a single turbine unit. A few short years later two additional boilers were added to power a second turbine giving the plant a total output of 70MW. In the late 1980's there was talks of converting the plat from coal burning into garbage burning however with a 50 million dollar price tag, it didn't make it passed the planning stage. By 2000 area residents were complaining about the increasing emissions from the plant. The plant owners blamed the increased emissions on high levels of sulfur in the coal & a state inspector was sent out & determined that the emissions violated federal standards. Today the plant sits slowly decaying without a shred of hope of ever being powered back up again.
Exploring is the mission, not a competition!

During the fall season, Yosemite Valley turns into an overload of eye candy everywhere you look. The hard part is maintaining self-control and not filling up the censer card the first few minutes of your visit. This scene was bathed in slightly diffused late afternoon direct sunlight.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in Porbandar, India, on 1869-10-02 into a family connected to local administration, with a father who served as chief minister of a princely state. Shy and introspective as a youth, he married Kasturba Makhanji at a young age and later traveled to London to study law, qualifying as a barrister. After struggling to establish a career in India, he accepted legal work in South Africa, where he experienced direct racial discrimination that profoundly shaped his political awakening. In South Africa he organized Indian communities against racist legislation, led legal challenges, coordinated protests, and developed the method he later called satyagraha: organized, disciplined, collective resistance based on truth, civil disobedience, and refusal to cooperate with unjust authority. Returning permanently to India in 1915, Gandhi quickly became a central figure in the independence movement, transforming it from an elite political project into a mass struggle involving peasants, workers, women, and urban poor. He promoted boycotts of British goods, rejection of colonial courts and schools, spinning and wearing khadi as an act of economic resistance, and the building of local self-sufficiency. In 1930 he led the Salt March, walking hundreds of kilometers to the sea to openly violate British salt laws, exposing the absurdity and brutality of imperial control over basic necessities and igniting nationwide civil disobedience. Repeatedly imprisoned, he continued to coordinate non-cooperation campaigns and in 1942 launched the Quit India movement, demanding immediate British withdrawal. Politically, Gandhi insisted that independence had to include moral transformation, communal harmony, and protection of minorities. During the violent partition of India and Pakistan, he undertook hunger strikes and direct interventions to stop massacres and encourage reconciliation between Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. These positions angered both colonial authorities and Hindu nationalist extremists who wanted a religiously defined state. In his personal life, Gandhi adopted ascetic practices, lived simply, and remained married to Kasturba Gandhi, with whom he had four sons. In his later years he wrote about and permitted what he called “experiments in brahmacharya,” including sleeping naked beside young female relatives as tests of self-control; these practices are documented in his writings and discussed by biographers and are widely considered ethically unacceptable and deeply troubling, even by sympathetic scholars. On 1948-01-30, in New Delhi, while walking to a public prayer meeting, Gandhi was shot at close range by Nathuram Godse, a Hindu nationalist extremist who accused him of betraying Hindu interests and being too conciliatory toward Muslims and Pakistan. Gandhi died from his wounds shortly afterward. His assassination removed the most powerful symbol of nonviolent mass resistance of the twentieth century, but his methods of organized civil disobedience, economic boycott, and moral confrontation with power profoundly influenced global struggles for civil rights, decolonization, and social justice, leaving a legacy that remains politically potent and morally contested.
I publish these figures to remember who they were and why they died. To show younger generations that many of the injustices they fought against still exist. Because their story is not over, and their sacrifice still matters today.
Hardest job ever:
Working in a bubble wrap factory. Imagine the self control needed..

I have no self control when it comes to Star Wars. Never have, never will. Now let's make some more games, Disney! I'd rather those than the new canon that erased the EU.
According to Indian mythologists their findings from the 🌏
air_water_nature are interrelated with ••—••
Human mind_body and soul.
it's influence to focus more...
on these three mysteries because,
it tests our patience, also teaches an exclusive lesson between our emotions and will power,
only very few can enjoy it and become the masters of it ryt..
if you can learn self control you can master anything.....
and, nothing can defeat or destroy yOu.
try to edit your life frequently, it definitely be your masterpiece.
Our difficulties doesn't means impossible,
it simply means that you have to work hard.
once I learned a little about this.. I'm able to.., don't underestimate me...!!ok
I know more than I say,
think more-than I speak..
and,notice more than yOu_realize..!
try to walk on the right way of human life.
Everyone is my teacher, some I seek..
some I subconsciously attract,
often I learn simply by observing others.
Some may be completely unaware that I'm learning from them...
we can't please everyone at every time
Like someone said, if you don't have enemies you don't have a character..
never be a people pleaser
stay strong for what you believe but,
never lose your values..
On a personal level I suggest,
try to being both soft and strong..
always follow your heart but don't forget to take your brain with you.. ha ha yes,of course, there are people wearing double faces 🎭..so, be brave while dealing with everyone ..
don't expect everyone to understand your journey...
especially, if they've never had to walk your path.
remember, understanding is an art and,
not everyone is an artist.
when you do things from your soul,
other people really dig that.
still it beats you .. ha😘😳??? try reading upside down 😂😂😂😊🌿

“Crimes of passion are abrupt, unmeditated, and impulsive acts of violence ….committed by persons who, for the duration of the act, are insane and incapable of self-control.” I use to love gummy bears… till I got sick of them… this one is in honor of a long lost passion…and it was definitely a crime…RIP gummy bears!!! BTW…why am I incapable of taking a serious picture lately???

Handsome, and doesn't he know it?? Certainly not afraid to pose for the camera! We were practicing "paws up", a pretty self explanatory trick really, I taught it him ages ago and it is always useful when I'm taking photos! All I have to do is point at the tree/ fence/ chair or anything else we happen to come across and say "paws up" and Barney will stand like he is here, for me take photos.
I've said it before, but photography is good for him, he's learned a lot of self control and discipline over the past year, simply by holding still for photos. He has to stay very still too, because in low light my camera is awful, any movement and things are just a blur! Barney is like a living statue when I say "stop"! It also keeps our walks interesting, our photography sessions are basically just training sessions for him... and he loves to learn! Keeps him out of trouble too...

I must learn to love the fool in me the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries.
Theodore Isaac Rubin
You must understand something about people who are extremely good, educated, loving and affectionate... it is that this is our "other side". That it is the hell we had to survive that makes us kind and good people… Don’t confuse our self-control with weakness. Because the beast in us is asleep…not dead…

Well, I'm not a vampire
But I feel like one
Sometimes I sleep all day
Because I hate the sunlight
My hands are always shaking
Body's always aching
And the dark is when I feed
Well, 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
I'm insane
Well, 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!
5 Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. 6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

Lange Feat. Skye - Drifting Away

Everytime I lose my self control
It feels like I can't let you go
I'm at the point of no return
Don't ever wanna come back down
I'm up so high above the ground
This feeling I will always yearn
Drifting away
I'm flying, I'm gonna head for paradise
Nothing to say
I'm climbing, I wanna stay right here tonight
Drifting away (x2)
Now I've got you inside of me
I'll take the opportunity
To keep on going with the flow
Don't ever wanna come back down
I'm up so high above the ground
I hope this feeling never goes
Drifting away
I'm flying, I'm gonna head for paradise
Nothing to say
I'm climbing, I wanna stay right here tonight

''Fistfull of concrete
Pummel down upon the city
Broadcast the chaos outside
Let go my limitations
Let go my self control''
