Iguana on Iguana Island, Cuba, making clear that this is his territory.

da oggi nel pratico blister, domani forse con vitamina C e poi ti parcheggio la macchina e ti faccio anche la spesa

 

Too bad there's not such an easy way out...

 

yay! I guess it got explored..not sure though.. :) #168

Hello! Where are you from?

 

Thank you for putting this little one on EXPLORE. I am sure it will help her to find more selfconfidence. LOL

Guess the best Armor we kan have in the "Ozean of publik Fame" is a natural Inkognito, especially if we try to effekt Something more important than just koddle our Vanity...

(No Altruism here! In Fakt I do enjoy strong, independent Personalities with a healthy Self-konfidence, even Pride - if they have Reason! Yet I laugh about the "Stars & Starlets" - or more korrekt: Attention-Addikts - of todays World: how Less is needed to kount as a famous Person...;) Seems the easiest Thing in the World to get your Face in TV, the Name in the Papers and your Life into the Publik - but is this desirable? Is a Deed more worth with plenty of Viewers? or is a Work more valuable with a huge Audience knowing it?

Does a Stone, thrown in a lonely Lake, make no Rings to the Water?

 

The Poverty of our Time - the so kalled Age of "Individualism & personal Freedom" - is:

all want to be different, but no one aktual is! They feel like having the Freedom of Choice, kause they kan vote demokratikally for the Party they like - but they overlook the Fakt that there are only (up to) 5 Parties offered at all! Or the young Generation and their "Self-aktualization" throughout Klothes and Brands they buy to show that they belong to this or that Group: they selekt on their own, yet always from the same "10 affiliated Groups of Kompanies" (Brands & Labels)... where is the individual Decision in that?

 

And finally, if there really is a rare Akt of an Individual (Personality), the typikal Behaviour of the Publik (Mainstream) is either to adopt the "new Thing" konverting the real Expression of Individualism into a market-suitable Trend/ Produkt... or they antagonize the Single-phenomenon as natural Enemy to their Groupformation, Lobby, Party etc. ... punish the brave Maverick with Denial, kause they are afraid of any Alterity...

After this Kontemplation I always wonder about the Rumour of the "Will for Freedom" you kan find in all Parts of History, in every Realm: maybe it is just another Konstrukt to sedate us, to simply have an Antagonist or an unachievable Ideal, therewith we kan enjoy the Ease of the Herd free from Kares? or is there really a Will for Independents in some of us? - I´m undecided about that, but in this "Age of Aktors" it seems more interesting & alluring to preserve the own Inkognito - and not get famous! (more challenging as it sounds, since Fame is a mighty Seducer, waiting for you around evey Korner of this modern World... ;)

Konundrum #1154: "The Worth of an Inkognito"

“When you’re comfortable and content with who you are, the voices of others who try and define, control or direct you are not important.”

" La autoconfianza genera libertad de ser.

A la autoconfianza la acompaña la humildad y la simplicidad en la vida; autoconfianza sin aferramiento ni dependencia ;entonces el amor fluye.

Se tiene luz, amor y refugio cuando uno confia en si mismo, cuando no busca apoyo fuera y no rechaza nada del interior para ayudarlo en un momento dificil.

El refugio esta principalmente dentro de nosotros ; nos acompaña a donde vayamos.No es necesario construir una capilla.

Debemos entender que el refugio real esta dentro nuestro,es la autoconfianza.

 

Se tu propio refugio, se luz para ti mismo, que tu refugio sea la verdad.

¿quien otro podria brindar refugio?

Cultivarse bien significa vivir a traves de uno mismo, a traves del mundo, a traves de las experiencias, en todos los niveles de la persona : el fisico, el mental y el espiritual.

No hay que cerrarse,sino experimentar las cosa para entenderlas y aprender a vivir con ellas en armonia y paz.

Somos libres para ser.

No solo nos liberamos del resentimiento, la envidia, los celos o cualquier otro estado negativo, sino que somos libres para ser.

Cuando uno puede permitirse ser a si mismo, tambien puede permitirselo a los otros"

 

Dhiravamsa "el modo dinamico de la meditacion"

 

"You will end up where you are meant to be"

 

It's a fantastic phrase that I've found in the Passion Planner I bought one year ago.. Sometimes we struggle because we don't know where we are going or because we are not sure of our choices..

But actually, if each day we stop for a second and we ask ourselves "are you happy, satisfied and proud of what are you doing?" instantly our mind comes to an answer.

 

It's not hard to ear it, it's hard to accept it.

So do your best, do what you want and you truly will end up where you are meant to be!

My life.

 

Karate is a way of life which teaches self-confidence, health, and physical strength. Every effort in karate teaches you … commitment … for any task in life. You build karate and life at the same time. You grow spiritually and physically at once. Individual change comes through self-study. Then you find your own special techniques — and you find yourself. The final goal of training is to act against any opponent with maximum efficiency.

1-2 out of every 100 students reach Black Belt and of those only 1 out of every 1,000 achieves his 2nd Dan.

So yeah, nothing really interesting happened today. Oh wait, yes! Something DID happen haha. But that's after.

So, I went to karate today and it was the promotional for the lower ranks. It was the same as any other promotional. But at the end of every year, they count up everyone's classes and see who has the most. Teaching classes do not count. I got the highest with 138 =) But with all the teaching, it's about... 155 or so maybe. I only started going everyday over the summer way before my Nidan promotional, but I've been going every since because I've realized how much I love and need karate.

So yeah, my karate instructor congratulated me and thanked me for everything I've done for him. I would do anything for him on a dime. Or a penny =)

OKAY! So for the interesting part. Well, it's nothing exciting, but it was the highlight of my day. So, after school I decided to go and talk about my midterm with my History teacher. I'll call him... Mr. Man. That works. Anyway - So we talked about my midterm for about a half an hour, and I only lost points on the multiple choice and essays. I missed two multiple choice questions, and got threes instead of fours on the essays. When he read my DBQ he figured it to be a four, so he's taking it to his supervisor to revise it and give me a four, which will bump my midterm into the 90's =) My average is still a 96, so I'm still happy hah.

And then after that we just started talking about colleges because I told him I wanted to get into teaching history. We talked about college and grad school and things like that.

After the student that needed to talk to him left, we just kinda kept talking until 4.30 about random things. We talked about college, family, life, weapons, movies, people, history, photography, etc. It was nice, haha. We laughed and joked around. I like him. Mr. Man is a cool guy. So it was like, 2 SOLID hours of just... talking =)

Anyway, that was my day. I dunno a song that would go with this...

 

"Are you still lost tonight?

Living but dead inside

This is the proclamation

This is the call to rise

Are you abused alone?

Walking with broken bones

If you feel you’ve been forgotten

Let this song guide you home

 

We are the disillusioned

We’ve been left wanting more

Before every aspiration

Hits the floor

 

Hold on for your life

All we feel is so far from alive

The damned are done believing

And the cursed can dream no more

So hold on for your life

Because only the strong survive

 

They tell you what you should be

They sell you the plastic dreams

Opinions are all provided

But nothing is what it seems

 

I dare you take control

Cause empty are hands

And bruised are the souls

Of those who show no resistance

Of those who are weak below

 

We are the disenchanted

Who die with each passing day

No one here understands us

So I say

 

Hold on for your life

All we feel is so far from alive

The damned are done believing

And the cursed can dream no more

So hold on for your life

Because only the strong survive

 

How will it feel?

To live your life Until your dying day

Where nothing is real

As we sacrifice

Bending until we break

It’s been revealed

Hold on for your life

Dreams are not theirs to take

Dreams are not theirs to take

 

Hold on for your life

All we feel is so far from alive

The damned are done believing

And the cursed can dream no more

So hold on for your life

Because only the strong survive"

("White Knuckles" by Alter Bridge) I know I usually only post part of songs, but I like the whole song haha. =)

Creative self portrait

She stands at the shoreline with open arms, meeting the wind, the sea and the last warmth of the day.

 

What makes this portrait so compelling is not simply her generous figure, but the ease with which she inhabits it. The soft fullness of her body, the calm confidence of her posture and the warmth in her expression come together in a moment that feels both sensual and deeply human.

 

Golden light traces every natural contour, while the ocean behind her adds movement and breath. Nothing here is hidden, apologised for or over-polished. She is present, grounded and radiant — a celebration of mature femininity, physical abundance and self-acceptance.

La modelo nos muestra su seguridad en si misma y su aplomo en el posado, expresión de firmeza con la camisa abierta y desabrochada que sólo le cubre un brazo mientras muestra con serenidad sus senos ante el pintor. Pintura con acuarelas sobre papel del artista pintor Ernest Descals pintando las distintas expresiones y el variado caracter de las mujeres en obras en las que asoma el erotismo femenino.

so arrogant

your worst is the best

it's so easy

to make a fucked-up mistake

and walk away

just like it was

or move away

miles between us

 

if i ever forget

it was never so perfect

such a boring story told

you make me feel so old

but confident

 

so arrogant

your worst is the best

it's so easy

to make a fucked-up mistake

and walk away

just like it was

or move away

miles between us

 

Your worst is the best, I love you but I've chosen Darkness

 

My worst is the best.

  

i did this after watching How To Look Good Naked. it gave me a bit of a selfconfidence boost and i decided to concentrate on photographing something i like about myself.

selfesteem.dove.co.za/Articles/Video/Sticks_and_Stones_sh... | The old saying ‘sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me’ really doesn’t ring true for most people, especially for pre-teen and teenage girls. Unfortunately, growing up, we are often completely oblivious when it comes to the impact that our words have on others’ self-confidence and self-esteem. Watch this video to see how your words can affect your friends, and how to change the way in which you verbalise your thoughts and feelings in order to help your friends feel confident rather than embarrassed or uncomfortable.

Artist Marco Cochrane created the statue "Bliss Dance" in 2010. He displayed the statue at Burning Man that year. "Bliss Dance" is now the centerpiece of The Park on the Las Vegas Strip. The statue is 40 feet tall, made of stainless steel, and weighs 7,500 pounds. "Bliss Dance" is meant to symbolize female strength, self-confidence and expression. Deja Solis was the model for the statue.

selfesteem.dove.co.za/Articles/Video/The_Mum_Translator_h... | This video has been created as a tool for strengthening mother-daughter relationships, providing teenage girls with some insight into why mum sometimes says the things she does. For instance, when she says ‘You’re not going out dressed like that, are you?’, she isn’t trying to make you feel bad about yourself or damage your self-confidence. In reality, she is saying ‘You look so grown up, and that worries me sometimes’. Be sure to watch the video to discover translations to even more common ‘mum phrases’.

I Hope I can reach all of my dream. Start here, in My boarding school.

I know fashion models love to strut their stuff with that exaggerated hip-swinging way of walking but, believe me, I've never seen a super-swing such as hers.

In Al Fifa area, near the yemeni border, all the men wear the local dagger, called Jambia (or jambyia) like in Yemen.

This is just for decoration, not for fighting. The nicest ones have silver, and are made with rhinoceros horn. It's one of the reason why this animal has neary disapeared in the last century...

Possibly I caught in this series one of the first attempts to fly of this juvenile jay. Later on on the same day it tried to fly from exactly the same branch, seemingly with growing selfconfidence. Please have a look at all six shots of this series. (In the photostream the order is in reverse, in the album is the right chronology.

cologne - 27.11.2013

 

Today there was parents evening in Antony's school. We talked with different teachers about the situation in the class and we got some very useful hints for the future. Nevertheless, beside the lectureship school is also a kind of punishment and gratification institution which is very disputable. Everything is aligned to boost the self-confidence not the feeling of self-worth of a human being... but this is only my humble opinion and nothing more. Thanks folks for following my s**t on flickr.
