Sometimes you just have to stop and look at the beauty around you. Off in the distance is my daughter, on the beach at Point Pelee National Park. This dawn sky was so amazing, that time just seemed to stand still for one to take in this sight.
Taken @ Turtle Cove .
Time stands still,
So does my love for you
We drift further away
But our feelings remain true

“Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.”
— Albert Schweitzer —
“Ah, kindness. What a simple way to tell another struggling soul that there is love to be found in the world.”
— A. A. Malee —
“Kindness is more than deeds. It is an attitude, an expression, a look, a touch. It is anything that lifts another person.”
— Plato —

"In my dream, children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue and fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see
Is a world full of people in need
Tell me why does it have to be like this?
Tell me why is there something I have missed?
Tell me why 'cos I don't understand
Everyday I ask myself
What will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am?
Is that what my life is for
To waste in a world full of war?"
Of all Spain's tens of thousands of historical monuments, the Alhambra stands supreme. The final manifestation of the doomed Moorish civilization in the peninsula, its history also mirrors that the of Spain in the succeeding six centuries. Taken by Fernando and Isabel in a surge that culminated in Catholic Spain ruling vast tracts of Europe and New World, it, like the country, eventually fell into dereliction and then use as a barracks in the war-torn 19th century.
Rediscovered by Romantic travelers, it is now one of Europe's most-visited destinations!
The defensible hills were the principal reason why the Zirid rulers moved their town from nearby Elvira to Granada in the early 11th century. A natural fortress, the Sabika hill on which the Alhambra stands had previously been used by the Romans and Visigoths, but only a few remnants have been found from those eras. The Zirids fortified the hill, although their main palace was on the facing Albayzín. The Alhambra as we see it today was principally a construction of the later Nasrid dynasty, who rose to power in the 1230s and established the hill as their seat of power. The Nasrids ruled Granada until 1492 and are responsible for the most of the many buildings that form the Alhambra complex. Of these, their royal palace complex is what inspires visitors with the most awe. After Boabdil surrendered the city and fortress to the Catholic Monarchs, many modifications were made to the existing structures, and several new edifices were thrown up, not least of which is the bulky Renaissance Palacio de Carlos V. The name Alhambra is from Arabic al-qalat al-hambra, meaning the red fort, perhaps from the colour of the sandstone, especially in the setting sun.

I've weathered all these storms,
But I just turn them into wind, so I can fly,
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
When I take my last breath,
That's when I'll give you up,
I will stand back up,
You'll know just the moment when I've have enough,
Sometimes I'm afraid, and I don't feel that tough,
But I'll stand back up, ❤️
Checking out The Barre Cross on our way to more blueberries. You can't see much of the structure while in it (without a drone, anyway), but you can see it on Google Earth.
I hope all are having a great weekend.
...stand der Altfuchs plötzlich vor mir.
Meine Tarnkleidung hielt noch stand, erst als er zwei Meter vor mir stand traute er der Sache nicht mehr und drehte um.
I used the He's Mine pose (rare) by Gravity Poses - from the Herselfie gacha collection (phones included) available at the 4 Seasons event from 8th Jan.
(Leo mod'd his head just a little bit). Thanks for posing with me Leo :)
I got soaking wet, but it was all worth it !
Unfortunately, the rainbow is getting a bit lost :(.
but imagine trying to farm there and putting the livestock in those barns.
The beach huts at Dawlish stand in defiance against the elements. Sometimes washed away or even arson . They always seem to prevail .
Taken for the Smile on Saturday theme of profile portrait. It is very unusual to see two robins together. Not sure if maybe one is a female - any thoughts please!
This is a Stand Up to Cancer pin badge that I have had for many years. I usually have it pinned to my purse.
For this week's theme I have placed it on the 1 inch (1.54cm) neck of a coloured bottle.
HMM!

This intriguing sculpture pattern was the part of a famous Grizedale Forest Sculpture trail and was designed by Donald Urquhart in 1998. The square on the ground was made of tiny chips of Dolomite marble which were held in place by a wooden framework. From a distance, it appears like tree shadows casted by an imaginary light source on a snowy white ground. One would imagine that this installation does require routine maintenance every year due to pine needles falling from conifers above, kids playing on and with stones, etc. We were lucky to see it in a very good condition at the time of the visit.

Across my road there is a small stand of pines that, when it’s windy, creates a whistling sound that’s almost eerie. I love it. Happy Slider Sunday!

A quick iPhone snap before he flew away, and then fun in Photoshop to get this to be more painterly.

What do I stand for? Am I left am I right?
Am I up and down? Am I east am I west?
Do I wear the crown? Is my creed worth dying for?
What do I live for? Can you tell on my face,
What my heart beats for? Do the words that I speak,
Show it to the core? Does my glow outshine the stars?
Can you see my coat of arms?

Sorry for the repost! This photo fell into the Flickr Bermuda Triangle!
On a tiny island in a lake just outside of Bucharest stands Snagov Monastery which local tradition states is the burial place of Vlad the Impaler, the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
