Peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Just open up your heart, let the sun shine in
Let it shine down on you

Early Happy Caturday!
Cheetahs are caring, affectionate and dedicated mothers. They spend a long time caring for their cubs. Cubs typically stay with their mothers for one and a half to two years.
The cheetah originated over 4 million years ago. That’s long before any of the other big cats of today. They used to be found in North America when they crossed the Bering land bridge from Asia to the Americas before becoming extinct.
The cheetah is the fastest land animal in the world, reaching speeds of up to 113km/h. They can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 3 seconds. When running, cheetahs use their tail to steer, like a rudder for a boat.Cheetahs are the only large cat that can turn in mid-air while sprinting.
Cheetahs do not roar like lions, however they do have a range of other meaningful vocalisations such as purring, growling and a variety of contact calls which resemble bird-like chirping sounds. -Wikipedia

Our neighbor Big Max is always friendly, curious and gentle as a lamb. . .he is a crossbred Highland steer, his ancestors originally from Scotland. [we had to clean the lens after this photo]
While on RAGBRAI, the massive bicycle ride across Iowa, I had the opportunity to pose on Bufford, the largest steer in the midwest.
The motion is upwards / at least for some time / as seen from the inbuild spectator.

The steering wheels were rigid and mounted on non-collapsible steering columns. This arrangement increased the risk of impaling the driver in case of a severe crash. The first collapsible steering column was invented in 1934 but was never successfully marketed. By 1956, Ford came out with a safety steering wheel that was set high above the post with spokes that would flex, but the column was still rigid.

Old 1947 Pontiac Streamliner interior...I don't know what the year is. This was taken at the 28th Street Metro Cruise in Grand Rapids.
Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
I hope an orbital socket would be an interpretation of the theme.
Very old skull of a range steer. Out in the Mojave desert.
Longhorn steer, a familiar roadside sight in rural Texas. These cattle are impressive in stature and bearing, but are actually docile and relatively shy of strangers.
