If you don't know the guy on the other side of the world, love him anyway because he's just like you. He has the same dreams, the same hopes and fears. It's one world, pal. We're all neighbors.

THANKS!
that bloom, shed and then simply go.
That's the wonders of life: One minute you're here and the Next minute you're gone!
This is where Mother Nature teaches us, how fragile we can become and yet still contain within ourselves, what we really are and should be.
Many thanks for your lovely appreciation of compliments from you here, my dear good flickr friends !!!

La pivoine chez les Grecs
Dans leur culture, la pivoine est bien plus qu’une jolie fleur des beaux jours, elle est d’abord considérée comme une plante médicinale. Cette faculté a par ailleurs nourri un mythe grec, où se mêlent colère des dieux et guérison. Son nom d’après les rumeurs, lui viendrait du médecin Péon, disciple d’Asclépios, dieu de la médecine. Ce dernier aurait trouvé un remède à la douleur des femmes durant leur accouchement. Son maître jaloux de son talent, se dit que finalement, il mériterait bien de mourir celui-ci. Fort heureusement pour Péon et pour nous, Zeus proposa une punition moins dramatique et changea le jeune médecin en la fleur qu’il avait découverte : une pivoine. Aussi réputée pour ses couleurs vives, ses teintes et nuances ont également inspiré une légende qui continue d’exister dans notre monde moderne, à travers l’expression : “rougir comme une pivoine”.
L’histoire parle ici de la nymphe Péone, qui comme la plupart des naïades était d’une incroyable beauté. Courtisée par tous les dieux, elle eut la mauvaise idée d’en faire un peu trop et d’enfreindre le code divin de la pudeur. Un faux pas, provoquant l’indignation des tout-puissants, qui décidèrent alors de la changer en une fleur extraordinaire : une pivoine. Quant à son erreur de jugement, pour l’inscrire à jamais dans l’histoire, ils donnèrent à ses pétales la couleur de la honte, le rouge. D’où l’expression…
La pivoine au pays du Soleil Levant
L’ Asie regorge de mythes et légendes, qui nous en apprennent un peu plus sur notre fleur préférée. La première, raconte en partie pourquoi le printemps est la saison favorite des pivoines. En Chine durant la dynastie Tang, un jour de grand froid d’hiver, l’impératrice Wu Zetian après avoir bu un peu trop de vin, exigea des fleurs de son jardin qu’elles fleurissent pendant la nuit, pour la satisfaire au petit matin. Le calendrier des fleurs était apparemment le cadet de ses soucis...
Son nom signifiant “celle qui discipline le ciel”, cette dernière était persuadée qu’aucune variété fleurie n'oserait lui désobéir. Le lendemain, seule la pivoine avait décidé de n’en faire qu’à sa tête et d’attendre le printemps. La reine de la saison apparaît alors pour la première fois, comme une fleur au caractère bien trempé. Folle de rage, l’impératrice exila toutes les pivoines du pays à Luoyang, où finalement, elles s’épanouirent fièrement, donnant lieu à un merveilleux spectacle fleuri. La ville est depuis la capitale de la pivoine, et organise chaque année un festival qui lui est dédié.

The peony among the Greeks
In their culture, the peony is much more than a pretty flower for sunny days, it is first and foremost considered a medicinal plant. This faculty also nourished a Greek myth, where anger of the gods and healing mingle. Its name, according to rumors, comes from the doctor Péon, disciple of Asclepius, god of medicine. The latter would have found a remedy for the pain of women during childbirth. His master, jealous of his talent, said to himself that in the end, he deserved to die this one. Fortunately for Peon and for us, Zeus proposed a less dramatic punishment and changed the young doctor into the flower he had discovered: a peony. Also famous for its bright colors, its shades and shades have also inspired a legend that continues to exist in our modern world, through the expression: “blush like a peony”.
The story here is about the nymph Péone, who like most naiads was incredibly beautiful. Courted by all the gods, she had the bad idea to do a little too much and break the divine code of modesty. A false step, provoking the indignation of the all-powerful, who then decided to change it into an extraordinary flower: a peony. As for its error of judgment, to inscribe it forever in history, they gave its petals the color of shame, red. Hence the term...
Peony in the Land of the Rising Sun
Asia is full of myths and legends, which teach us a little more about our favorite flower. The first, partly tells why spring is the favorite season for peonies. In China during the Tang Dynasty, on a very cold winter day, Empress Wu Zetian after drinking a little too much wine, demanded flowers from her garden to bloom during the night, to satisfy her in the early morning. . The flower calendar was apparently the least of his worries...
Her name meaning "she who disciplines the sky", the latter was convinced that no flowering variety would dare to disobey her. The next day, only the peony had decided to do as it pleased and to wait for spring. The queen of the season then appears for the first time, like a flower with a strong character. Mad with rage, the Empress exiled all the peonies in the country to Luoyang, where they finally blossomed proudly, giving rise to a marvelous flowery spectacle. The city has since been the capital of the peony, and organizes a festival dedicated to it every year.
I bambini imparano più da come ti comporti che da cosa gli insegni. (William Edward Burghardt Du Bois)
Children learn more from how you behave than what you teach them. (William Edward Burghardt Du Bois)
Teach Your Children
You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
And you, of tender years
You can't know the fears that your elders grew by
And so, please, help them with your youth
'Cause they seek the truth before they can die
Teach your children well
Their father's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you

A young friend of mine has a burgeoning interest in photography. She is taking a photography course, and asked me to accompany her on a photo shoot so that she could practice some of her classroom learnings, and I happily agreed, emphasizing that I am only an amateur photographer.
Traveling into a mountain environment, I pulled the car to the side of the road at the place pictured in this photograph, and asked her to contemplate what she saw before her in the context of photography composition. We ended up spending a lot of time at this site, exploring various composition principles and attempting to exercise them. As evidenced by this image, did we achieve at least some our goals? What do you see?
"He would say, 'Keep Teaching.' Teach the wonder of humanity. Teach the unity of mankind. Teach in your heart what you know to be true, if not to those who are warped beyond hearing it, then to the young and open-minded.
Because the only real hope in this new and terrible war lies in one word: education. Theirs and ours."

I'm a train wreck in the morning
I'm a bitch in the afternoon
Every now and then without warning
I can be really mean towards you
I'm a puzzle yes in deed
Ever complex in every way
And all the pieces aren't even in the box
And yet, you see the picture clear as day.
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
And that's why I love you
I neglect you when I'm working
When I need attention I tend to nag
I'm a host of imperfection
And you see past all that
I'm a peasant by some standards
But in your eyes I'm a queen
You see potential in all my flaws
and that's exactly what I need.
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
and that's why I love you

The alarm chimes in at 3:00 am at our Dzongri campsite. I slowly slither out of the tight strait jacketed sleeping bag, yes like a snake shedding its skin & wonder who else wakes up at this unearthly hour. My tent-mate Sanjay Hosali is still asleep but his aircraft idling on the runway like snores makes me jump outta the tent in a flash. Complete darkness surrounds me. I realize it is our Hindu New year & I whisper Happy New year to my family a good 1200 kilometers away. The Mercury reads a few notches below freezing and I pull my four layers of clothing closer to the skin. The sky has cleared up all the fog & mist of the earlier evening & the hike to the Dzongri Top to have our first eyeful of the grand Mount Kanchenjunga looks promising.
Our group assembles in half an hour & we start the early morning grind up to the Dzongri Top. The long line of headlight-bearing zombies silently walk in a single file up the mountain. No one is talking or singing like the previous noon hike. It is too freaking cold & spooky. I stop periodically, get my racing pulse rate down, inhale & exhale ten times & continue to climb up the mountain. The younger lot slowly overtakes me one by one. In spite of the Type A Personality that I am otherwise, here on the mountain I do not get annoyed at them outdistancing me. The mountain teaches you to be patient! It does! :D
The double hill climb is a long drawn one & needs some careful steps as there is a deep fall on the left. The dawn slowly glows from the eastern banks of the Himalaya. It is almost an hour & a half or maybe more. I hear the squeals of joy as our group has summited the Dzongri Top. I stop for the last time, look at the light around, wipe the frozen sweat, or maybe the nose dribble off my lips & pump up that last bit of Adrenaline & Testosterone through my engorged veins & speed up.
13,630 feet. Dzongri Top at last. The mighty Kanchenjunga & his family of massifs break into applause. I take a bow in front of these majestic mountains as I quickly set my tripod.
Lots of photographs quickly get registered on the memory card but the one that will stay with me for a long time is this photo of two trekkers returning back from the frosty top, somehow symbolizing the ups & downs of life.
Cats teach us two great lessons: detachment from things is an art and elegance makes no noise. The cat is so different, so flexible, so unpredictable, it cannot resign itself, like all other animals, to being only itself. Sometimes it's a cat, sometimes it's a panther, sometimes it's a ball of yarn, sometimes it's a meditating sage.
"Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach the next generation the value of freedom."
These are the words from Wreaths Across America's (WAA) website noted as "Our Mission". And, it is clearly observed in their commitment to the soldiers buried across the country in the many "national cemetery's" with the wreaths placed against the headstones. However, this is just one of the many ways that WAA remembers, honors, and teaches the next generation about our fallen. Please check out their website for more information about the many ways they accomplish this goal...
Additionally, the location of the photograph above is the Nashville National Cemetery in Madison, Tennessee (just north of Downtown Nashville) which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). More information about this "national cemetery" can be found here:

I posted a photo a while back of this bird fishing. I think I mentioned that I had a photo of the bird actually baiting the small fish and minnows by putting its beak on the surface of the water and moving it. It causes light ripples in the water that attract the little fish and minnows to the surface where the egret can then catch them. I noticed it eats well.
