an exchange between you and the landscape, in which - however unlikely this may seem - there is a dialogue between the two of you. It is simply courtesy to allow the landscape to speak :-)

" The whole world's broke and it ain't worth fixing
It's time to start all over, make a new beginning
There's too much pain, too much suffering
Let's resolve to start all over make a new beginning
Now don't get me wrong I love life and living
But when you wake up and look around at everything that's going down
All wrong
You see we need to change it now, this world with too few happy endings
We can resolve to start all over make a new beginning
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
The world is broken into fragments and pieces
That once were joined together in a unified whole
But now too many stand alone There's too much separation
We can resolve to come together in the new beginning
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
We can break the cycle - We can break the chain
We can start all over - In the new beginning
We can learn, we can teach
We can share the myths the dream the prayer
The notion that we can do better
Change our lives and paths
Create a new world
And Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
Start all over
The whole world's broke and it ain't worth fixing
It's time to start all over, make a new beginning
There's too much fighting, too little understanding
It's time to stop and start all over
Make a new beginning ... "

"In botany, a bract is a modified or specialized leaf. Some bracts are brightly colored and attracting pollinators.Before understanding what a bract is, it is helpful to understand what it is not.
First, it is not a part of the 'flower' by definition.Complete flowers are composed of four parts: sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils. A bract is none of these. Some bracts are brightly colored and serve the function of attracting pollinators."
I thought these pincushions looked rather pretty in black and white. They are white anyway. Thank you to all my Flickr friends for your continued support!!
Understanding is the reflection of creating.

L'Ordre des Odonates regroupe les Libellules et les Agrions ou Demoiselles.
Ce sont tous des insectes de taille moyenne ou grande. La plus grande libellule actuelle mesure 19 cm d'envergure, celle de son ancêtre du Paléozoïque atteignait 60 cm.
Les Odonates ont de grands yeux composés et des antennes de très petite taille.
Leur appareil buccal est de type broyeur.
Les Odonates sont des prédateurs tant à l'état larvaire qu'adulte. Les 4 ailes sont de taille égale (Zygoptères) ou peu différente (Anisoptères).
L'abdomen comporte 10 segments bien apparents et un 11ème réduit.
Les larves sont aquatiques et peuvent vivre entre 1 et 3 ans.
L'accouplement se déroule en vol, le mâle tient la femelle au niveau du cou par une sorte de pince située à l'extrémité de son abdomen, la femelle courbe alors le sien vers l'avant pour mettre en contact son orifice génital terminal avec celui du mâle situé au niveau du 9ème segment.
Il y a 5700 espèces d'Odonates dans le Monde et environ 120 en Europe.

The Order of Odonata includes Dragonflies and Agrions or Damselflies.
They are all medium or large insects. The largest dragonfly today measures 19 cm in scale, that of its ancestor from the Paleozoic reached 60 cm.
Odonata have large compound eyes and very small antennae.
Their oral appliance is of the grinder type.
Odonata are predators both in larvae and in adults. The 4 wings are of equal size (Zygoptères) or little different (Anisoptères).
The abdomen has 10 clearly visible segments and a reduced 11th.
The larvae are aquatic and can live between 1 and 3 years.
Mating takes place in flight, the male holds the female at the level of the neck by a sort of forceps located at the end of his abdomen, the female then curves hers forward to bring her terminal genital orifice into contact with that of the male located at the level of the 9th segment.
There are 5700 species of Odonates worldwide and around 120 in Europe.

... Seeing, understanding, but never imposing.
Realising our past mistakes, while cherishing,
What we have left.

"Person of strong character are usually the happiest. They do not blame others for troubles that can be traced to their own actions and lack of understanding. They know that no one has the power to add to their happiness or detract from it, unless they themselves allow the adverse thoughts or wicked actions of others to affect them." P. Yogananda
Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.

If you are depressed you are living in the past if you are anxious you are living in the future, if you are at peace, you are living in the present.

♫ It holds us like a phantom
The touch is like a breeze
It shines its understanding
See the moon smiling
Open on all channels
Ready to receive
And we're not at the mercy
Of your shimmers or spells
Your shimmers or spells
We are of the earth
To her we do return
The future is inside us
It's not somewhere else
One day at a time
We call upon the people
People have this power
The numbers don't decide
Your system is a lie
The river running dry
The wings of a butterfly
And you may pour us away like soup
Like we're pretty broken flowers
We'll take back what is ours
Take back what is ours
One day at a time ♫
Some wants proof of Good Luck
They keep searching
Will I find it 🍀 they ask themselves
Instead of looking around you
Why not look within
The luck you are searching is there
I know that for sure
Deal with your own shit instead of getting annoyed upon others'
You probably have the same things to deal with
But its easier to see others'
Find peace with yourself
Luck will come
Happiness too
And why not say
I love you
More often
To yourself and to others
The world would be a better place for us all if we do so
Have a lovable day
I love you ❤

Hi everybody and a great Friday morning to all and to all a great weekend.
In a word describing my visit with my daughter.....( DISASTER )......as soon as she got her my wife Tested Positive for Covid, so my daughter being the way she is changed her plans a flew back to New York the very next day, protecting he family, so that's how it's been here in the Kominsky house hold, things are looking up and am sure it will get better it has to at this point, it could not go any lower for sure.
Thanks to all for everything, your patience and friendship and understanding.
Presque aussi grande qu'un moineau domestique, c'est la plus grande des mésanges d'Europe. On la reconnaît essentiellement à sa tête noire contrastant avec des joues blanches et à son ventre jaune orné d'une raie médiane noire. Chez les mâles, cette raie se prolonge jusqu'à la queue. Chez la femelle, cette raie est plus terne et plus fine et s'arrête sur l'abdomen. Sachant cela, vous constaterez qu'il y a plus de mâles sur les mangeoires. Le dessus est vert olive, tirant vers le bleu sur les ailes et la queue et une petite barre blanche sur les ailes. Les petits donnent l'impression d'être plus ramassés, avec des joues jaunes.

Almost as large as a house sparrow, it is the largest of the European tits. It is mainly recognized by its black head contrasting with white cheeks and its yellow belly decorated with a black median stripe. In males, this line extends to the tail. In the female, this line is duller and finer and stops on the abdomen. Knowing this, you will find that there are more males on the feeders. The upper side is olive green, turning blue on the wings and tail and a small white bar on the wings. The little ones give the impression of being more collected, with yellow cheeks.

Named by my 8 year old son when he seen this picture.
I had an interesting morning at Skateraw... Id never been there at high tide and boy was it high... all the interesting rocks where covered. Thankfully it receded quite fast and uncovered this platform of rock just before sunrise.
I need to learn more about sunrise light... what makes for those nice pink red sunrises you see? I seem to get these clear sky almost what id call a dirty sunrise if that makes sense where the sky missed out on the pinks and reds and goes straight to dirty yellow. Anyone know any good books to read on understanding the sunrise and indeed sunset light and colours. I know every sunrise will be what it will be... but there must be some science behind the behaviours too.
Let's keep doing everything we can to create a just world founded on kindness, compassion, and understanding.
Remember that justice grows out of recognition of ourselves in each other — that my liberty depends on you being free too.
Stay strong, and keep speaking out against all forms of injustice.
Sending love, light, and hope, my friends.
Was not too much inspired for the title ;'D

Feeling nervous about the new year, the little man tries to stop the clock…
As we head into the new year, I wish for health and happiness for you and your loved ones.
Let’s keep lifting one another up, sharing kindnesses and support, understanding that every one of us is valuable and has something important to share.
Let’s remember that together we shine so much brighter, a beacon of light and hope that reminds us and others that we are one.
Let’s keep offering one another a hand when we fall down, giving each other a little nudge when we get stuck, realizing we’re all on the same team.
Let’s keep learning, listening, encouraging, connecting, growing, inspiring, and creating.
Stay confident. Stay strong. And don’t let anything stop you from blazing your trail.
Happy New Year, everyone!
