Jim Rohn.
Emanuel James "Jim" Rohn (September 17, 1930 – December 5, 2009) was an American entrepreneur, author and motivational speaker. Rohn started his professional life by working as a stock clerk for department store Sears. Around this time, a friend invited him to a lecture given by entrepreneur John Earl Shoaff. In 1955, Rohn joined Shoaff's direct selling business AbundaVita as a distributor.
In 1957, Rohn resigned his distributorship with AbundaVita and joined Nutri-Bio, another direct selling company. It was at this point that the company's founders, including Shoaff, started to mentor him. After this mentorship, Rohn built one of the largest organizations in the company. In 1960 when Nutri-Bio expanded into Canada, Shoaff and the other founders selected Rohn as a vice president for the organization.
Rohn mentored Mark R. Hughes (the founder of Herbalife International) and life coach Tony Robbins in the late 1970s.[citation needed] Others who credit Rohn for his influence on their careers include authors Mark Victor Hansen and Jack Canfield (Chicken Soup book series), author/lecturer Brian Tracy, Todd Smith, and T. Harv Eker. Rohn also coauthored the novel Twelve Pillars with Chris Widener.
Rohn was the recipient of the 1985 National Speakers Association CPAE Award for excellence in speaking. He is also the author of 17 different written, audio, and video media. Source Wikipedia.

The silence was beautiful yet stark. Harsh silence. Unlike like the soft silence that fills a golden yawning morning, the sharp silence stretched miles into dark unwavering shadows that disappeared in the wall of fog. I had left my car far behind in the parking lot at the RMNP following a trail that led me through gentle sloping hills and forest yet suddenly the trail seemed to end suddenly and I found myself in a whiteout like chasm of fog and swirling snow. I stared into this white silent world fascinated by the dark abstract shapes. Maybe they were trees. Maybe something moved. A dark blur of motion in my peripheral vision on my right sent me spinning. My heart quickened and suddenly logic was there, explaining in a loud voice in my head to take the path and leave. I hesitated. My eyes were drawn to the jagged pointed tree heads barely emerging through the heavy blanket of mist. The trees stood watching, waiting. I raised my camera and as I stared though the tiny square trying to focus I heard the crackle and pop of breaking branches. Click.
Perhaps it was deer, drawn into this flat white wall as I was or some other woodland creature. Being so far up in the National park there are a lot of wild animals. I only know that I found myself back at my car within record time (ha!) Back at home I'm drawn over and over again to the shadowy mystique of the image. I feel the snow flakes against my cheek and the intensity of the moment. Had to share it as small as it may seem. I hope you enjoy the intrigue as well.

Try to never lose direction. Otherwise, use the help of the light.

This morning we decided to through out the sofa, and burn it. We have been sleeping there since we moved in, but we are sure that something else also live in it. We hear how it prazzles, and something runs around in it..... not to mention all the residents we can´t see.......
We also cleaned up the mess, and the house feels a lot nicer to spend time in. We scrubbed the floors and walls, and cleaned all the windows. It was a hard job (it was really dirty), and we sat on the porch quite a while afterwards....... exhausted but happy. Stella started to talk about a bathroom....... well, I wish we had one. Probably that has to be priority one from now, but I need to find that leak first.
Another thing we discussed, was the hidden key we found hanging in the fireplace. Why was it hidden...... and why in the fireplace ? What was it for a key...... and where is the right lock for it ? Lots of questions, but no answers.
Tomorrow my brother come for a quick visit. Wonder what he thinks of this place......... this place which are going to be the crown of Stella´s and mine love story.
As we said : - " Don´t give it up. Let´s fight for hope and glory ! "
Good night...... sleep tight !

This is Watching & Waiting.
I went out in hope of catching some lightning strikes, but they didn't eventuate. I decided to take this minimal shot whilst watching the storms roll in. The w.e has storms forecast, so hopefully maybe tomorrow I might be able to capture some lightning strikes again.
thanks for viewing

The 2023 firefall season seems to have been very brief. I snowshoed to Sentinel Dome on Friday, February 17, and it was cloudy that night and the following one. Before then, it was too early for an optimal alignment. I shot this on Sunday, Feb 19. On Monday, a huge storm blew in, ending the opportunities to photograph the firefall.
While thousands of people gathered on the floor of Yosemite Valley, only a few watched from the rim. 11 miles of snow travel from the nearest plowed road keeps out the crowds.
