Hommel in actie op passiebloem
Het verhaal gaat dat de passiebloem zich op Golgotha om het kruis van Christus heeft gewonden. Maar dat is praktisch onmogelijk, omdat passiebloemen pas in de zestiende eeuw in Zuid-Amerika zijn ontdekt. De legende is hoogstwaarschijnlijk verzonnen door Spaanse missionarissen, die de vreemde vormen in de forse bloemen dankbaar hebben aangegrepen om er het kruisigingsverhaal van Jezus Christus mee te illustreren.
This is more than I wanted
Take me out of the dark I roam in
Cold and black you are out of touch here
Lightly falling you whisper you're scared
It's the weight of the world I know
As I struggle to be whole
It's the weight of the world I know
As you are mine and we will find
This is stranger than love or loss
Turning back words you face the dawning
No excuse for a wasted life
Lightly falling through a whisper of sky
Time will change still the world remains the same
Time will change still the world remains the same
It's the weight of the world I know
As I struggle to be whole
It's the weight of the world I know
As you are mine and we will fly
A single blade of grass frozen by the iced surface of a pond, and weighed down by the weight if ice and frost crystals that cover its entire surface.
“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.”

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY
Sometimes in life we come full circle
I see a footprint of my beginning
and here I am back at the start
I see the people who tried to stop me winning
but I rise above them; and leave them far behind
I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand
and something deep inside me drives me on
no looking back; I am complete; I understand
sometimes in life we cannot win them over
it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand
and He will guide me on my journey
bring me safely to the shore
where angels sing; rejoice and hold me
and I will not be frightened any more
He sees in us the pain; the human burden
He sees the weight that life and people bring
He knows how much; He knows and He is certain
He will not give us more than we can take
so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing
and when at last our cup is brimming over
He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow
and we feel the greatest love that ever found us
and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow
and once more we are peaceful
finding joy in simple things
as darkness; shadows and all our plights
are left behind and taken care of;
whisked away on angel's wings
and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed
as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light
and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow
this moment we exist; and in this moment
I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

This reed survived a Lithuanian winter that outweighs it a million to one. Proof that the heaviest weights we carry are usually the ones we create for ourselves and exist only in our heads.
Winter is leaving Lithuania. I suggest we leave the heavy thoughts behind with it.

Sea lions are pinnipeds characterized by external ear flaps, long foreflippers, the ability to walk on all fours, short and thick hair, and a big chest and belly. Together with the fur seals, they make up the family Otariidae, eared seals. The sea lions have six extant and one extinct species (the Japanese sea lion) in five genera. Their range extends from the subarctic to tropical waters of the global ocean in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, with the notable exception of the northern Atlantic Ocean.
Sea lions have an average lifespan of 20–30 years. A male California sea lion weighs on average about 300 kg (660 lb) and is about 2.4 m (8 ft) long, while the female sea lion weighs 100 kg (220 lb) and is 1.8 m (6 ft) long. The largest sea lions are Steller's sea lions, which can weigh 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) and grow to a length of 3.0 m (10 ft). Sea lions consume large quantities of food at a time and are known to eat about 5–8% of their body weight (about 6.8–15.9 kg (15–35 lb)) at a single feeding. Sea lions can move around 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) in water and at their fastest they can reach a speed of about 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph). Three species, the Australian sea lion, the Galápagos sea lion and the New Zealand sea lion, are listed as endangered

The bottom skip was mine, taking away the rubbish. I'm having my garden renovated to make it easier to maintain. :-))

Jaguars are the third largest of the four big cats. It has a sturdy build and usually weights between 125 and 200 pounds. It can reach up to six feet long and stand at about 2 and half feet at the shoulder.
Jaguars will either crush and suffocate and victim or bite straight through his skull. It prefers to stalk and eventually ambush its prey rather than chase it. Then it pounces from a prey’s blind spot. After the kill, jaguars prefer to drag their meal to a secluded spot to eat. They are carnivores but will eat almost any kind of meat.
Jaguars live in South and Central America. Jaguars are larger and stockier than leopards.
Jaguars can kill their prey by cracking their skulls. while leopards kill with a suffocating bite.
If you look closely you can see some fine wires running from the tips of the tail planes to the mid-rear fuselage on each side. These were an early form of 'friend or foe' detection; a radio signal from them helped differentiate defending RAF aircraft from others on the crude radar screens of the time.
This aircraft has a 'c' type wing, sometimes called the 'universal' wing which had provision for up to four 20mm cannon and four 0.303 Browning machine guns, although because of weight restrictions, not all could be carried at the same time without seriously degrading the aircraft performance. It is not uncommon to see two of the cannons capped off, as here. The red tape over the machine gun ports was to prevent debris from muddy airfields being blown back into the guns from the propeller while the engine was running on the ground. Wet mud could jam the guns. Of course, the first shots would go straight through the tape.
The outer machine guns were often considered to be not all that effective - the wings would vibrate when they were firing, so an ever widening cone of bullets would issue forth reducing the effectiveness on the target. The 'e' wing, which many later Spitfires sported, was a simplified 'c' wing, had the outer four machine guns bays deleted and could carry heavier machine guns and/or cannon in the four inner bays.

A very personal image that I've debated actually posting but I think I need to. It's an addition to my series based around depression and those who struggle to get through it. There's a weight that depression has, it feels like you're carrying something much too heavy all the time.
November is usually when my depression settles into my mind, like a dimmer switch slowly turning the lights lower. I get anxious when the seasons change, hopeful that I'll be bright enough to push out any negative energy that tries to weigh me down.
I won't be held down by who I used to be.
