Art can be good therapy, especially in tough times. This afternoon, I followed along with a folk art tutorial by @willowing (courtesy of Karen Abend’s #sketchbookrevival), creating a “quirky bird”... though I think mine turned out to be more of a “worry bird”! 😅

First shoot for my final project today!

Trying to represent the fear, the indecision and the worry!

Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.

Good news will work its way to all them plans.

We both got fired on exactly the same day.

Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.

 

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on.

Alright already, we'll all float on.

No don't you worry. We'll all float on.

Alright, already. We'll all float on.

Alright, don't worry. We'll all float on.

- "Float On" by Modest Mouse

 

Freshmen year is coming to a close and it's been a helluva year. At times, it felt like everything bad that could happen, did happen (Damn you Murphy). But no matter how dark it got, I just kept pushing towards the light and I've managed to Float On.

Waiting, it haunts me.

Today it’s weighing me down,

I know that God wants me to be patient

and that I’m suppose to wait for the right moment.

If it’s suppose to happen.. it will happen.

God has this all figured out.

But I’m still just tired of waiting,

but I’ll trust God with this.

He has my life in His hands,

so there is no point in worrying.

  

I’m not sure that I’m completely comfortable posting this.. and it might end up being deleted soon.. but it’s just how I feel today.. and I felt like sharing.

Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

I shoot my city and everything in it. No style, just pics. (ORo)

Why Worry

Dire Straits

 

Baby, I see this world has made you sad

Some people can be bad

The things they do, the things they say

 

But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears

I'll chase away those restless fears

That turn your blue skies into gray

 

Why worry

There should be laughter after pain

There should be sunshine after rain

These things have always been the same

So why worry now

 

Why worry now

 

A last minute mad dash down to this pool, after I had been up above it on the Seacliff bridge shooting pre sunrise. Was well worth the effort I think.

 

Hope you like "Why Worry"

Cheers, Mike

A Mayan custom is to tell your worries to these people and put them under your pillow at bedtime. The worry people absorb your troubles so that they have gone in the morning.

 

Pretty little things, they bring in important revenue to farmers and families in Guatemala. They are sometimes used by psychologists, especially with children.

–verb (used without object)

1. to torment oneself with or suffer from disturbing thoughts; fret.

 

2. to move with effort: an old car worrying uphill.

–verb (used with object)

 

3. to torment with cares, anxieties, etc.; trouble; plague.

 

4. to seize, esp. by the throat, with the teeth and shake or mangle, as one animal does another.

 

5. to harass by repeated biting, snapping, etc.

Hidden deep in Clifton Gorge is this tranquil scene. A scene so gorgeous, it just melts all your worries and stress away. I took this photograph from a footbridge that is normally full of people taking in the scenery.

I have been putting off this upload for the entire week. Truth be told, it's hard to talk about.

 

Our vet called to let us know that Sakura has a heart murmur, that doesn't appear to have been there when she was younger, which points to heart disease. We've been referred to a specialist and she is receiving an echocardiogram tomorrow.

 

I could just hope for the best and not worry, but that's not in my nature. Maybe you guys can be optimistic for me.

For many years I am taking photos at (the old city of) Jerusalem. So, I know the pattern well: as the peaceful period extends longer and longer, the number of tourists in town increases. Then, one day suddenly 'a little war' or 'a terror attack' terminates the (pseudo-)peaceful period. At once, the city becomes empty of tourists for a period; until they start to return slowly; and so on.

 

So, for a while already, when I was walking at the crowded lanes of the old city, I was asking myself: when and how would the next blow hit us?

In my wildest dream, I did not imagine that it would be in the form of a pandemic…

 

The photo was taken in December 2017, at the time of the previous depression (in tourism).

I love invitations to groups. love them! but I don't like those big or sparkly invites. so, as much as I love being invited, and love you for inviting me, I will delete them.

sorry.

Dire Straits - Why Worry

 

Baby I see this world has made you sad

Some people can be bad

The things they do, the things they say

But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears

I'll chase away those restless fears

That turn your blue skies into grey

Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain

There should be sunshine after rain

These things have always been the same

So why worry now

Baby when I get down I turn to you

And you make sense of what I do

I know it isn't hard to say

But baby just when this world seems mean and cold

Our love comes shining red and gold

And all the rest is by the way

Why worry, there should be laughter after pain

There should be sunsh ine after rain

These things have always been the same

So why worry now

Throw your worries

ارمي همومك

تعالي فضفضي وارمي همومك في بحر صدريولا تخلين في قلبك من اهمومـك ولا قطـره

انا والله ما اتحمل يجيـك الضيـق ياعمـريومن اليوم العذاب اللي تخافيه انتهـى امـره

معايه لا تخافي اسهـري والا ارقـدي بـدريولا تطرين لي أهـات والا خـوف او حسـره

تمشي في بساتين القصور الللي على خبـريومن كل الزهور اللي تشوفين اقطفـي زهـره

تغنـي وارقصـي خلـيـك كــا لقـمـرييطيـر مـن الفـرح مـن شجـره لشجـره

ابـي لاجيـت اشوفـك ينـشـرح صــدريمابـي لاجيـت اشوفـك يشتـعـل جـمـره

“The creative process is always interesting and surprising. It’s sometimes direct but more often takes many twists and turns… it’s like following streams of energy. Sometimes there are ebbs where ya got nothin’, then something changes and there’s a new stream to follow. It often feels like the images have their own life and I get to be part of how they unfold. It’s being in that process of unfolding that keeps me engaged, brings pleasure and feelings of connection to the world around me. It’s also fun!” @OolaCristina

 

I love what Oola writes above about her approach to creativity; it really echoes with mine. You can read more about Oola’s creative process and see her work at iphoneograhycentral.com

Don't Worry, Be Happy ~ Our Daily Challenge

 

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.

Huge banner taking up a lot of space, nearly the whole width of the room. It is half of two pieces. The other banner says "IT IS NOT GOOD TO WORRY".

Never turn your back to life.

 

I enjoy taking photos and contemplate on them. I took this simple photo and had some good lessons from it.

 

Believe it or not, I found out the secret of happiness that a lot of people are desperately looking for.

 

Always consider the bounties you have. Never think of those you don't.

 

Nobody has it all in this life. Some people have the money. However they are so sick that they cannot enjoy it.

 

Some other people may enjoy perfect health but they are sad because they think that money is happiness.

  

Appreciating what you have and forgetting the things you don't make you happy.

 

Please contemplate on the following saying of Propjet Muhammed (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him)

  

On the authority of Abu Abbas Abdullah bin Abbas, one of the companions of the Prophet (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:

 

One day I was behind the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) [riding on the same mount] and he said, “O young man, I shall teach you some words [of advice]: Be mindful of Allah and Allah will protect you. Be mindful of Allah and you will find Him in front of you. If you ask, then ask Allah [alone]; and if you seek help, then seek help from Allah [alone]. And know that if the nation were to gather together to benefit you with anything, they would not benefit you except with what Allah had already prescribed for you. And if they were to gather together to harm you with anything, they would not harm you except with what Allah had already prescribed against you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried.”

 

Another narration reads: Be mindful of Allah, and you will find Him in front of you. Recognize and acknowledge Allah in times of ease and prosperity, and He will remember you in times of adversity. And know that what has passed you by [and you have failed to attain] was not going to befall you, and what has befallen you was not going to pass you by. And know that victory comes with patience, relief with affliction, and hardship with ease.

same flea market. different balloons, obvsly, but strung up on the same gated entry. just under a year ago.

 

balloons revisited

 

looking at my old post, it occurs to me that i can't remember the last time that i used a texture on an image, when textures used to be my primary focus, almost.

 

odd how things change like that and you hardly notice. until you do.

   

Busy and worrying times for the red stags as they battle for dominance in the highly competitive rut.

 

Six weeks of not eating and during which they lose a lot of weight but that allows stronger younger stags an opportunity to take over the harems and so improve the blood lines.

 

Impressive to watch but not if you are an ambitious stag

 

This stag did cause me some concern as frankly I do not trust him and he did not trust me as he stepped slowly one step at a time nearer to me but I allowed discretion of take over and I slowly retreated.

And I won't be made useless.

 

I finally made a Facebook Fanpage! Please check it out :)
