Drowning in Trivialities - vs. Fire.

They try to drown us in trivialities, bury us under superficialities.

Many fall and are being flushed away.


Some won't.

Thanks for the latter!!!

Some Great Documentary Work - 'Born From Urgency'

Please check out the latest film project of Joey L., 

Born From Urgency - Faces from the Frontline Against ISIS. 

Warning, some content some people might consider as graphic - while kids in the region for years have to face such on a daily basis, but, well ...

Take the time - it's great stuff and makes one think about it, again.


Born From Urgency - Faces from the Frontline Against ISIS from Joey L on Vimeo.

'Amidst the chaos of the Iraq and Syrian War, independent photographer and director Joey L. embeds himself with Kurdish guerrilla organizations on the frontlines against ISIS. Without the constraints typical of our mainstream media, Joey offers a deeply personal, humanizing, and controversial view of the war.

This is a follow up to the 2015 film "Guerrilla Fighters of Kurdistan" vimeo.com/129935570
Please consider supporting Joey's ongoing, independent work by purchasing a book or fine art print: joeyLshop.com'

Have a successfully contemplative day,

Nits

Ignoring nits 

Today

Means dealing with lice

Tomorrow.

Lousy - but that's just how it is.

In the Midst of Paradise

In the midst of the paradise we live in

as this planet is as beautiful that it can even not be named

with all possibilities, all options, all tools, all knowledge, all understanding

directly at our hands

it is humans who daily 

create hell.

It is completely not understandable for any normally functioning heart or brain.
Sorry, not positive news and also not such views despite much trying, these days,
desperate, yours

Let's Call Him Carl, the Chickpea

How do I get out of this? one chickpea, lets call him Carl for now, asks the other. Well, I know how it works, said the other chickpea. That we are boiling here is the fault of the parsley. No, said the first one, that's just irrelevant, we are in the center of all attention, aren't we. Let's not get irritated here!

Thus, they went on, discussing, arguing and babbling among themselves, watching the carrots pass by and away, and adored the sweet little chopped onions when they got in touch. They really enjoyed their time and reassured one another how much they did.

How great a life we have, haven't we, mumbled a third chickpea, almost well done. Yes, sure, agreed the others. We are fully in control here, aren't we!

Just wanted to mention.
People must draw their conclusions themselves.

Finding of The Day - Wild, Resilient and Unobedient

Just found this one, it makes my heart sing because I so fully concur:

We're wild, resilient and unobedient. The touch of love from our hands and hearts heals and nurtures. I am so proud. #InternationalWomensDay

Thought of The Day - High End Tools

High end tools 

far too dangerous 

in the hands of fools.

What can we do?

Lyn

All The Gifts We Received ...

From all the gifts we received ... what have we made out of it?

I see only incompetence all around, and incompatibility with all values of Life.

What have we done?


Never understandable. 


Lyn

What?

Do you know what? Just treat people as what they are. So easy. Easier is absolutely not possible.

Just do it!

Our way

"This is our way my daughter, our way is a duty to defend, work and fight to have a better and free future for you and for all children like you."

This is actually the same way I sense it - and why I do support.


The Good will prevail and take over!
