I couldn’t find you, my dearest dad and mom… but I believe you must be fine, with the mindfully prayers in this holy ground, morning and dust.

With a blossom flowers that humming in the corner of the night.

LCG 02

And the morning sun,  landed on this fairy tale.

And also, receiving happiness from Maitreya Buddha.

Offering pure flower to him…

LCG 08

Many more…

And more…

And of course, with a stress free environment and a professional guard man, so I believe my dearest dad and mom, you must be okay!

This is what you shall do


ivonprefontaine's avatarTeacher as Transformer

This is not a poem, but Walt Whitman used poetic language and deep meditative thought it qualifies. He used  language in ways that are politically incorrect today, but provided considerable insight into what it might mean to be a servant-leader and live in the world that way.

I become part of the world and it is embodied in me in such remarkable ways as I learn from the world. I think that is the counsel that this passage provides for me and asks of me.

“This is what you shall do: love the earth and the sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning god, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number…

Lets smile :)


Lively poem.

Jyoti Vishwakarma's avatarJyoti Vishwakarma’s

Blooming hearts;
With the peace in mind,
Warmth of relief;
As the strong wind dried.
Freshness in each;
Breaths intake,
Freely, happily flying;
No compromises to make.
Smiling with the life,
Smiling with the strives.
Heart is rejoice,
With the present it decided.
Smiling is all that heals,
At the shore, each emotions are resided….

” KEEP SMILING…..,
it is the only thing, 
Which will either warm your heart and soul or piss off others mood and life…
Both the ways; you’re the winner…..”

My new BFF free digital photo editing program

Opinion

Pictures copyright 2012 Russel Ray Photos

Before I actually buy software, I like to search around to see if there is anything free that will let me do the things I want to do. Usually there is, but free stuff often comes with other problems.

For example, before I bought Photoshop, Lightroom, Photo-Paint, and PaintShop Pro, I searched for free software that would let me edit my digital photos. I found programs like Picmonkey, Picasa, Gimp, and several others that aren’t even worth mentioning because they were so bad that I don’t even remember them!

My dislike of free programs often has something to do with the free program not having all the functions of the paid program. The free program is just a teaser to, hopefully, get you addicted enough that you will want to buy the paid program. In the early days of computing, we called such programs crippleware.

Another problem is that…

A gallery of dew drops …. 

Dew is water in the form of droplets that appears on thin, exposed objects in the morning or evening due to condensation. As the exposed surface cools by radiating its heat, atmospheric moisture condenses at a rate greater than that at which it can evaporate, resulting in the formation of water droplets.

When temperatures are low enough, dew takes the form of ice; this form is called frost (frost is, however, not frozen dew).

Because dew is related to the temperature of surfaces, in late summer it is formed most easily on surfaces which are not warmed by conducted heat from deep ground, such as grass, leaves, railings, car roofs, and bridges.

DewRose

~~Formation~~

Water vapour will condense into droplets depending on the temperature. The temperature at which droplets can form is called the dew point. When surface temperature…

You Are Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile


Great blog

Alastair's avatarA Mixed Bag

I find that sometimes things happen that take our breath away either in a good way or in a bad way. We can have the wind knocked out from us by something happening that is so destructive that our lives will never be the same again, or something so good. so … beautiful, so wondrous that it changes our lives forever. These changes all have to be met so that you can adapt to the changes. I would say easily, but they are not always easy, in fact some may seem impossible, but impossible says “I’m Possible” There is always a way. Always

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it
Life is beauty, admire it
Life is a dream, realise it
Life is a challenge, meet it
Life is a duty, complete it
Life is a game, play it
Life is a promise, fulfill it
Life is sorrow, overcome it
