Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Que nós sejamos capazes de respeitar cada processo para que essas coisas ao chegarem em nossas vidas, possam valer a liberdade de como elas nos encontram. O importante é preservar o encanto e a importância que depositamos em cada uma delas. Não interessa quanto tempo demorem para chegar, porque a vida por si só é uma (…). A anestesia que ameniza o peso da realidade, são os momentos bons. Portanto, independente da época e da forma, que aquele que chegue, ganhe a nossa real admiração.
Beijo no coração de todos!…

Marii Freire.

Desejo a todos um excelente domingo!!

May Nature Walk

Michael Stephen Wills Photography

Pam and I headed out to Treman Park for a walk to the Lucifer Falls overlook. The Gorge Trail is not yet open due to the danger of rock falling from the gorge walls — the park maintenance staff needs to survey winter damage and knock down material in danger of falling.

Our first stop was the mill waterfall. This was was directed to the mill stream to power the mill where grain was ground to order.

Here is an overview of the Mill, now a museum not yet opened post-Covid. The millstone stands at the start of the foot trails. All media on this post is from my IPhone 7, lightweight equipment for this hike. The automatic upload to ICloud is convenient.

Round trip is four-plus miles, with several hundred feet elevation change. Pam and I discussed a car caravan for our next visit, to support a one-way downhill…

Hard Work Never Fails….

Everything you learn

As we know that…

SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE

We work, but the result is failed because your not loving it what you do.

Question yourself about your passion and dreams which make you happy.

First of all, avoid people who discourage you and find who support you.

Find the people what you love, and take advice from them. Then you can know pros and cons of what are you doing.

If you fail, try again, try again…..then at the end, you will get success.

TRY AND TRY UNTIL YOU SUCCEED

If you love your work there is no effect or stress to you.

Try things differently, without hard work you will not gain anything success or happiness.

Think bold, don’t take any thing to your heart.

You discourage them show them what you are.

Daily do what you like and do your work it will boost you.

Yet Another Way Republicans Are Squashing Democracy

Citizen initiatives were long promoted by Progressive Republicans and others in the early 1900s as a means to give citizens more control over government – now, Trumpians are trying to make government more powerful over citizens by taking away voting rights – https://ballotpedia.org/History_of_initiative_and_referendum_in_the_U.S.

Filosofa's Word

I was almost finished writing a post for this afternoon when this one by TokyoSand over at Political Charge caught my eye, and it is on a topic that is too important not to share.  Please take a minute or two to read her entire post about another way in which the Republican Party is working to rob us of a voice in our government.  Thank you once again, TS!

Restricting access to voting is one obvious way Republicans are making America less democratic, but they are also working behind the scenes to eliminate another way regular citizens can get their voices heard.

Because we are a representative democracy, the most obvious way to get our values and voices heard in our federal or state government is by electing politicians who hold our same values. But there’s another tool we have that lets us practice direct democracy — yes, a…

Video shows illegal gold miners attacking indigenous village in Brazil

A group of illegal gold miners fired shots at an indigenous village in Roraima state in northern Brazil on May 10. A video of the attack, filmed by members of the Yanomami community who live there, is proof of what the Yanomami have been saying for years, that there has been a sharp increase in violence across their territory since the arrival of close to 20,000 illegal gold miners. With clashes continuing throughout the week, local organisations are calling for an increase in security forces.

¿Comer el mundo o salvaguardar el mundo? Paradigmas opuestos — Leonardo Boff — mimismo

Barbara Crane Navarro

Leonardo Boff “Comer el mundo” o “salvaguardar el mundo” son una metáfora, frecuente en la boca de líderes indígenas, cuestionando el paradigma de nuestra civilización, cuya violencia casi los ha hecho desaparecer. Ahora ha sido puesto en jaque por la Covid-19. El virusha caídocomo un rayo sobre el paradigma de “comer el mundo”, es decir,[…][…]
