Given Life and Beloved- Month of Love#9

Paula Light’s challenge: , “Let’s celebrate the month of lurve (aka love) by posting one thing we love every day throughout February.

Sometimes you read something, like a poem or you hear a song and you say- wow that really is about  true love.

Sometimes though, these tributes show up in unexpected places.

Even if you don’t know anything about ancient Egypt or Pharaohs and their wives, it’s easy enough to see how much this Pharaohs loved his wife.

It wasn’t expressed through the carvings and monuments you see here.

It’s what he had written about his love for her:

“A temple of great and Mighty monuments, for the Great Royal Wife Nefertari Meryetmut, for whose sake the (very) sun does shine, given life and beloved”

For whose sake, the Sun does shine.

Beautiful.

Upstart Crow is not just my favorite TV show.

I am in love with it!

Here’s a clip where Will feels like he’s just scored the perfect hit and his victory speech is one that I give myself in a slightly different form after Halloween at my blog:

 

“By Jupiter’s hairy armpits finished!-

Result, oh yeah!

Who the bard?

Me the bard!

Iambic Pentameter  is my bitch!

I love it that even though the snow had turned to ice and the temperature had fallen below zero, my Granddaughter found a novel way of staying warm:

She jumped into a laundry basket of clothes fresh out of the dryer:

Snapshots Month of Love #5

I love these pictures because they remind me that photography doesn’t have to be about getting that ‘perfect shot’. It can be about finding that ‘perfect story’.

Or as I like to call it, ” I’m glad I saw that “.

Before the homeless guys set up camp in front of some buildings that people used to paint murals on, I used to like to take pictures of artwork. I guess I could take pictures of the tents and the barbeque grills and music system they’ve rigged up, but we’re all entitled to some privacy.

I’m going off topic-sorry.

Sometimes though, art would not be painted on a wall.

Like this little ‘stage’.

The story here is that my dog, Hamish knew he wasn’t supposed to eat the cat food. So he started to line his toys up in front of the bowl.

Then he would eat the food.

It made sense to Hamish.

My granddaughter- two years ago she put on her own production of Hamlet.

LOL.

FYI she still has this decoration in her toy box. She calls it ” Baby Monster “

So there they are, just little stories but good ones all the same.
