Sharing


“The sharing of joy, physical, emotional, psychic, or intellectual, forms a bridge between the sharers which can be the basis for understanding and lessens the threat of their difference.” Audre Lorde

This is what the horizon looks like at the edge of a cyclone, lots of blustery winds and spots of rain.

Click the link to see what everyone else in Sky Watch Friday is posting as their view over the horizon this week.







Missed the internet the last few weeks and looking forward to getting around to visiting everyone again soon.

Welcome back to the virtual world after (I suppose) wrapping, packing, hauling, organizing... Hope your move went well.

welcome back, I've been a bit lacking in internet time too!

hope it went well, how exciting to be in a new place

the beeswax was from a local hardware store but I've seen it in Bunnings. it doesn't shine it up too much, if anything makes it dull, I don't use it all the time as it does have a tendency to make the white go creamy which at them moment I don't like *but it is good to bring it up if there are scratches and dings and also protects it, oh and smells all domestic godessy hahaha!!!

Tarolino said...

I wondered where you had been. Good luck in your new home.
Wow! Is that really the edge of a cyclone. Impressive - and scary. Very similar to those clouds I posted in last week but they only brought on a snow storm. Cyclones we don't get.

Lene said...

Beautiful :) I guess there is a real fairytale going on somewhere in that picture :) Great :)

Arija said...

Hello again! & thankyou for your kind words! i only just found them, it seems by the time i share the computer i only have barely enough time to get my posts up :)i love your photo of the bridge & the quote. the connecting power of bridges has always inspired me. id love to get a shot of the indooropilly bridge, its the only one in the southern hemisphere people live in! & it was so exciting that you knew the building & could appreciate that photo which i quite liked also! hope things are becoming slightly more orderly :) have a beautiful day whatever the weather!
