This summer, I saw Cirque du Soleil performers defy human limits. Their acrobatics—graceful, daring, otherworldly—left me speechless. Ordinary people, yet capable of extraordinary feats, they bent, soared, twisted in ways I never thought possible. It’s a vivid reminder of our potential.-thread

It’s been over 4 months! I’ve been sober for 130 days. AA saved me. I’ll be coming back shortly for a longer update. But just wanted to say….life is so much better. Even though I have Covid right now. Actually being sick was better when I was drinking because I was always sick. So it was Normal :-/

‘Neath grim skies, tempests weave dark shrouds of gloom, A silence waits the bolt’s incandescent doom. Clouds, like mourners, brood in sable veils, Their wrath unleashed in lightning’s fiery trails. The earth trembles, scarred by heaven’s cruel spire, A fleeting blaze, eternity’s dread fire.

This is a spectacular piece of art. Just a beautiful photo with breathtaking qualities, shadow and light within those beautiful copper tones. Mr. Ray Mackey, I stand in awe of your work good-sir.

The Golden Gate Bridge isn’t just a structure; it’s a timeless symbol of beauty and connection. At night, its shimmering lights reflect off the water, creating a romantic and magical scene. Each shot captures the bridge’s stunning presence, inviting you to fall in love with its glow.

I was in a Japanese garden and I saw this #duck swimming so I took a photo. It looks almost like it is looking up and enjoying the #autumn colors.
