At times it feels like I am dreaming.

So great to go out and to allow one's emotions to be pacified. Only nature can do this for me.

Poetry in motion is a good way to describe the natural art in the scenes.

So amazing to watch the constant changes in the scenes, as nature uses the elements and the winds to paint the beautiful sights. Talking about emotions, we recently had a moving experience, as a tree that we adopted to honor our little friend that passed away was eventually planted. So, we were invited to go and see the tree and it was a situation of tears and happiness. I have shown you the post HERE
So, you might understand that I was a bit raw inside when I took these photos.
Come and see.

The sun joined the party for a short while and it turned up some magical colors. We have had daily rains here for the past two weeks and today was no exception, so we could only come out for a short while. Thankfully it was a good experience.

Talking about rain, you can see below that the clouds started to darken at a rapid pace. I loved to see the sun ray piercing the clouds to show up the palm tree in its beauty.

I so wish that I could paint this picture below, but someone has hi-jacked my painting talents and sold them to some famous artist many years ago :)

And so, the time arrived for us to go, as the power cut was over, and we had work to do before the next power cut arrived.

The cold has also arrived, and we are busy packing food parcels that we will take to hand out to the poor people that live in the streets. Always a dicey affair as some of them go and sell the parcels to get money for alcohol, but we cannot keep an eye on them. So, we console ourselves with the thought that we give from our hearts, and what they do with it is between them and God. As in life, there will always be abusers, but that will not stop us from doing at Papillon what we do, because if even one was helped, then our giving was worth it.
Just our way of looking at life.

I hope that you enjoyed the story and the pictures.

And That's All Friends.

Sort:  

that's I hate to other people, we help them to make their lives better but still they do bad habits or things ..

Just the way that life is, as some will be happy and others will be sly.

Indeed… if only one was helped it was worth it.
Have a wonderful Tuesday Zac 🤗😊

And again, I'm taken with your story and the pictures that come with it. May I ask permission to use that beautiful landscape as a wallpaper for my phone? It won't exceed that. I just love how much the pictures speak to me and yes, nature consoles. It speaks to me even when it seems like isn't present. And the fact that my future holds sights like these just gives me peace. ❤️❤️

You're moving to the country???

!LUV

Hahaha. Moving not sure... But exploring? Now that's in the plan! 😁😁❤️

Awesome :) Will you be going to the nature reserves, to see the lions and elephants???

!PIZZA

Thank you and yes, you are welcome to use it as a screensaver. All human beings have a part of nature within them and nature talks to those parts whenever it appears in picture form.
Glad that they gave you a sence of peace.

Thank you 😊

Hopefully you will eventually only remember the joy that Troy brought, without the tears

Always a dicey affair as some of them go and sell the parcels to get money for alcohol

True, but they don't sell everything. No matter how much they might like drinking, eventually they have to eat

Oh yes, and it was amazing how that tree helped us to accept closure.

True, they will keep one item and sell the rest !LOL

It is really amazing to see the cloud and watch it till dusk. Well, nature helps to put my mind at peace and helps me to be at peace with myself
Thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures

Nature certainly lulls one's mind into a sense of peace.
Glad that you enjoyed the pictures.

Yes you may well be dreaming Zac, or perhaps you are being dreamed by the great dreamer in the sky.

I don't know what happened to my previous reply here Julian, but maybe it was also dreamed by the great dreamer in the sky !LOLZ

Hey there many thanks my compatriot. Laughter is the best medicine.

Laughter always makes live more bearable my friend. Especially if we can learn to laugh at ourselves.
