Principle: Freedom and the right to privacy stand or fall together.
......original photography and artwork by bleujay.
'Winterscape'
Principles are timeless truths/concepts/proverbs for our ponderance.
Thank you to @fyrstikken for reminding bleujay of this principle in this post.....https://steemit.com/serious-security/@fyrstikken/the-joy-of-flashing-the-steem-account-value
Thank you Steemit readers. Cheers.
A kind note to all new Steemians......good manners and thoughtfulness of others will take you far....as for those who leave notes and links directing members to their site....and those who comment without an accompanying upvote.......please be advised this is not the Steemit way. bleujay does request that Steemians be so kind as to not leave gifs/photographs/etc. so as not to distract from the post......thank you.
It's gorgeous and see the river flowing and the snow / ice that lightens up, right by the water canyon. The leaves give beautiful color in the picture.
One must see the whole picture and not just the picture
It's reminiscent of spring break, or I'm looking forward to it.
For me, spring is more beautiful when birds sing and then I know the energy is coming.
Greetings @xpilar.
Thank you for your kind complimentary words.
Yes......we do look forward to Spring and those first chartreuse buds promising more to come.......so I thought of the contrast....what better than ice on the creek later to be contrasted with the vibrancy and colour of Spring.
You know winter always tries to have the last word......It could have been called 'Winter's Last Gasp'.
Wishing you all the best.
Cheers.
Thank you @ bleujay
Simple and strong mesage. Its nice to see the winterscape without the snow.
Great job.
Thank you for your kind reply @oldtimer.
Appreciate hearing you enjoyed the post.
Looking forward to seeing your posts....have to tell you those kitties are too cute.
All the best to you and yours.
Cheers.
I agree wholeheartedly with this principle. Your winterscape photography is fantastic as well! Great post!
Thank you for your kind and enthuastic reply @brian.rrr.
Appreciate hearing you enjoyed the post.
Looking forward to reading what you have out there.
All the best to you and yours.
Cheers.
An interesting principle when it comes to Steemit isn't it? I read fyrstikken's post with interest. It poses some interesting questions. I remember when I first joined steemit I was agog at the idea that all wallets were open to casual inspection.
Such a stark yet beautiful winterscape. There is a true beauty in those frozen yet sunny scenes
Thank you for your kind reply @meesterboom.
Appreciate hearing your thoughts.
bleujay is interested in what the witnesses have to say....really appreciated fyrstikken articulating his stance on the issue. The way Steemit is set up does give one the option to be anonymous and for that bleujay is grateful.
So happy to hear you enjoyed the post.
'Happy birthday' to the little lady.....sounded like a lovely day.
Cheers.
It was indeed a lovely day. she was very happy.
That is one saving grace certainly the lack of insistence on real names. Here is hoping it stays that way!
stand together of course!
I wonder if they'd ever make the wallet private and only those who are registered and logged in could see it sighs ..
I hope they do :D
stay warm mon ami!
Lovely to hear from you mon ami......
Yes...stand together of course... ^__^
That sounds a brilliant idea.
Oh yes....lets have a cuppa.
A bientot.
lets! ^ ____ ^
Good principle! Beautiful scenery with little stream covering with ice and the amazing trees. I like the color of the leaves and grass in the last picture, too!
Great photos and good artwork, as always! ;)
Thank you @tangmo for stopping by.
Always happy to hear you enjoyed the principle and the photographs/artwork.
Wishing you and yours a lovely week-end. ^__^
Cheers.
It’s my great pleasure!
Wishing you and yours all the best! ;)
You have such philosophical posts, I always have to think about your words first and every time I am wondering are you philosopher, priest or may be a teacher. This principle is one that really that many people striving and wishing to have. I believe that every human have to be free and have freedom of movement, of choice to decide, and to tell what he thinks. Living in Western world I consider myself very lucky to have everything freedom and the right for privacy. Having it since our childhood we think that it is a norm and just there. But when we grow up and see how the people in other countries have no freedom and live in tyranny, of course they have no right for privacy, that is the major problem in our modern world.
Thank you for nice pictures of this little river that has no problem and free, it can choose its way and if there any obstruction on its way it just chooses a way to bypass it.
Thank you @stef1 for your thought-full and kind reply.
Lovely to hear......that is what they are supposed to do....cause one to ponder these timeless truths.
To answer your wonderings.....bleujay is a student....of history...of the philosophers...of the Bible....where many of these principles originate. Life is full of purpose, meaning and definition when one is a student of the Bible under the intruction of a pastor who studies from the original languages of the Bible.
Your expressed thoughts are true....we in the West are not quite aware of this treasure or we would not give it away.....always good to be reminded. Your comment concerning the river was lovely to think on.
All the best.
Cheers.
I am very grateful for your answer and for disclosure of what you are. I enjoy reading your replies, there is something that bring a peace in them. May be that is the purpose of your posts. Thank you for that!
Beautiful winter photos dear @bleujay with great words of Principle
Have a great Sunday :)
Dear @pepe.maya......very kind of you to drop by. ^__^
Appreciate your compliment and thoughts regarding the principle.
Thank you for your kind wishes.
Here's hoping you are having a lovely Sunday.
I think that principle is true mostly but what about STEEM for example? Here there is very little right to privacy, everyone's account is open and we can see all activity on the blockchain, yet we still have a great deal of freedom as users.
Thank you for your reply @captaincanary.
Yes.....it is true that here at Steemit....it is open to public view.....which is why so many do not think they are free to use their proper names and instead use a nickname.
@frystikken recently posted about the matter of security and privacy at least as it relates to one's Steem accumulation and brought up some very valid points.
Appreciate hearing your thoughts.
Cheers.
True, you are right about the nicknames. I guess a mixture of privacy and openness is ideal.
We're always in search of balance on the brink of a possible...
Many thanks dear @bleujay for the principle! It's incredibly capacious and truthful!
Very beautiful photographs! You're great at translating the visual component of meanings!
My first thought when looking at the photographs:
It must necessarily break through the ice to the open space, because there, in front, there's something for which it needs to flow ...
Thank you for sharing the link. The post is perfectly complemented by the principle!
My best and sincere wishes!
Greetings @evgsk.
Appreciate you dropping by with your lovely words. ^__^
Your ponderance is beautifully composed and welcome.
Appreciate your kind wishes.
Wishing you all the best.
Cheers.
@bleujay, hi there :-)
I've been away for a while, few things happening out here in the real world, glad to see that your posts are as interesting and insightful as they have always been.
I hope that you are well :-)
Greetings @scottish01.
Appreciate you stopping by and your kind comment.
Yes...life does get in the way at times. Thank you for your kind wishes....all good here.
I do hope you meant insightful.... ^__^
Wishing you and your family all the best.
Cheers. Welcome back.......
Ooooooopppssss....have updated my post, when I was writing it, I didn't think that it was right...off course I meant insightful :-)
Thanks for the welcome and hope you are having a good day!
You never know...... ^__^
Truth never returns void......is the principle.
You gave me a smile...reminding me of this principle.....no worries. ^__^
Thank you for your kind wishes.........everything is coming along. bleujay is also posting under bentleycapital whenever work is available.....will say posting once a week is working out for one to have a life and Steemit.
Wishing you and yours all the best.....hugs to the little ones.
Cheers.
Good to hear from you.
Beautiful winterscape. Are you looking forward to springtime? I am. :)
I read @fyrstikken 's post. I would like some privacy on Steemit. I would like our wallets to be private for example. I don't share my bank account with anyone who wants to see it, so why would I open my wallet to let everyone see what's in it?
Money attracts people like bees to honey. And unfortunately a lot of connections are made based on wallet strength and rep strength.
If I could change something on Steemit it would be privacy with our wallets and net worth.
Thank you for your thoughtful reply @countrygirl.
It seems to be either that or stay anonymous.
It is appreciated when we hear from witnesses whether we agree with them or not.....otherwise how do we know who to cast our votes for.
Thank you for the compliment regarding the photographs.
Yes....indeed....Springtime is a favourite.....Steemit will be positively blooming.
Your Daffs were the first....bleujay has seen...Steemit will have bucket loads soon.
Wishing you and yours all the best.
Cheers.
I have to admit winter is not my season, but these shots look cozy to me :)
Freedom is the nature 🍃
Thank you for your kind reply @bassuniverse.
Appreciate hearing you found the post to your liking.....even though it is a wintery scene. ^__^
Cheers.
"Principle of the Day". A word that has a very profound meaning. Very beautiful photo @bleujay, I really like to see the beauty of nature. Honestly, you do have a very good talent, so your photo looks very beautiful. A very good job. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a wonderful day ... :)
Thank you for your kind reply @reynakarina.
Appreciate hearing you enjoyed the post.
Wishing you all the best.
Cheers.
Thanks again @bleujay, hope we can be friends, help each other and can share in Steemit. To be able to produce a work that is beneficial to many people, and can succeed in Steemit.
Cheers.
Stand or fall together. Let’s hope that the people choose to stand together and fight those that would take away our freedoms.Thanks for the great photos too. 🐓🐓
Greetings @mother2chicks.
Yes...let's hope so.
Appreciate you dropping by.
Thank you for your kind thoughts expressed.
Cheers.
My pleasure. Thank you for your kindness. 🐓🐓
Great principle because freedom is the supreme right for each person.
All your photos are Gorgeous and very impressive
Waiting for the next principle
My respects
Thank you for your kind reply @mister-dreamer.
Appreciate you stopping by.
All the best.
Cheers.
Very beautiful lanscape. It looks like a mountain river ( like in Carpathian mountains). Seems like you have a very nice weather there in your place. Great photos;)
Thank you @olgy-art.
Beautiful winter photography! Very refreshing and invigorating with lots of energy.
Your principle is so true but it is sad that many people are willing to exchange their privacy for speed and convenience. When they realized what they have lost, it is often too late! We can never over estimate the impact of losing our right and privacy.
Thank you for reminding us of this fact!
Cheers.
Thank you for dropping by.
Yes...it is true....
So happy to hear you enjoyed the post,
Cheers.
nice shoots, its beautiful the time between the ice and the water are working together in the winter.
Greetings @mariauizmx.

NB Welcome to Steemit.
very nice pictures :)
Thank you.
i just love the nature at this time of the year, nice shots
Thank you @lasper.
great post dear friend
Thank you @beautypics.
At this time it is falling apart where everyone is into each other privacy but thanks for sharing this principle so good to read this and see the pictures you shared with us all :)
Thank you for your thoughtful and kind reply.
This a very meaningful post @bleujay,Im glad I saw your blog today before I go to sleep. This principle holds a lot of value and gravity:
I totally agree that freedom is associated with privacy and privacy with freedom. When you value your privacy more than anything could make you understand the true meaning of freedom. If you are free then you could get all the privacy that you want .
Thank you for expressing your thoughts...all so true.
Youre welcome. Since we do have quite the same principles abour freedom and privacy I already followed you. Looking forward for another meaningful post @bleujay
Excellent message once again by you this week always admiring these principle these are very true and good shots to start the day with :)
Thank you @cityslicker....very kind of you to say so.
Love this principle and I agree with you 100%
I get some comments that are not so appreciated and I try to enlightening them and we all know what it's like to be new.
But some keep it up and then.... sorry bud!
Leave genuine comments that tells how that post made you feel.
Show support and engage.. that will pay off.
Begging for votes without effort.... Not cool will get many flags...
Absolutely amazing pictures and love the water with ice. I so wish for the spring... Lol
Have a wonderful week my friend and stay as you are 🤗cheers!
Thank you @saffisara.....you are too kind.
Lovely to hear from you....do hope you are feeling much improved. ^__^
Indeed.....one is not likely to forget the experience of being new at Steemit.
Very humourous......'sorry bud'.....it happens.....does it not.
Appreciate the compliments mon ami.....so glad you enjoyed the post.
Apprecite your kind wishes.
Wishing you a lovely and healthy week.
Cheers.
I cant think of anything more therapeutic for one's overall well-being than taking walks in Nature. Your winterscape photographs are indeed a delightful, welcome sight @bleujay especially after I was stuck indoors sick for several days last week.🌳
Freedom and the right to privacy tend to exist together in the same societies based on the same principles they tend to reinforce each other, and over the time they stand or fall together. As a result, when you surrender freedom, you surrender privacy as well. Very thought provoking post!
Hope you have a great week!😀
Greetings @ninahaskin.
Lovely to hear from you.....so sorry to hear you have been poorly....do hope you will soon be much improved.
Yes....you are quite correct in your comment.....thank you for expressing your thoughts.
Appreciate your kind wishes.
Wishing you all the best.
Cheers.
That's on point and very true but in today's age eveyone wanna go and have a look at other's personal life they all need to learn from this and respect everyone's privacy in this digital age everyone is born with freedom and they have the right to it :)
Thanks for sharing this and some really awesome and lovely pics you shared thanks for making my day more happier :)
Greetings @blazing.....lovely to 'see' you as always.
You are quite correct in your words with regard to the principle.....hang on to that thought. ^__^
So glad to hear you enjoyed the post.
All the best.
Cheers.
I really like your photo set!
It really expresses the feeling of freedom and of privacy, this water flowing in the open woods look so free, without humans directing it's water and polluting it.
Also - the location of that stream in such a lovely woods without too much company and with the woods sheltering it from preying eyes express the message pretty good!
Thank you for your thought-full reply @kivsha.
So glad to hear you enjoyed the post.
Cheers.

A very beautiful photo @bleujay, natural beauty does have many benefits for us. I really like the natural keidahan like mountains and beach, I think that place can be a faithful friend when we are stressed again and have many problems in this life. With us going to the place and enjoying the nature of nature, my soul feels calm and feels apart from all the burdens in my mind. I really like your snow photos, because in my country there is no snow. I really hope someday if I have the money, can vacation to a country that has snow. Thank you for sharing and hope you are more successful to work
Really nice photos @bleujay 👍🏼
Winters n autumn are beautiful . They give a message that spring is not far behind
