According to Buddha
A human being is an animal, a part of nature. But we single ourselves out from the rest of nature. We classify other animals and living beings as nature, as if we ourselves are not part of it. Then we pose the question, “How should I deal with Nature?” We should deal with nature the way we deal with ourselves. Harming nature is harming ourselves, and vice versa.

‘don’t feed the bears’ Banff National Park~ fotos by f.fynebuik ~ circa 1958 ~ January 2020
So very true!
good to know Trevor and Georgina ☺️🤓 appreciate you saying ~ smiles hedy ☺️💫
Good words; nice song! 🙂
Thank you kindly Harrie 🤓☺️ yes I’ve always appreciated the talking heads ~ smiles hedy ☺️🙂🙃
These are awesome, Hedy. And so true. Have a great week ahead.
☺️🤓🙃🙂 at the coast with the wee starseed 👼 it’s joyful! hoping you’ve had a productive and joyful week as well Chris ~ smiles hedy ☺️
Wise words from Buddha.
Thank you kindly Vicki…oh those Buddhas have a lot to day…☺️🤓😉🙃🙂 smiles hedy ☺️
Sometimes we are an uncontrollable animal still unable to keep our tongue in check,
holding back all those thoughts that only an animal could have.
yup I’ve had my hedy rants…🤓☺️ thank you kindly Eddie 🤗💙
We live under the delusion that we can control nature, and are therefore above it.
Oh my, Hedy. What a set of photos. We are all connected and we should never feel superior to animals!
indeed Jane…and yes fun fotos for me to find from my parents ☺️🤓 have a creative day ~ smiles hedy ☺️
What great old photos. #3 is kinda the definition of a bad idea…in most circumstances…
I know right Johnny…I can see my father being a cautious new immigrant…I don’t know the story but it was from before I was born…☺️🤓
Excellent quote from Buddha, we must all learn this lesson, live our lives in harmony with all things never forget it. I must ask are these family photographs? They are great and actually bring memories of my childhood traveling. Have a wonderful week my friend.
I’m with the starseed👼…and at the coast…it’s beautiful and good to be away…many hugs and smiles Terry ☺️💫🤗
Have wonderful adventure.
Good question. Nice photos.
I know right Alex? Thank you kindly for your comments…hoping you are well Alex ☺️🤗❣️ smiles hedy
Yes. Don’t feed the bears… 🙂 (Or the morons that pretend to rule us…) 😉
this was just before 1960…and yes humans are slow learners…I want to believe we are more evolved…we each do our own work…who wants to boss humans around anyways 😉🙃🙂
Boss humans around? A good question. I had to in my own company. One rule: if you treat people like humans some will eventually behave as such. 😉 plitics? I was in student politics in France and the US. Resigned after a while. Couldn’t take the permanent lies. I did form a Market research society here. Still politics but I enjoyed it.
Ee each donour own work indeed. Be good Hedy. (How are you holding up?)
I’m at the coast…being away helps of course next week I will plan my mothers celebration of life for February 20…I have some moments of course 😔☺️💫 and so much makes little sense to me in our political world albeit everything is political 🤓 of course we can do better, right! Hugs ☺️🤓🤗
A celebration of life is a nice thing to plan.
(as for the sense or lack thereof… I think of Camus…)
I’ve implicated everyone I can 🤓☺️ the grandchildren have stepped up 🤗indeed death can be all consuming…until the spirit feels as though they are walking beside me…I’m glad we’ve taken our time and made the celebration work for us…it will lovely…got a harpist…my mother believed in angels 🤓🙃🙂
Mexicans make a big celebration of it. Sometimes too much for Westerners…
Glad the grandchildren have stepped up.
The harpist is a nice touch… 🙂 from MX
I want a big party when I die 🤓 and I gave the children very little wiggle room ☺️😉🙏
Clear instructions should always be given… 🙂
(How many children do you have? I may have asked but forgot…)
Indeed and write one’s own obituary also a good exercise I’d say 🤔🤓 we have one…and I’m also the rowdy aunt 😉🙃🙂
🙂
LOvely vintage pictures BTW. Part of your family archive?
well it was a hidden treasure actually…my parents rarely spoke of their his/herstories…I found a plastic bag of vintage fotos…some I will never know the story…but fun to see and share with my cousins in the Netherlands…I must get there to do my research…I’m pining to do this work 🤓☺️ and I will!
A treasure bag of vintage photos. Wow. No pencil markings on the back? Di you still have uncles or aunts? Older cousins? This will be a fantastic research. Best wishes.
A few do but my mother was the last…she was the youngest…and yes I will research more for sure 🤓☺️
