Hi friends ~ to thank you all I created a vase with flowers a few weeks ago. But hadn’t posted it yet.

Because the first was a bit cold I tried to change it to a better one.
~ Change the vase ~mingled colors
~ Add an orange tablecloth
~ Change the background to blue

But maybe some like the first better ?
Enjoy your favourite version ❤️💙🧡

Thank you ALL❣️ for everything ‼️
I am going to reply to everything right now until it’s done ❤️ #LOo 🫶🏼

duplicitous eyes
look at me then the floor, she's
scared I'll see her soul.

Most people leave when the position looks ugly.

Classical wisdom calls the refusal to exit Titiksha; the capacity to endure without losing position.

Preserving core energy is the ultimate strategy. Outlast the noise.

@SolSlopDev Hmmmm....hard G supremacy

[The Literary Leaf 🌿 @EngLiterature07]

How do you pronounce GIF?

Is it "jif" (soft G, like gym) or "gif" (hard G, like gift)?

[The Literary Leaf 🌿 @EngLiterature07]

@B_Chaos_ So you're on Steve's side , good

Lyrics of us keep me awake,
melody of touching in the trees,
kissing on the spider-web rope,
the words that caught inside my throat.
You have my mind.
This is my heart: fall asleep with me.

@UndawntdObsErvr Deep emotions, beautifully expressed ✨👌

[The Literary Leaf 🌿 @EngLiterature07]

@UndawntdObsErvr So you're Team Graphics

[The Literary Leaf 🌿 @EngLiterature07]

@codek_tv 45 is the correct answer

[The Literary Leaf 🌿 @EngLiterature07]

GIF creator Steve Wilhite preferred the soft-G pronunciation "jif" but the linguistic majority votes for "gif" with a hard G as in "graphics."

@Deepakxiqn Good morning bro 🌄

The Eternal Dance of Shiva and Shakti

The universe is forever seeking
The other half of its soul,
A dance of divine opposites,
Two forces making one whole.

Shiva, the stillness of consciousness,
Shakti, the energy of creation,
One the silence beneath existence,
The other its divine expression.

Throughout all of creation,
Their sacred union can be found,
In light and darkness,
In silence and sound.

In the meeting of opposites,
In the balance of you and me,
In the rhythm of all existence,
And the pulse of everything we see.

For consciousness needs energy
To bring its visions into light,
And energy needs consciousness
To give its purpose and direction right.

Neither is truly separate,
Neither exists in isolation.
Together they are the eternal dance
That gives birth to all creation.
