One of mine is Burns
"Lang may yer lum reek wi stolen coal"
Or in other word
Long may your chimney smoke with coal of the beach
As the pit owners had made it illegal to collect coal waste that may wash up on the beach from loading ships or dumping the spillage from mining.
Churchill, " it is no use saying, we are doing our best, you have got to succeed in doing what is necessary." ☺
Hi Bobcut
Another Churchill If a men has enemies its a good thing
It means at least once in his life he stood up for something he believed in
He was a very deep thinker as as a great motivator
You are a night owl then
Peace and Tranquillity

Yes there are a few of us that sleep on and off all night, sometimes Lynne or Zoonie put a night owls post up that have been quite popular. ☺
Yes Churchill, he seemed to believe what he was saying, it appeared genuine as though he was giving a piece of himself in every word he spoke. ☺
Hi
just had a doze
Churchil was that great believer he did some remarkable stuff in bore wars then got a bit shafted politically as he did after the war been chatting with Lynn a first for me.
Brilliant xx
I love the witches chorus from Macbeth when shall we three meet again, in thunder lightning or in rain, etc i love this part as it sets the play and tells you the plot lol xxxx
"Lang may yer Lum reek wi ither folks coal"
Means wishing you good health, wealth & happiness.
New year in Scotland traditional first footers bring a lump of coal & should be dark haired & handsome 😂😂
A man has a dream Martin Luther King x
"Back tae auld claes & cauld purritch." Translation for non-Scots: back to old clothes & cold porridge. Meaning: having to economise after an extravagance eg holiday, Christmas etc

“Nature never did betray the heart that loved her.” William Wordsworth. 🌸🌱🌸🌱
Hi Magic Tree
That is Lovely and one I will not forget
Wordsworth a quote in his own name I always think
"What are Words worth" ❓
The conviction they are said with.
Love and majestic grace to you
MaxV4 xx
I like that so much it made me think
Nature is that seed that love planted
“The rainbows of life, follow the storm.” ⛈ ☔️ 🌈
Perhaps even
Nature is the seed that love planted then nurture grew strong

My hubby found one a few months back that was performed by a group that harmonized it and the results was soul touching mesmerizing.
😊🙏🤗💖😘😇🕊
Hi shy Max 😊🌿🌸🦋
Thank you soooo very much for that touching song. I do love it.
No...this world is too full of Evil. As long as self serving people and greed are placed above the welfare of humanity and this damaged planet we live on it will not survive.
It’s heartbreaking to face this truth.
What do you think about it??
Love and prayers.

Hi I prey I may be wrong but Greed rules so many heart less souls and greed always wants more its such a shame. Power money and greed have no Soul of worth.
We do need people at the helm of life its just the greed people pull the string and corrupt.
Bob Dylan
All those of you who must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
who despise their job their destiny
Speak jealously of those that at free
Do what they do just to be
Nothing more than something they invest in. xxx
I was Born and raised in the forces I salute your brave country men for their sacrifice.
Its a great song that version gives me tears every time.
Love to you across the water
GC xxx
I gazed upon the images of those brave men and women and wondered how many made it back home.
How many were able to live a productive life and how many succumbed to the torment of their service.
My hubby never saw action but the experience destroyed at least 30 years of our lives.
He was a homebody and forced to leave this country in war time it left him scarred.
Had he seen action and survived to come home he never would have recovered.
I think of all who served and were lost in wars that were abandoned and how those precious lives were sacrificed for naught. It breaks my heart.
I’m proud of everyone who serves every day. Their sacrifice is what gives us our privilege of Freedom; which Ihas the most expensive price tag.
I hold them all close to my heart.
EJ 😊🙏🤗💖😘🌿🌸🦋🕊
I think the pictures were all of souls that never made it home to loved ones.
Such a crime.
Such great Great sacrifice for our freedom so true
Peace be the order of the day and I prey the world may be a better place for the global enemy we all now face .
Love to you and yours
GC xxx
Yes we do need compassionate strong leaders. Those who care about others and what’s best for countrymen/women nations and planet.
Pity some of us don’t have that anymore.
