  1. "Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."
    - T. S. Eliot

    Here I am at work. Inspired by poets like Jet Roland Holst, Emily Dickinson and Antjie Krog. These grand writers have led me to Nan Shepherd, T.S. Eliot and Paul Klee. Their #art and soul are the foundation for my upcoming project called 'NAN'.

    Here I am, a while ago, at my destination with my 32strings, while imagining a living mountain... 😉

  3. Letter translated from a #Macedonian post from the #AnimaMundi Facebook group, where in that country (#NorthMacedonia), stray dogs are common, neutering/spaying is sparse, and where poison is considered an acceptable remedy for the "stray dog problem". As is just dumping them up the mountains:

  4. CW: A dying dog, covered in flies.

    In #Macedonia, specifically #NorthMacedonia, you wouldn't find a lot of #vegans. Hell, you would be hard pressed to find many #vegetarians.

    But they do exist, and there is an organisation, called #AnimaMundi - An animal protection group, that I follow on Facebook. There is a sad bunch of posts that they post, mostly, pictures of abandoned #cats and #dogs, #strays, in need of a good loving home. Sadly, neutering/spaying is not commonly done there, and there isn't a lot of organisations capturing the strays that roam the streets in the towns and villages of the country. When winter comes, many sadly meet a cold freezing end.

    I was particularly struck by this poor black dog, their ribs showing, covered in flies, with a collar on, so it wasn't even a stray. The person who posted asked if anyone could take it in and save it. They sent an update to say that the dog has since died.

    In contrast, here in #Australia, I don't see dogs roaming the streets, though cats are still a problem. Of course, that doesn't change the fact that animal shelters are overflowing with unwanted animals (as I read about yesterday aus.social/@Pece/1102962782480), where their death may be necessary and merciful due to a lack of funding and resources, but a death all the same.

    I am so sorry poor doggy. You are in a place now where there is no pain. And yet, it is another creature I was unable to save. 😢
