Draw The Line

This era is classified as the Latter Day of the Law.
There are similar prophecies in the Bible.

There are red moons and blue moons in the sky. There will be two suns.
We will not be able to tell truth from lies. The weather will be extreme and out of kilter.
There will be corruption, wars, famine, and disease. The rivers, land, and seas will be polluted, and food will not provide nutrition. (Major writings of Nichiren)12 C.
Already, we are seeing governments topple, ruthless dictators, and protestors being murdered.
We experienced lockdowns due to disease…Covid. There are wars and weapons of mass destruction.
Do we fully trust the use of technology? There are benefits, but do these outweigh the negatives?
The news here appears to be doom and gloom.

Recently, I was making a report when someone outside the police station in the town square was committing a robbery, brandishing a large knife. A guy came to the door, but his report was ignored. Our police are armed, but not one moved to apprehend
I risked my life leaving and spoke to the guy who had banged on the door, he tried to raise a report. He was shocked. 45 minutes later, the three police members came out to look for the robber who had, of course, disappeared, with not even a description.
One of our banks and some of its clients were hacked. We are warned…there are scam phone calls, so never answer your phone with a YES this may commit you to a payment of some sort.

Do you feel the police and courts are really doing a good job?
We are all from different places, so our views may differ.

We may even use humor to lighten matters, as below, but few are really confident about that.

Ah, they like dic taters!

Come and chat with friends, air your views, post memes, gifs, music, steer clear of politics and religion.
Most of all, enjoy.

An Adventurer for Travel, is that you? Do places hold romance and memories?

I discovered Turkey before it became popular.
My stepfather hated the place. I suppose I was a rebel. I had an invitation to go to Istanbul.
I suppose I was contrary too, my step father said…If you go to Turkey, you will get your throat cut!
I was on the next plane. In those days, airports were somewhat primatibe I didnt’t really know what to expect. When. I saw people climbing the wire mesh caging the airport. I was full of trepidation.
My first student was an older lady, and a teacher in Istanbul. She met me off the plane to my relief. She lived in Uskudar, quite a poor area but next to the sea. The Princess tower of Isandra is in Uskudar: built for the Princess as a fortune teller had told the Sultan his daughter would die from a snake bite. Her Prince swam to the tower every night with fruit and flowers, but in the fruit was an asp, and it bit her and she died.
Every night, we walked to the sea front to watch the sunsets, over the Bosphorus to the tower.
I suppose my stepfather, being in the navy, frequented bars and dangerous port stops where sailors got drunk or into fights.

I began a long romance with Istanbul and Turkey. People were polite, hospitable and kind.
We had to travel the coast to Izmir as my friend had a summer course to attend for teachers.
All science subjects were taught in English.

Of course, I wore a head scarf as a single lady and adapted to their culture.
Travel was by ship and coach, and took several days. We visited Efes, Bodrum and Kusadasi, which were fairly small in comparison to today.
One summer, I sold coats in Kusudesi to tourists, and traveled a bit more.

What were your best adventures? Did you enjoy your teens and twenties? I loved discos and nightclubs.
In Bodrum, where I stayed, there was an open-air disco on the cliff tops. And the restaurants and clubs in Istanbul are open to the Bosphorus sea,
Of course, belly dancers encouraged us all.
The sea and sun, white sandy beaches and open-air life are magic, plus invitations to yachts and swimming in blue seas. The east can be exciting in comparison to the cold English sea and gray skies.

Everywhere you go in Istanbul, you have Western music.

Where is your magic place, and your best memories?
My hometown is now considered dangerous at night, and I have to be more aware both night and day. Times appear to have changed,
I would not necessarily consider the immigrants responsible for any dangers after reading the local press.

So, post music, memes, and images that reflect good memories and chat with friends.
Most of all, enjoy!
Do you consider the world a different place?

And a very happy Valentine’s Day to everyone here at LFE!
Have a wonderful day with all those you love, four legs and two legs!

The Sweetest Moments…Friendship

A friend is what you are to me.
Love endures.

I can only count my true friends on one hand. When you get older both, I would say.
Above all, a friend never lets you down.

LOL

Seriously….
Old friends are like gold, new friends are like silver.
You can never fully repay a good friend.
Unfortunately, when you are older, you may lose your peer group or friends and only have memories left.
We cannot manage without friends or family.

My best friend was my collie, always there, faithful, and genuine,
He didnt care how much money was in my bank account. The most valuable present he gave me was his bone. A REAL SACRIFICE.
And the best thing about LFE is that we are friends here.

Tell us about your friends and how they may have helped you.
Do you still have old school friends? I lost touch many years ago. Sad.

There are lots of sayings, memes, songs, and experiences about friendship, so chat on LFE about your friends and experiences.
Enjoy and share.

Lian and Kieran
