Yes, same here. Work was a little busy so I was away from this platform.

Breathtaking!!

Wow. What an interesting idea!!

Beautiful 😍

I agree. My city is like that at the moment although our autumn colours are different.

Wow! The colours are so pretty.

Wow, thank you for sharing, Rosalind. Will listen to it.

I'll go through next module of the course I recently enrolled in.

Wow! These colours are so striking.

Very interesting.

Yes, I am happy to back, Ann. Pumpkin pie, and they also look like a pumpkin rise. The planet of the pumpkins 😂

They seem to have a mind of their own, on their way to somewhere.

Congratulations, @deborahlukovichphd.bsky.social!! So exciting.

Majestic beauty.

So beautiful 😍

The Meddler.

Brilliant! 🌸

‘Omar answers’
The wisdom of the wisest of the wise
Is but the pinch of powder in the eyes
Thrown by the fingers of the fiend, that we
True things from false may fail to recognise.

Thank you for recommending, Thea! I missed these 'conversations.' 🌸

I have this book in my reading list, and hopefully get it to soon :)

"Defenses are forms of narratives, created in imagination and fantasy to support a positive sense of identity and personal worth when these are threatened by cruelty, hostility or indifference from those on whom we are most dependent." | Archetype, Attachment, Analysis; Jean Knox

Wow! That's some interesting idea there.

Please take care, my friend.

"Wishes! Desires! What does life know about them? Life urges and pushes forward and it has its mighty nature into which we stare with our waiting eyes." | The Poet's Guide to Life, Rainer Maria Rilke

Wow! That looks straight out of the imaginal realm.

"It is an identification with the loved/hated other – through incorporation, introjection, projection – that is effected by the taking into oneself of an ideal, sublime, part or trait of the other and that becomes the tyrannical inner judge." | Strangers to Ourselves, Julia Kristeva

The self – wounded, incomplete, empty, is felt to have a fundamental flaw, a congenital deficiency. Such logic presupposes a severe super-ego and a complex dialectic of idealization and devalorization, both of self and other."
