&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;When we get our whole world... &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Until the rest of our days I
will be your best friend.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;
I will share your moments, your days, and your years.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;I will
share your joys and sorrows, your successes and failures, your
dreams and your fears.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;When you are ill, I will take the best care
of you.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;When you need help, I will do all I can for you.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;
When you have a secret, I will keep it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;When you need advice, I
will give you the best advice.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;I will always be with you.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;When you
wake up in the morning, the first thing your eyes will see will be mine. During the day, I will be with you. If for a moment I am is
not with you, I will be thinking of you,
praying for you with all my heart, mind, and soul. When you go to
sleep at night, the last thing your eyes will see is mine and
when you are asleep you will still see me in your dreams.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;When I am your whole world and you are my whole world.

&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;"&lt;b&gt;Slinky Malinki&lt;/b&gt;
was blacker than black,
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;a stalking and lurking
adventurous cat.
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;He had bright yellow eyes,
a warbling wail
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;and a kink at the end
of his very long tail.

&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;He was cheeky and cheerful,
friendly and fun,
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;he'd chase after leaves
and he'd roll in the sun.

&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;But at night he was wicked
and fiendish and sly.
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Through moonlight and shadow
he'd prowl and he'd pry."&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5mO4ta1U8k0/Tr6zCSUdFPI/AAAAAAAAAvI/VhjCgmCwOoc/s1600/blogg.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5674169432392144114" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5mO4ta1U8k0/Tr6zCSUdFPI/AAAAAAAAAvI/VhjCgmCwOoc/s400/blogg.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 223px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Maybe you are never alone,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Maybe you never wander on your own,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Maybe you are walking in a forest, or by a peaceful river.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Angels always surround you, and maybe friends are always there.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
But maybe too dark a place makes it difficult &lt;em&gt;to see, to &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;not see&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt;To see&lt;/em&gt; what is &lt;em&gt;not there&lt;/em&gt;, and to &lt;em&gt;not see&lt;/em&gt; what is &lt;em&gt;there&lt;/em&gt;...&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Maybe someone lights up a candle just for you,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
and candle light goes a long long way,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
But candle lights dont last that long, do they?&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
And so if you must walk in a dark place, &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
maybe next time, bring the light with you.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-U4YQ_6hLnJU/TodcvzY75qI/AAAAAAAAAus/zfMWIysoXyg/s1600/Park-Bench.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658593433132721826" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-U4YQ_6hLnJU/TodcvzY75qI/AAAAAAAAAus/zfMWIysoXyg/s320/Park-Bench.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: right; height: 320px; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 214px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Out in a small rugged old town there is a park with alot of life. It has a park bench where two old friends once used to sit and both giggle and silent away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Towards the end of each day, a man sits on it alone. He listens to the birds whistle and sing, watches the children play and observes the people walking on the park trail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, surrounding the trail and bench wanders a little girl with starry curious eyes in the grassy field. She is seeking flowers, the first signs of spring flowers. People always tell her that it is far too early on and that she will never find any flowers, yet she keeps looking for them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unnoticed, this little girl walks up to the man and asks &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why are you talking to the wind?'.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He looks a little startled but shortly responds kindly &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;- 'Because the wind carries&amp;nbsp;prayers'&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And as the girl grew up, she carried that with her and nowadays the spring flowers are always there in time for her.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Often I have said &lt;em&gt;"I will not go on another journey, this road is beyond the heights of the earth". &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;And your grace ignites me, saying;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;'You are already on a journey my love..
&lt;br /&gt;Go my dearest, do not be afraid, my love will escort you. There shall be no danger to you. It is when you go into strange lands, you will have time to mature, then you will return with learning and accomplishment...'&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;My love&lt;/em&gt;, may I never journey without you!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Ariel, the little mermaid in the deep blue ocean had Everything! But she did not have Legs to walk on Land.&lt;br /&gt;She always wanted to walk up there with the others but as she desperately tried to, she would just splash her way in the dry sand as they laughed at her. Hence, she always returned to her ocean. But then someone came along and gave her the greatest gift of all, the gift of absolution. A pair of legs.

Reality can be heavy and challenging together with destiny that is unclear and hidden, but written in the stars. Also hidden, behind the moon in the light of the stars, the Dream and Love can give you courage and hope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;But on Love, should you dare to trust it? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out there in the moonlight where your destiny is hidden in hope and peace, maybe you can't see what awaits you, but at least it is written in the stars... You may never touch the stars, but if you follow them they will surely lead you. It may not be where you intended to go but will almost always end where you need to be. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8057794062778370655-2176884889587127823?l=pristinegirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://pristinegirl.blogspot.com/2011/07/destined.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Rebecca Hermon)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PAR1KphAnw8/ThXFPcCd6GI/AAAAAAAAAr8/S1B3MVv8PM4/s72-c/189632_202432606448654_110632372295345_683485_4347150_n.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057794062778370655.post-732035400664073186</guid><pubDate>Sun, 26 Jun 2011 08:26:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-06-26T22:17:23.661+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">figurative</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">authority</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">university</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">education</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">people</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">dark</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">reality</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">life</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">observation</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">medical school</category><title>Doctorhood</title><description>&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 389px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 264px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622618119093019970" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cR0mryQ0kb8/TgeNY7A25UI/AAAAAAAAAr0/lRFkU5gt1ZU/s400/doc.JPG" /&gt;First year of medical school was a whirlwind. To say you have a busy calendar feels like the biggest understatement of the century. Post high-school and upon entering medical school, perhaps you expect to meet compassionate people ready to save the world. People who are living somewhat healthier and more sophisticated lifestyles, without a la Société Dramatique... WRONG!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Turn the world up side down!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is like the coldest, merciless, and stormiest mood disorder. Nothing like highschool at all, but regressively more like kindergarden. In fact it is resembling of a Zoo. It is a doctor&lt;em&gt;hood&lt;/em&gt;. There are the flock of seaguls, the woodpeckers of mistrust, the night owls, the fierce cat family and the fish in the pond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for surviving (and) the immense amounts of knowledge one is required to learn, either you develop an &lt;strong&gt;allergy to failiure &lt;/strong&gt;or tolerance and apathy, the last virtues of a dying society.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8057794062778370655-732035400664073186?l=pristinegirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://pristinegirl.blogspot.com/2011/06/doctorhood.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Rebecca Hermon)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cR0mryQ0kb8/TgeNY7A25UI/AAAAAAAAAr0/lRFkU5gt1ZU/s72-c/doc.JPG" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057794062778370655.post-7308551837933191235</guid><pubDate>Mon, 13 Jun 2011 09:26:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-06-13T15:03:11.357+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">dreams</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">heart</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">emotions</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">courage</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">words</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">life</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">thought</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">love</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">writing</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">wise</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">mind</category><title>The armor of love</title><description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cUxGo4I2aOg/TfYE4svcrmI/AAAAAAAAArE/99CmY10gzqU/s1600/puppy_love_by_aimless_thing.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 386px; height: 272px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5617682957320629858" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cUxGo4I2aOg/TfYE4svcrmI/AAAAAAAAArE/99CmY10gzqU/s400/puppy_love_by_aimless_thing.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Love is with the one who soothens your mind, erases your fears, touches your heart, warmthens your cold, covers your wounds and protects your weakness.

Strawberries, cherries and tomatoes.&lt;/span&gt; Red for love, passion and fury. The color of strong emotions.

Because Red feeds &lt;em&gt;an emotional soul&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8057794062778370655-743897078683235627?l=pristinegirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://pristinegirl.blogspot.com/2011/06/soulfully-red.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Rebecca Hermon)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TUvvy4Sg1UI/AAAAAAAAAqQ/tsKdEruAXaQ/s72-c/fruits_strawberry_header.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057794062778370655.post-1451951475868346153</guid><pubDate>Tue, 24 May 2011 15:50:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-06-17T06:18:33.702+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">emotions</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">parenting</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">life</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">inner child</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">hope</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">love</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">children</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">writing</category><title>Mother-Daugther secrets</title><description>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRDcszkClRI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/e7cEdNeYte0/s1600/41141_423279248201_38051523201_5087811_5179471_n.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 377px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 254px" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5553181002861548818" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRDcszkClRI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/e7cEdNeYte0/s400/41141_423279248201_38051523201_5087811_5179471_n.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;A parent can plant a seed and watch it become a flower.&lt;br /&gt;Share a bit of experience and it becomes another's.&lt;br /&gt;Watch a child's smile widen and it become your mother's. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8057794062778370655-1451951475868346153?l=pristinegirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://pristinegirl.blogspot.com/2011/05/mother-daugther-secrets.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Rebecca Hermon)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRDcszkClRI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/e7cEdNeYte0/s72-c/41141_423279248201_38051523201_5087811_5179471_n.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057794062778370655.post-1848086701166856056</guid><pubDate>Sun, 10 Apr 2011 13:03:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-04-10T23:31:37.649+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">figurative</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">dreams</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">unhappy</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">symbolic</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">emotions</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">sorrow</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">dark</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">reality</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">life</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">poem</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">love</category><title>Waterfall of dreams</title><description>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nV8sYrwHTVg/TaIgf1D_9_I/AAAAAAAAAq4/s8XuOEKplgg/s1600/Water-Drop-Photography-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 325px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 203px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594069418339465202" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nV8sYrwHTVg/TaIgf1D_9_I/AAAAAAAAAq4/s8XuOEKplgg/s320/Water-Drop-Photography-1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;A porcelain cup painted with blossoms that touches lips which speak untruth, breaks its fragile shell into a thousand fragments.

The marionette's range of movement is unlimited. They have the capacity to go anywhere. However, bound to strings, the circumstances limit the marionettes. They may think they are in control for they do actually have legs. Only, the legs are not what allows them to walk. It is the hands of the pupeteers that do.

Towards the end of a year and the beggining of a new one, introspection seems to come naturally. And after a busy year concerned with aquiring self fulfillment, through beliefs of perfection, self adjustment fits appropriately. This time of the year is when action and re-action usually sets in. If not, the mirror will drown you in its swan lake and dwelling as well as feeding on air, poisoned by the old, will certainly kill you. The rigidness and reluctance to change along with its false safety inevitably holds you back. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ambivalence&lt;/em&gt; suggests strong feelings in opposition. The prefix is ambidextrous, which means &lt;em&gt;both&lt;/em&gt; and the rest of it means &lt;em&gt;vigour&lt;/em&gt;. The word suggests that you are &lt;em&gt;torn between two opposing courses of action. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;But you must make a choice.

Passing a clear blue sky free of clouds and an explosion of flowers in the colors of the rainbow... It leads to a place completely unexpected. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTGTQTA90I/AAAAAAAAAog/eamJ1cKEXU0/s1600/bild1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 151px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554282274549200706" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTGTQTA90I/AAAAAAAAAog/eamJ1cKEXU0/s200/bild1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;The surrounding houses there display great character and carry themselves so well. They stand as remainders of tradition, honor and excellence. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTJ7mRpEVI/AAAAAAAAApI/TZV0DZwYuoE/s1600/bild15.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTGdfYwyxI/AAAAAAAAAoo/rcB77JnMQXY/s1600/bild6.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 151px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554282450398530322" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTGdfYwyxI/AAAAAAAAAoo/rcB77JnMQXY/s200/bild6.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;After a longer gradual uphill or short steep staircase, you enter a park flourishing with diverse beauties. Of course the flowers are &lt;em&gt;blue&lt;/em&gt;, but at least laughter can be heard. During daytime the playground is occupied by energetic little ones, parkbenches of the early 19th century are occupied by ladies passionately discussing trivial matter and young boys (not at school) enjoying their youth. At night, mystic people and secrecies lurk in the park, which I have not really explored, but they are &lt;em&gt;eccentric&lt;/em&gt; and exciting. ~ An ambiance anything but bleak. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTIw7zyPfI/AAAAAAAAAo4/QiHE1BOoZ9k/s1600/bild19.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTIDx2sv5I/AAAAAAAAAow/3UdmQgrMUek/s1600/IMG_5121.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554284207702589330" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTIDx2sv5I/AAAAAAAAAow/3UdmQgrMUek/s200/IMG_5121.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Passing a river of sparkling blue water. There you find voluptuous trees, some with big branches and grand deep green leaves in all shapes. They usually leave a shaddow on the grass below them in the face of a bright summer sun. This is why people picknic underneath them, protected below from the burning sun by its leaf-branches. Although what strikes me the most is how massive the bridge is and begin to think how ironic it is that I have only passed the bridge by car and never actually walked over it myself...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Vi6FRU-c8qc/TRTJ73rXoqI/AAAAAAAAApQ/moj-YHRfqP4/s1600/bild18.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 200px;
