Praha (Prague) 3

One idiot is an idiot.
two idiots are two idiots
ten thousand idiots are a political party!

Hi dear people, at first I’m lucky that I can write my third part of my journey to Prague because my computer or better to say the interaction to the web was horribly slow! But anyhow with some tricks, I’ve got through (don’t yammer again! 😉

I began with Franz Kafka because it’s about our visit in Kafka’s museum and I have chosen one of his quote in German language (the translation has been subtitled 🙂 because, he wrote his scriptures all in German and it seems that some of them had been translated in Czech by Dora Dymant but they haven’t succeeded in the Czech Republic those days.

Of course, you’re laughing! But believe me, it was the entry behind these two funny statues standing there and … 😂

Anyway, I know Franz Kafka since I was about twenty-five, at first I have read “Process”, of course, translated in Persian and in such a situation the translator is almost as important as the writer him/herself. therefore, the first impression or effect was not so strong as I read the next one “The Metamorphosis” or The Transformation.

This book was translated by a Persian writer, the Persian writer, whom I much appreciated much; his name is Sadegh Hedayat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadegh_Hedayat

I would say I love him, he was and is the best Persian writer as I believe in, and he was so similar to Kafka as he writing such a protesting novel against the dictatorship of the Persian’s Shah regimes (the Father and the son) and in early 1951 in Paris commit suicide.

Sadegh Hedayat 1903-1951

Anyway, this book was the great thunder which hit my brain awakening to work! He has written his books mostly also in French.

This book was the one which shown me who Franz Kafka is and how he wrote about very simple people like me and you, who are confronting every day with the environment in our society and try to fix it.

His sibling

The Threshold The Messiah will arrive when we no longer need him; it reminded me of a novel by Dostoevsky; The Brothers Karamazov.

At the end I share an artwork of the head of Franz Kafka in Prague 🙂 have a beautiful Weekend ❤

THE FORGOTTEN DAUGHTER OF ZEUS

A celestial Song for a Goddess 💖😊🙏💖

Actually, They come all from the original ancient history!

Hi Friends. it’s a holiday today in some of the states in Germany (the catholic ones) not because of the Halloween but because of an old catholic ceremony to honoured the beloved ones who past away. The All Saint’s Day (here we call it Allerheiligen) it is a day to go to the cemeteries and remember of the loss.

I am at home to take the benefit of this but not going to the cemetery, not only because of my nonreligious opinion but surely for me it isn’t necessary to go to the cemetery to remember my beloved one, I have them in my heart and when I go there it’s just to look after if everything is okay!

So now the reason of my writing is that I read an article in The Conversation a very interesting Website about the very ceremony of today by catholic, is not their invention but originally the Aztecs had it in those days. https://theconversationus.cmail19.com/t/r-l-jddthkjt-uihidylylr-n/

In the older history; about Mary & Jesus and Isis & Horus

It’s really obvious as we look into the ancient history of mankind, we can find many similarities in between; for example, the famous Pieta(s) which isn’t found by the Christ on Mary’s lap:

with Egyptian Goddess Isis with her son Horus;

There are similar;

Eye of Horus Metaphysical

As we can find much more of these similarities in the past;

I have found it always exciting to look after our history and from where have been all come from? There must be something important in our ancient time which had influenced all through history until now.

Happy Halloween if celebrate it 🙂 💖💖

Is there anybody in there?

Pink Floyd is one of the biggest focus of my life. 😊🙏💖👍

CONFORTABLEMENT ENGOURDI
Hello, hello, hello, hello
Il y a quelqu’un là-dedans ?
Hoche la tête si tu peux m’entendre.
Il y a quelqu’un à la maison ?

Allez, allez, allez maintenant.
J’ai entendu dire que tu te sentais mal
Eh bien, je peux soulager ta douleur
Et te remettre sur pied

Relax, relax, relax, relax
J’ai d’abord besoin d’informations
Juste les faits de base
Peux-tu me montrer où ça fait mal ?

Il n’y a pas de douleur, tu t’éloignes.
La fumée d’un bateau lointain à l’horizon
Tu n’arrives que par vagues
Tes lèvres bougent, mais je n’entends pas ce que tu dis.
Quand j’étais enfant, j’avais de la fièvre.
Mes mains ressemblaient à deux ballons
Maintenant, j’ai de nouveau ce sentiment.
Je ne peux pas t’expliquer, tu ne comprendrais pas.
Ce n’est pas comme ça que je suis.
Je suis devenu confortablement engourdi

Je suis devenu confortablement engourdi

O.K…

The Spooky Tale of Stingy Jack

Standard

A little big story 😊🙏👍💖

Nifty Buckles Folklore's avatarNifty Buckles

Halloween/Samhain has arrived, before I share the Spooky Tale of Stingy Jack I’d like to share some slices of pumpkin wisdom with you. This is my favorite time of year when the green leaves turn into dazzling scarlet and harvest gold. Fiery Mountain Ash show off their orange and gold, wearing their burgundy berries peaking beneath sparse leaves.
Did you know these large orange gourds are fruit? A member of the gourd family Curcurbitacae pepo along with squash, gherkins, cucumbers and melons.
In 2018 Steve Geddes of Boscawen, New Hampshire, grew a great pumpkin weighing in at a whopping 2,528 pounds! That’s a pumpkin that would make Linus from the peanuts gang radiate with glee. According to Guinness World Records on-line, https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/largest-pie-pumpkin
The largest pumpkin pie weighs 1,678 kg (3,699 lb) and was made by New Bremen Giant Pumpkin Growers (USA) at New Bremen Pumpkinfest in New Bremen, Ohio…

Day In My Eyes

Standard

a Smile warmer than the morning Sun 💖🙏💕💖💖

yassie's avataryaskhan

Sweet and chaste
White mist of dawn
Tinseled dew glaze 
Blades of grass..
The day comes undone
A pastel embraced rush
Beguiling farewell to
The silence of sleep.
Midnight stars lull
To the sun-struck lilts of birds
Chrysanthemum clouds offer the moon 
A ride home..
On lyrical wings, gossamer.
A floral wind takes shape
In the green of leaves
Air fills with breath of flowers

I breathe into my dreams
Feeling the unfolding of my soul
I see your face draped by smiles

Your smile warmer than the morning sun.

Not sure why I have been hoarding this.

It’s far too, beautiful not to share.

It’s a very long, skinny and close to the ground piece, so I have to show you the image in 2 pano pics.

Some close ups.

Athena and Arachne

Standard

“Don’t eff with the ineffable.”

Likewise, don’t gloat over a Goddess.

Especially if she’s Greek…
A wonderful Tell, with ever Thanks 🙏🙏

MythCrafts Team's avatarMyth Crafts

Imagine this:

You are a shepherd’s daughter; from the time you were a child, you’ve worked the loom.

This is no longer work; it is pure art. It comes as naturally as breathing; it isn’t something you do.

It’s who your are. Your craft describes and defines you.

Some people can present their gifts with grace.

Others, not so much.

Your name is Arachne, and you are about to weave your own fate.

*

One of my favorite authors, the late great Robert Anton Wilson, once made a proclamation:

“Don’t eff with the ineffable.”

Likewise, don’t gloat over a Goddess.

Especially if she’s Greek…

*

Athena was the Goddess of War.

But she was also the Goddess of Arts and Crafts.

It was said that she sprang fully grown and armored from Zeus’ forehead.

Other tales recount that Zeus had swallowed Metis, Titaness of Wisdom.

After they had made love.
