Streets in the night

-

At night, streets get a new shine, human misery being swallowed up by the darkness. Gone, the workless or working poor looking in garbage containers for something to eat or sell, the disillusioned people next to the casino, the trash and filth on the ground, the dog waste... Moreover, the construction cranes are silent (you could think they spend the night far from here), and the number of people screaming, arguing, drilling, sawing, blasting bad music is gradually decreasing.

I love those dark hours in the fall and winter when my town looks like a better place.

September, finally! Temperatures are dropping (a bit, at least in the mornings and evenings), which is a good thing. We are even expecting some rain tomorrow.

End of the Year Again

I find it difficult to look back and to look forward because I am someone who lives in the present. Since I don't know what tomorrow will bring, I don't want to worry too much about what I will do, won't do or should avoid. But one thing is certain: in 2024, I will hold on, just as I did in 2023. Trying not to hurt others, trying to live reducing my carbon footprint. Living with eyes wide open to see beauty wherever it is. Making art out of it. May love and happiness be yours this holiday season! Water greens in Benalmádena (Andalusia, Spain) Shells on the beach in Benalmádena
