Sprouting times right now in the country, but it is inspiring too
the answer must be yes when it’s about to come out and get experiences from nature
but are life in the nature and country life inspired by the world outside their world..?
A typical image of a danish village, it looks like pure charming idyll and passion
you will be greeted in resounding high spring sunshine and roaring silence.
An empty church where people come about 3 times in their lives
to be baptized, their confirmation and funerals including their own.
A former farm with empty stables, where land is sold off to larger farms
some are inhabited by people who go to the city and their lives (work) there
virtually immediately it gets light and come back home when it’s allmost dark
other buildings becomes chargeable some quick other slowly.
An old merchant’s house, who can share experiences about the time
it was the focal point of life itself
where mighty business was done within its walls
local disputes was perhaps settled in front of the building
often in a crude way, but far more humane compared to “conflict resolutions” nowadays
and about magnificent love stories that started in the apple garden behind the building.
But no photos of danish villages and nature without wind turbines in the background
one must evolve over time and they are perhaps more natural than nature itself ..?
…..
Perhaps many of the villages will be brackets in the countryside
as our ancestors housing – the proud and adventurous vikings
where only the most resilient mounds that are left
there is grass become bushes and bushes become trees
but the “shadow” can still be seen – out there in the country.

Another weekly photo challenge theme: “Change“

Nice sentiment and well expressed, Drake 🙂

Thanks, really appreciates… 🙂
So true what you wrote about changes, not only in the nature and the life-style, but also in lives and history. The world around us is forever changing, It does not stop. We should stop to take the time to look a little closer, become more aware and more involved in our past and present.
Our eyes assume to see a “pretty’ picture, but what we see is actually just the surface. Can we tell that the beautiful house we are looking at pretty, as it is, is actually empty??? Can we see what joys or tragedies have taken place? No, i bet you it is like the question people ask today; HOW ARE YOU? The answer expected is FINE, most do not care to hear the worries or troubles. Also a sad change in our lives.

Thanks really appreciate your comment… 🙂
Yes the world change all the time – it’s great, but sometimes we can do the changes ourselves and not just follow as cattle… “lol”
True!
Beautiful Drake! 🙂

Thanks, really glad you agree with me… 🙂
Oh, it is kind of sad this story, Drake. At least there will still be some green plants popping up soon, as usual at spring.

I believe there’s a difference between the norwegian and the danish way of tackling these changes – the small communities in Norway works better than the danish… 🙂
There’s something nostalgic in your words….
You managed to transmit your feelings to us , thanks so much……

there’s come a time when we’ll miss it… 🙂 😉

I dont know what to say anyway. All i want to say.”GIVE ME THE OAAKKK!” Hahhahahah! Just great writing, Led. Are you a writer like… hmm…. Paulo Coelho?
#.sonofmountmalang
‘hahaha’ – I’m not a writer, not a photographer and not a “so many other things” – but I actually really like several of Paulo Coelho writings – mentioning “The Alchemist” is much to easy so “Eleven Minutes” and “The Pilgrimage”, “The Valkyries” and “The Manual of the Warrior of Light”… 🙂
I like The Alchemist” and “Eleven Minutes”. The others book… I’d like to say, i don’t like it:D.
I’d read better books and worse too… “lol”
Your words are always filled with wisdom and the pictures spoke volumes too! Great post!

#.barbara
Thanks – you’re right, life will always changes during time… 🙂
The changes you share in the countryside is, in a way, sad. To know that things are forgotten for something considered better. Great perspective and the photos really place me there with you.

In the so-called good old days people lived in cities with high walls around and the would outside these wall was dangerous people thought – so many moved for life in the countryside – and now people moved back for living in cities again – so the countryside probably become dangerous again… 😉
LOL ! That is so true. In South America, the walls in the cities have broken glass on top.
it isn’t fun to climb over them… “lol”
