Moody Mondays and Moody Mountains.

Never the twain shall meet-Rudyard Kipling.
093.jpg

Twain means two in old English and two banks of clouds moved towards each other above the mountains from the East and West.

So the logical assumption is that they will meet and blend together into one big cloud. Kipling based his famous poem on the situation between England and India and for some reason I remembered the title of the poem when I saw the clouds moving towards each other.

You can read the Kipling poem as it is too long to place in here;

Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,
Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat;
But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth,
When two strong men stand face to face though they come from the ends of the earth!

So I waited to see what would happen.

It seemed possible here below that the two clouds would meet, as the gap was closing.

But then as they say, life happened, as they met but many open spots remained.

Now I will show you some other great shots ending with the Pegasus story.

Finally Pegasus (the mythical winged horse) came to inspect the territory of the battle before the hero Bellerophon mounted him.

The photo of Pegasus is mine and you can read the story of the battle in the Classical Greek Mythology. Or you can read some of it in the link below;

And that's it folks, yet another post of mine after my 5th year birthday on Hive. is done and I hope that you have liked the short stories. Oh and the pictures.
I debated if I should place the Pegasus story first in this post and then the twain shall meet story, but instead decided to combine the Kipling poem with Greek mythology.
Both are great stories and I tried to display them with my photos.

And That's All Friends.

It's always amazing to watch the clouds forming and building large structures and shapes of all kind - the dark clouds in the 5th image are my favourites 😀
I can see something in the last image, but to me it looks like something different from the Pegasus😉

Oh yes, only a bit of patience to set a target and to wait for the clouds to reach the target.
Thank you and yes that number 5 was nearly my first picture.

Not Pegasus? You cannot see the big head and the form of the wings behind it? At the right hand side of the photo?
I think that you are looking for a small mountain goat and that you cannot see the gestalt 🤣 !LOLZ

Cheers and thanks.

Would you believe me that when I was a kid the teachers wanted to send me to an art school because I've been very good at drawing, but I didn't want to leave home ... a few years later I have left it anyway and today I sometimes I regret the decision I have made back then. But then I think what might have been and that I would never have met my wife nor would I have these wonderful kids.

So, you should keep this drawing because it might be worth a lot one day ... if I had signed it 🤣 !LOLZ

So many missed opportunities in our lives my friend. In my first year after school I applied for a position as a technician at a big computer company. They sent me to college for 3 months and after I graduated they sent me into the city to go and work. The army called and they agreed that I could return after my period of army service. After the army I dropped them and went into the construction business.
Had I known about the future of computers I could have had a big computer hardware business today.

Yes I will keep it as I saw that it had some Michael Angelo qualities and your drawing is a real masterpiece in my mind 🤣 !LOLZ

Cheers and thanks.

Yep, but if you had not made these decisions you might be rich but not happy ... and that's why I really don't regret that I have done what I have done.

Now you're talking my language - keep it and you will not regret it ... of course you will also not regret it if you delete it 😂 !LOLZ

I also believe that and our paths were designed to lead us to our destinies. So no regrets also here as if I could do it again, I will prefer to do exactly the same thing.
Let me hasten to add minus all of the bad things 🙏

Ha! My intention is to frame it and to hang it on our lounge wall 🤣 !LOLZ

Cheers and thanks.

Yep, some things I also wouldn't do again, but all the rest would be just the same, I believe 😊

Cool, it's a big honour for me that my image is useful to keep unwanted insects or guest away 😂 !LOLZ

We are all fallible beings my friend and I bet that all of us would like to erase our mistakes of the past if given a chance, but sadly we have to live with it. At least it helped us to become better persons.

Insects, guests and even the doctor away 🤣 !LOLZ

Cheers and thanks.

We all should learn from our mistakes and become better people through them.

Especially the doctor should stay away. Tell me if it doesn't work because then I'll send you e second one, maybe with a turtle in the sky 😂 !LOLZ

That would be the ideal, but I am one of those that do not learn from some of my mistakes, as I am very forgetful so I just continue to suffer 🤣

Hahahah you are such a funny guy and I think that you guys have turtles in the sky that can fly 🤣 !LOLZ

Cheers and thanks.
