Merci Neo, merci à toi Ferlin pour ces superbes photos.
Elle me font du bien et me rappelle que face à l'immensité de l'univers nous ne sommes que des poussières d'étoile.
Toutes ces photos venant de différents points du globe nous rappelle aussi que nous faisons partie, tous et toutes, d'une même grande et belle famille, l'humanité (avec quelques travers tout de même, c'est dans sa nature).
Seule, une poignée d'(in)humains ne regarde pas le monde de la même façon ; ils veulent juste l'exploiter pour leurs intérêts propres...jusqu'à l'anéantissement
<Et ce n'est pas du propre....c 'est pire que sale> les "salauds" qui veulent tout détruire, ,même notre faculté d’émerveillement et veulent nous transformer en robots... sans âme qui vive.
Mais les ânes que nous sommes n'avons pas encore perdu nos âmes !
Bisousss tout plein d'âmour à tous
