5/19 My heart is tired…

My heart is so tired 

This past week has been so much death in my family

An of cores you leave me when i really needed you. Again

I gave you everything an got nothing in return, but a broken heart that doesn’t seem to be healing    

People have seem to always come to me for advice or help with generally  anything they look to me for strength an know that even after all i have been through I still have strength to carry on

But these days

I cant, I dont know what im doing with my life, its getting harder an harder everyday to get out of bed,Even harder to find a reason, an the one reason is gone. Again

I just with someone would hold me an tell me its gona be ok, it will work it’s self out in the end 

But i guess I have to go it alone. Again

I have nothing to prove anymore, I have proven myself so many times and by myself with no one believing me but myself an everyone saying it cant be done

But i dont know if i can do it anymore    

My heart is so tired

Lord, I never complain, I never ask, Why Please don’t let my dreams run dry

This little church was once called St. Luke Baptist Church but nicknamed Little Zion. It was built by and for the African American slaves in 1883. The land was once part of the Cleona Plantation. It became abandoned in the early part of 1970. The pastor retired and the people started attending other local churches. I went back there not long ago to take more photos. I was very sad to see that this old church had completely collapsed! I’m just grateful that I was able to photograph it a few times while it was still standing.

The Chained Library of Zutphen

I took these pictures during a visit to the 16th-century chained library of Zutphen, in the east of the Netherlands. It is one of three such libraries still in existence in Europe. Nothing much has changed here for 550 years.

Here is more information (in English) on the chained library in Zutphen. Also check out this recent blog on medieval chained libraries (and Zutphen’s), written by one of the researchers in my project. 

This is fucking cool must go before i die (\_/)

The Arm of Liberty, 1876-1882

  ‘The arm and torch of the Statue of Liberty in Madison Square Park, New York. These portions of the Statue were exhibited to raise funds for the completion of the statue and its pedestal. The arm and torch remained in the park from 1876 until 1882.

‘Members of the public could pay fifty cents to climb to the balcony of the torch.’
