Hot Summer and a Magpie

in #travel7 years ago

The most important thing in our life is a our ordinary daily life.
We can enjoy our common daily life peacefully in a very narrow circumstnaces.

Around the Korean Peninsula, the words relating the war are spoken by mad north korean young leader Kim Jeong Eun. On the neswpaper the analisys articles were written.

I 'd like to continue my posting peacefully.
But if that mad guy threat our peace, I will take my gun and sword aginst mad guy for our children.

Today I am posting with my earnest hope to continue and enjoy this some boring and not a special daily life.

It was really hot summer.
I had been wandering for several days near the East Gate. There were so many things around the East Gate.

Near East Gate I was looking around the water gate which had been built 600 years ago.

It was well preserved even though it was located in the center of Seoul city. It had been outside area of the Seoul, but The area of watergate became the center of Seoul as Seoul was getting bigger.
The watergate was connected to the wall

As walking along the wall, I saw a magpie sitting in the middle of the tree.

A little boy was taking a photo of magppie. It was really hot summer, so the magpie seemed to escape from heat.

The magpie is a resident bird in Korea.
The magpie is believed very clever. The know how to escape from hot summer.

I took close photos of the magpie.

It was too hot to continue to trek the Seoul.
As soon as taking the photo of the magpie, I returned to home to rest.

Upvoted!

I wish you peace and happiness.

Showing you kindness and I hope you can show kindness back to me.

Peace!

yes I agree, the ordinary life is that what is making our life so special, even a breakfast ritual, like my butter and jam bread , I just love it :) how much degrees were it today in Seoul?

normal weather
thank you

Man i always enjoy reading your post and watching capture in pictures. you such a good writer and photograph. thanks for taking your time posting your work on steemit

Thank you for reading

take a lesson from the magpie and the little boy, @slowwalker.

When threatened with storms or oppressive heat, the wise magpie seeks shelter and doesn't panic or fly away even when the boy comes near...and sometimes boys possess dangerous toys :)

I was impressed with the construction details of the water gate - the boulders lined the bottom so the flow of water would not erode the soil and the water gate would last, as indeed, it has.

I am glad you can take solace in the routines of daily life amidst the gathering storm that threatens the region. I leave you with this encouragement, my friend:

I am not concerned with great matters
or with subjects too difficult for me.
Instead, I am content and at peace.
As a child lies quietly in its mother's arms,
so my heart is quiet within me.
trust in God
now and forever!

Thank you so much as always

Beautiful bridge it has a sense of roman empire, i really like to see nature in the middle of buildings.

@progressivechef

Do not use gun with gun, no one win war. Young people are send to die.

I would like to take a picture of this bridge, It looks strangely interesting.

This bird is very often I see in the forest, in the language of Aceh this bird is called ''cici''
