Imagine....................


Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one..


Thanks s0 much Francesca of Rome, Italy..:)

Legend of the Myrtle Tree..


very nice, is it..:-)
Thanks so much Mingshu.

America's most beautiful haardwood, used in variety of gift items, comes from the Myrtle tree which grows profusely in Southwestern Oregon.
The colour of the wood is unique, varying from sedate, satiny grey to riotously, multicoloured grains of red, yellow and brown. The grain has many burls which gives it swirling and greatly varying texture, each piece characteristic and yet beautifully different.

Sipadan Island - Sabah Malaysia


originally uploaded by Carol PostCrossing Journey.

Vote for Sipadan, to be the next new7wonders of Nature!
http://www.votesipadan.com/


Sipadan is the only oceanic island in Malaysia, rising 600 m from the seabed. It is in the Celebes Sea, east of the town of Tawau and off the coast of eastern Malaysia. It was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct volcanic cone, and took thousands of years to develop. Sipadan is located at the heart of the Indo-Pacific basin, the center of one of the richest marine habitats in the world. More than 3,000 species of fish and hundreds of coral species have been classified in this ecosystem.

Taiping Lake Garden

The Hill of Crosses - Lithuania


The Hill of Crosses,located 12 kilometers north of the small industrial city of Siauliai (pronounced shoo-lay) is the Lithuanian national pilgrimage center. Standing upon a small hill are many hundreds of thousands of crosses that represent Christian devotion and a memorial to Lithuanian national identity.
The reputation of the sacred hill has spread all over the world and every year it is visited by many thousands of pilgrims. Pope John Paul II visited the Hill of Crosses in September of 1993.
The size and variety of crosses is as amazing as their number. Beautifully carved out of wood or sculpted from metal, the crosses range from three meters tall to the countless tiny examples hanging profusely upon the larger crosses. An hour spent upon the sacred hill will reveal crosses brought by Christian pilgrims from all around the world. Rosaries, pictures of Jesus and the saints, and photographs of Lithuanian patriots also decorate the larger crosses. On windy days breezes blowing through the forest of crosses and hanging rosaries produces a uniquely beautiful music.
