Lately, there are too many things bothering me, those who have been reading my posts may already knew some of them.
I need some positive energy to get back into blogging, but before that I can only retrieve some photos and prepare some quick posts.
The images we got from Angkor Wat are just amazing. Given that many of the structures were built from stone blocks and stacked together, some of the resulting structures can be quite angular too.
Here is an example.
Please enjoy!
Angkor Wat looks just amazing. I really want to go there one day 🙂
I’m sure you will like it!
I’ve seen this place on so many shows – what a great history and what a magical place
Glad that you enjoy the post and the place!
Sometimes we need to just let go of things like blogging and rest. I do find that looking back through photos is good therapy, as well as going out and snapping a few photos of the beauty of nature right outside my door. Take care of yourself.
Many thanks, Angeline! Will do as told. Regards, Michael
Lovely shot. Make sure that you take time for yourself – your loyal followers will be ready when you return to your full positive self.
Many thanks for the kind thoughts and loyalty!
How are things going for your Mom? So hopeful all is improving. Best wishes!
Hi Sue, my mom has just been discharged from the hospital today, after staying there for 11 days; I will provide an update later! Regards, Michael
I hope life becomes smoother for you and your loved ones soon.
Many thanks for the well wishes! Regards, Michael
Aloha, Michael! It’s O.K. to slow down for a needed rest! I was forced to ‘rest’ when I had to restrict my activities after a bad fall just over 3 weeks ago. Only now on my feet getting around slowly. Take care of yourself; your blogsite will still be here with your many wonderful posts! God bless you!

Hi Liz, sorry to learn about your fall, I hope you will recover soon. I am glad to have the good thoughts and blessings from you, from someone who is so close to the Lord. Regards, Michael

I hope your mom is OK, Michael.

Beautiful! Looking forward to more posts! 🙂
Sure, I will share more images!
The thing I love about Angkor Wat is that there is no interruption, no discontinuity, between the natural world, the human world, the divine world. Some might feel loss, that men worked so hard to honor the gods only to have their work pulled apart by time and reclaimed by wilderness. But I see peace, devotion, and reconciliation and ultimately all of these things in balance; perhaps that’s what makes the place so supremely peaceful and yet also energizing. I hope it gives you the peace and energy you need!
You have put it very well. Thank you for the kind thoughts!
A great image, as are the others I’ve seen on your blog before. I wish you the best with everything going on.
many thanks for the good wishes! Regards, Michael
beautiful!

Thank you!
Hope your mother is doing well at home. Take care.
Mom has just got out from the hospital today, I hope with God’s mercy she will be doing well. Regards, Michael
Great pic Michael. As you may know I’ve been away for a while, I needed the break and I’m feeling better. Sometimes you just have to let go.
Cheers
Laurie.
Hi Laurie, no wonder that I did not receive responses from you lately. Welcome back!
I find blogging reviews of books I have read to be a creative release. I don’t feel compelled to do it and certainly don’t do it daily. It would be work. Perhaps not blogging daily for a while or subsequently will free you to feel better and attend to your mom and other concerns that may be troubling you. Then again, take a walk in the woods and listen to a chorus of birds. Smile.
Many thanks for the advice! Will try to do as advised. Many thanks, Michael
all the best 🙂
Thank you, Lisa!
Ankor Wat looks such a beautiful place in your photos, Michael. Best Wishes, Peggy.
Thank you, Peggy!
Its now been six months since I visited Angkor. I couldnt find the words at the time, nor can I now, to express just how deeply the place affected me. It had been a long term goal to visit, and I can still remember it coming into view across the lake, but still can’t put into words the sensations I felt.
A truly wonderful, magical, mystical almost mythical place and strangely I was only looking at my photos and blog posts last night.
I like how you describe your feelings and sensation about this place. Regards, Michael
Let your feelings guide you…if you need a break to catch up on life’s challenges, or just need to refresh yourself, just do it. Step back and concentrate on those things that are most important like family, friends and self….sometimes self first so you can be there for others. Still following and loving your photos and stories, but understanding where your heart is……Blessings.
Many thanks for the advice which is well timed! Regards, Michael
I always enjoy your posts and seeing the world through your lens. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Many thanks for following me!
Yea, sometime it seen hard to write even with so many photos and sweet memories of beautiful places….Have a Merry Christmas, my friend.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too!
Great photo, loved my time wandering the ruins, it really takes your imagination badk i time.
Glad that you like the trip and the photo!
