I am haunted in this holiday season by the opening lines of Charles Dickens’s A Tale of Two Cities, his novel about a society 250 years ago coming apart in its seemingly irreconcilable divisions. Could it be these lines define where we have come to find ourselves today?
“It was the best of times,
it was the worst of times,
in the age of wisdom,
it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief,
it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light,
it was the season of Darkness,
it was the spring of hope,
it was the winter of despair…”
ur own epoch is one of the tec
A few days ago, when I was at open field work in another city 200km away from Warsaw, working as off-road/trail photographer as usually- I got a call about a husky dog in desperate need that is located in MY area. Fully starved dog (just bones), having severe skin issues, bleeding and leaking mold off from skin and fur is falling off found on streets laying down- and needs immediate health attention. I'm not anymore active volunteer in my animal rescue foundation due to life changes, but my instincts of rescuing animals came back. I've responded to the animal foundation and took responsibility of picking up and transporting a husky in need.

Marching Men in High Heeled Shoes by RavensQuill, journal
Marching Men in High Heeled Shoes
I know the title seems funny. After all, the sight of over 100 men from all walks of life, ages and races marching down the streets of my town wearing stilettos, I'll admit, is quite comical. Some even took it a bit further, not only wearing fancy foot wear, but the skirts to match. Yes, it was a strange and silly picture.
At least at first glance. While many might have been focused on the flash of leg and red heels, if you noticed the shirts they were wearing, and the signs they held, it became obvious this was not a march to laugh at.
"Stop Sexual Violence"
"No means No!"
"Rape Hurts All of Us"
