Principle of the Day

in #life7 years ago




Principle:  As emotion becomes paramount , rationality retreats.  An older saying; 'Passion supplanted his reason.'


.......original photography and editing by bleujay....with the assistance of Leonardo da Vinci drawing reprints in the background of the photographs.




























'Purple Passion Pansy'






Principles are timeless truths/concepts/proverbs for our ponderance.  


Thank you Steemit readers.  Cheers.

A kind note to all new Steemians......good manners and thoughtfulness of others will take you far....as for those who leave notes and links directing members to their site....and those who comment without an accompanying upvote.......please be advised this is not the Steemit way.  


bleujay does request that Steemians be so kind as to not leave gifs/photographs/etc. so as not to distract from the post......thank you.  


Welcome to Steemit.

Hey @bleujay, very good principle and perfectly reflect human nature, even though we all have emotions some people can not hold them in and we see those fire and flame emotions, but some people you can say they always calm but their explosions happens inside of them, like my mother says let it out otherwise it makes you sick. Because of that wonderful ability to express emotion and passion I love human being, I love to observe people and sometimes think how boring it would be if we would not have emotions or could be like Vulcanians in Star Trek.

You have beautiful pansies and the colors are so intense, by the why it is funny but in German we call pansy "Stiefmütterchen" that means "Little Stepmother", I do not know if you knew that.

That is because the large lower petal is the mother, the two large petals to either side of her are the well-dressed daughters, and the two small upper petals are the poor stepdaughters.

Have a nice weekend, Cheers from @Stef1

Thank you @stef1......always appreciate learning more regarding a subject.....how very interesting this flower's name in the German language.

Appreciate your kind wishes for the weekend........here's wishing you a lovely week. ^__^

Cheers.

hi ya mon ami

I hope everything is fine
I love the pics as always
so your pansies are already in bloom

here's just the tri- colored ones in purple white and yellow tones
the rest are still trying to grow no buds yet

I hope the emotions get to be controlled
once they overcome someone
regrets follow

regards !

Greetings dear @englishtchrivy.

Thank you for your lovely reply.....pansies in so many colours.....the small tri-coloured 'johnny pop-ups' are here as well.....such cheery flowers they are.

Thank you for your way of remembering the principle...'once they overcome someone, regrets follow' indeed.

All the best to you.

Internet here is not yet sorted.......perhaps by next week's end.......Steemit uses a lot of gig. ^__^

Here's wishing you a lovely weekend mon ami.

Cheers.

Beautiful photos dear

Thank you dear @beautypics.

Cheers.

Good principle! Wonderful artworks of beautiful flowers. It’s a great idea to have Leonardo da Vinci drawing reprints in the background. Well done, as always! ;)

Thank you for your kind words and compliments @tangmo.

Appreciate you stopping by as always. ^__^

Cheers.

You are much welcome!

All the best to you and your family! ;)

It will be good at times to go with the flow of your emotions rather than always trying to be practical and rationale. Your gut will most of the time take you in the right direction.
Beautiful pics of Purple pansy, I like this flower, the purple shade in white gives a wonderful combination.
Thank you for sharing

Thank you for your complimentary words.

Cheers.

Beautiful words to remember and some really stunning shots along with it wow : )

Thank you @blazing for your kind words.

As emotion becomes paramount , rationality retreats.

Yes, emotions can lead us astray. Some people more than others.

But what can you do? You can't live with them, you can't live without them. You can only try to ... outwit them.

Hi ya.....koskl.

Too humourous.....yes...let's out wit them.....meaning we have to use our grey cells....right?

Thank you for stopping by.

Cheers.....Ciao.

Happy faced pansies. They have the cutest little faces. Love the wild ones - I think we call them "johnny pop ups".

Great principle as always. The flip side to letting emotions rule, is letting the rational mind rule and muting the emotions. I think we need a balance of both. Sometimes a rational mind is necessary in some situations but a balance is good.

Emotions are too fleeting to be ruled by them.

I can't remember if you are a mother.....if so, Happy Mother's Day to you.

Thank you for dropping by @countrygirl.

Appreciate your kind wishes for a happy mother's day......here is hoping you had a lovely one as well.

All the best.

Cheers.

Is it the natural color of the flower or did you make it absorb some pigment?

Thank you for your query.

The natural colour of the flower it is.

Those were some great and amazing photos!
