Be true to yourself, and take responsibility for making it happen, be bold about where you are going, be humble about where you are, be truthful about your present circumstances, be enthusiastic about your prospects for success. Seek out your limitations, and you will find you are limitless... What is a limitation? It is simply an agreement between you and yourself, or between you and others... limitations are there only if you and others agree to them. Change your mind and you will change theirs. It takes two to Tango. Lead with vision and enthusiasm and they will follow... You are welcome to contact me at: fetachi(at)gmail(dot)com Soon I will be adding more photos, sound and video.

I decided to take her to Solomon's pool. it is situated Just outside Jaffa gate, (at the foot of Mt. Zion where Solomon and King David is purported to be buried)

In mid action

This is a unique Greek statue because the weight is not shifted to one side or the other. The figure of Zeus (or Poseidon) has beeen caught mid action. This is the only statue to depict mid stride action.
