Weekly Photo Challenge: RESOLVED

When I first saw this week’s photo challenge theme I was resolved not to participate, but then I changed my mind :D .

Here are some snaps of the street demonstrations in Rome which I witnessed in late November last year. This group of young people were resolved to change their government and they managed to do so.

I wish my people were this resolved.

Here is the tune to listen….

    “Buddy you’re a boy make a big noise” ‘hahaha’
    - just like ducks or even drakes… :-) ;-)

    The italian boys and girls did it with great sense – impressive – and very understandable that they got enough of the system’s self-satisfaction.. :-)

    Your usual energy,here!

  5. buen trabajo! i love this post and have one about the bahia de caraquez ‘march’ that will compliment yours! finishing work on a fence trumps posts right now, and one more is in line ahead of that one… i love this post, though, and i love how you captured the spirit of that group! z

    The energy of change – how exciting and always so good to witness. Well done Paula! Perhaps you can start the movement where you are . . .

    • Paula says:

      I appreciate your support Patti :) We’ll see… I’d rather not have any reason to rebel and enjoy my time somewhere quietly on some Italian lake :)

    I agree… the only danger is when educated youth topple a government and then the uneducated religious hi-jack their revolution… point & case: Egypt! I was so happy for them but so disappointed to see how its turning out to be right now. I’m hopeful that one day they’ll get corrected.

    BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
