attraction for the eye and the soul

There is a difference between the images my soul finds attractive and those that are attractive to my eye. I guess for the soul it has always been the same but not unleashed, and my eye, it changes what it likes.

"You will learn as you get older…that no [person] is perfect. Grown-ups are complicated creatures, full of quirks and secrets. Some have quirkier quirks and deeper secrets than others, but all of them, including one’s own parents, have two or three private habits hidden up their sleeves that would probably make you gasp if you knew about them."
Roald Dahl

Dss Markgräfliche Opernhaus is a Baroque opera house in Bayreuth, Bayern, Southern Germany, built in the 1740s. It is one of Europe’s few surviving theaters of the era. In 2012, it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was designed by Joseph Saint-Pierre, court builder of the Hohenzollern margrave Frederick of Brandenburg-Bayreuth and his wife Princess Wilhelmine of Prussia, and inaugurated on the occasion of the marriage of their daughter Elisabeth Fredericka Sophie with Duke Charles Eugene of Württemberg. The box theater is completely preserved in its original condition, except for the curtain which was taken by Napoleon’s troops on their march to the 1812 Russian campaign. The prince box was seldom used by the art-minded margravial couple, who preferred front-row seats. The theater closed in 2012 for extensive refurbishment was opened again in April 2018.

- I choose to live by choice, not by chance.

- I choose to make changes, not excuses.

- I choose to be motivated, not manipulated.

- I choose to be useful, not used.

- I choose to excel, not to compete.

- I choose self-esteem, not self-pity.

- I choose to listen to my inner voice, not the random opinions of others.
