These are some pretty massive trees in our backyard. Perspective is hard to see, but these are around 80 feet high, couple feet diameter. I didn't know #thicktrunktuesday is a thing, but happy to play along.

Well I have seen Troilus and Cressida
at The Globe. Bernard Shaw said "peculiarly relevant" since the First World War.
Stanley Wells concluded it is is "perhaps Shakespeare's most philosophical play." ❤️ these 'problem plays' The problem is we don't like reality.

I have ventured
Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders
This many summers in a sea of glory,
But far beyond my depth.

Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits and
Are melted into air, into thin air:
The Tempest

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Let me twine Mine arms about that body, where against My grained ash an hundred times hath broke And scarr'd the moon with splinters
