It´s actually two different catherdrals. And, yes, I have been spending much more time in than is usual.
Ahh. Both in Passau. Lovely.

Touching collage…touching emotions potrayed
Awwww, so Kind.
Peace to you, too, Cindy. Praying for all of us as we are all affected. Thanks for the gorgeous photos.
We are all affected, for “we are involved in mankind.”
These are gorgeous, and peaceful. I especially feel the reverence of the church photos, Cindy, and that tiered landscaping is amazing. What calm water!!
I am so pleased these Images conveyed their power to you.
These images have nice calming effect we all need in these turbulent times. Keep up the good work.

Danke mein Freund!
What a wonderful thought – to show peace – away from all the disturbing images we have seen
And These buidings, bridges and churches have withstood hundreds oof years of wars.
Beautiful Cindy, both in photos and thoughts. Thank you. –Curt
Thank you Curt for seeing and feeling~
Cindy thank you! I think we all needed these wonderful photographs, and the peace.
Images of peaceful endurance during all human folly. Yes, we need this. Thank you.
Peace to you.
Solid, reliable and inspiring. 🙂
Perfectly perceived.
Truly beautiful serene photos. 😀
The beauty of the endurance of the human Spirit.
Such a timely post and beautiful, awe-inspiring images once again Cindy! This is the world as it should be – where people can create amazing beauty and enjoy it. Wow, I’m really inspired to see Germany one day, thanks to you! <3 ~Lynn
I was so impressed that many of these churches have withstood hundreds of years of war.
Yes, that’s right! We’re so blessed to have them after all that’s happened in the world.
All that traquility is even more beautiful in these tutnulent days.
Some of These churches have withstood the mayhem of men for 900 years.
Peace on earth..maybe if we all wish as hard as we can and try in our own way it will change eventually but has to come from us ..not politician and warmongers….we can but try and your pictures are a step forward…..Peace and love to you 🙂
Beautiful words from a beautiful Person.

Beautiful! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful peaceful images, Cindy. Necessary!
Hope springs eternal…….Be well Ruth.
Wonderful peaceful photos for this troubled time. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for understanding and receiving!
No peace is not eternal, but every day is a blessing that extends peace. Kaj Munk in Cannes Before (1943)
Oh how powerful and how moving! Thank you for sharing this!
In this system of things or at the present times there is no continuing peace but we can have the hope and count on the give promise that once we shall be able to receive eternal peace for those who lived according to the Laws of God.
Beautiful images again from you and difficult times for so many. I guess we always hope for peace but we have to somehow ‘do’ peace. Much harder but hope real stability can be brought about.
Yes, I share your concerns about human inability to coexist peacefully, and your hopes that we learn!
Thank you for sharing these lovely photos, Cindy, reminding us of that elusive peace. Happy Thanksgiving to you!
And to you and yours my friend and be well~
Thank you, Cindy! 🙂
Unfortunately, I am not confident about seeing peace in the world for many decades ahead if at all.
I hear you and share your worries.
Very beautiful Cindy 😀
Thanks Irene and be well my friend~

WP keeps making changes and apparently has made some changes to the Reader –
which I don’t use, though I know some of my friends do. If I posted at 2am you might see me in your reader too. But the earliest I do is about 6:30am during the week and later on the weekends.
Lovely photos and safe travels, Jules
Yes, I am missing many posts because I rely on the reader. Be well dear Jules~
Thank you 🙂
Safe travels.
<3
Happy Thanksgiving Cindy! Hugz Lisa and Bear

I envy you and your camera.
You because you get to go so many places.

Shiva
I envy my camera too, because it actually takes the pictures and gets to keep them!
Thank you my friend and cheers~
Amica mia. Have a nice week end. Saluti Rinaldo.
Buon fine settimana a voi il mio amico ~
Anche a te felicità!
<3
Thanks for the memories! I think I traveled this same route, Cologne, Amsterdam, The North Sea, Luxembourg…lots of places in between so many years ago. Nice to see it’s just as beautiful as I remember it!
Happy holidays to you and yours! XO
These places built is the middle ages don’t change much do they? Thank God! <3
If only the sight of beauty would stem the violence. Because beauty is always around us.
You know exactly how I feel about this Brenda, like we are a species that never learns….
We are a species doomed to repeat our mistakes ad infinitum. We are all born with endless potential, for good and evil. It’s our choices that we can control. I have hope for us. That we will always step back from the brink. That the voice of reason will continue to be heard in each generation. We all have to be that voice of reason in our own little worlds.
Yes! We are all given free will. Our choices are incredibly important, not only in our lives, but in the lives of others, and beyond, like ripples in the ocean spreading across the seas and reaching distant shores. We are all connected and the same, so killing makes no sense. When you kill someone, you are killing yourself too.

So kind of you and so appreciated! <3
Cindy, I was crying earlier, the newest shootings of 14 in California just tore me up. Apparently a person in the building texted for her family to pray for her. This post was made before but I need peace of mind. I will look once more at your images of beauty and your wise words, a sincere wish for Peace. ♡
This gives me goosebumps. God finds us and gives us peace. Hugs to Robin~
Your photos are amazing – how I’d love to paint it all!!
Thank you! I hope you do~
What stunning photos!
You are a wonderful blogging friend Margaret!
Thanks Cyndi!

I love yours too so we share a mutual accord! Cheers to you and be well~
Christmas love
spreads joyfully to
friends, new and old, as
natural as mountain streams
flow under
ice and snow
still moving, to join.
Harmony
comes from sharing a
round table. Buddha
Mohammad,
Jesus, Confucius,
Abraham, Gandhi
and Luther invite a pope
to break bread
under one God
that all pray to here
in Gwangju,
there in Amsterdam,
and Davao, where the
hunt for food
and water reverts to old
ways, not the
usual Christmas,
but children scramble
for goodies
like coconuts, fruit, rare meat
while we feast
on turkey, baked so
well, spring rolls folded
and rolled by
hands so delicate you can’t
imagine
what they’ve done. Merry
Christmas everyone.
Whatever I have done in my life, is so worth it, to be able to meet people like you.
Blogging has opened up a world of incredible people to me.
I am so jazzed everyday,
to see what this creative international community,
has come up with while I am sleeping.
I am blown away by you.
Thank you.
germany is awesome 🙂
It is! Happy New Year!
happy new years to you too 🙂
Awesome pics and beautiful messages
