PLEASE....

 
 
"Was sonst".
Murals again found at Westerly Ring-Area in Braunschweig, created by students.
 
It´s such a pain to turn on the telly these days, yet, I do.
I always hope to get good news.
 
I want to see this for real:
 

 I want to hear people sing the songs of joy, rebuilding their free country.
 

 Pics taken before we knew what was rolling towards us.
 
Why English? Why "STAY", not "BE", I have no idea.
Maybe this was dedicated to another war, who knows? There are no names of the artists. 
 
Henry ๐Ÿฆ would love to say this: 
 
 
I hope... for the people of the Ukraine... this means not Germany, not Poland, not... wherever it is not their home, I hope it will be their homes and that they can call Europe their family.
 
By golly. Who would ever have thought this madness might hit us, and yes, it is "us", we all will suffer if they do not stand brave.
Politically "we" are not allowed to help and this hurts so much.
 
Throwing bombs on a hospital where women birth babies ... how small can a tiny 1.70m man get? 
Stay strong!
 
This is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals. ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

Maybe the mural was "stay brave" during the pandemic, not yet about Ukraine.
It's nice and colourful and love the Henry mural with the baby lion.
Wish Nato or European countries or anyone could stop that madman!!!
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

Stay brave. Ukrainians! I love those paintings

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I'm with Sami. I think the other war is the pandemic. It's a great mural, though.

Iris Flavia said...

Sami, yes, it´s from 2020, sad the words still fit. For both even.

Bertiebo, I think they do!

Iris Flavia said...

Elizabeth, yes, well, though with the pandemic the word "smart" comes to my mind, or "strong", considering nurses and doctors...

CJ Kennedy said...

A thoughtful post, Iris. We must all be brave. ๐ŸŒป

Iris Flavia said...

CJ,yes.

kwarkito said...

A beautiful serie

Tom said...

...beautiful, keep the music playing!!!

Iris Flavia said...

kwarkito, yes, they´re really nice.

Tom, we will!

I don't know why English instead of German but I think "Stay" makes sense -- if this was painted for the refugees, they already ARE brave -- and they need to stay that way to get through this. Both are beautiful murals.

Iris Flavia said...

The mural is from 2020, but it sure fits today. Not all Ukrainian people speak German, so even English was a good decision back then, you are right!

magiceye said...

Beautiful murals!

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, happy ones.

DVArtist said...

These are wonderful murals. Have a nice day Iris.

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you, Nicole, and I wish you the same :-)

gigi-hawaii said...

Very beautiful pictures! The artists are talented! Yes, I agree that war is ugly. It is such a pity that we cannot do more to help Ukraine.

Iris Flavia said...

Especially since other counties will help Russia...

Bill said...

Nice finds, I like the mural's message.

RedPat said...

I have been trying to avoid the news but it is impossible.

Iris Flavia said...

Bill, yes, all of them :-)

RedPat, we get so many refugees, I just want to be up to date.
Also, what if Polen is next, then... it would be us again.

We are thinking of them from here, unbelievable that people here are complaining about their freedom, they should got to the Ukraine and really see what losing freedom looks like.

Bathwater said...

I am glad the Ukrainians are not making it easy. I hope the rest of the world takes notice.

Iris Flavia said...

Amy, yes, here they whine they have to wear a mask in shops etc, their freedom being robbed.

____

Bathwater, I hope they stay free!

William Kendall said...

It fits both circumstances.

Amila said...

This mural is valid for every day for everyone. Stay Brave in every challenge in life!. And it suits the current situation in the world too. A beautifully painted mural.
Thanks for sharing with all of us.
Have a great day!

Iris Flavia said...

William, yes....

Amila, that is very true, too. I start a new job today...

I saw something good on the news last night. President Volodymyr Zelensky walking through a hospital greeting his injured soldiers, shaking their hands and giving them medals.
He is a good President, one who cares for his country and people.
