The Weekly Photo Challenge is Fray.
What do we do when our lives are frayed and seem to unravel before our eyes?
We search for the worn and frayed cords that bind us to life.
We unravel our nets slowly and meticulously.
Then, we patch the holes from which happiness escapes.
And life sends us on our merry way.
Rewired and Retired in Nicaragua 
Reblogged this on roxannity and commented:
Never feel as if there is “no hope”, this woman in Nicaragua has renewed hope daily and she finds it in “frayed knots”, it is true, “frayed so”!!!!
Thanks, Roxannity. 🙂

Very Apprapo 🙂
I love your comments, Quarksire!

Simply gorgeous! Thanks Debbie for bringing a smile!
Thanks, Nicole…everyone needs a smile in times of hardship, right?
great photos that tell a story of hope
That’s what we all need, right? Thanks John and Mary!
Yes, hope is all we need, amen.
Good interpretation of the challenge.
Thanks, Pommepal.
Good choice of photos to tell your story. 🙂

Thanks, Janet. I still have many photos of our trip to Ecuador that I’m trying to use in stories.
I echo the above comments, Debbie. Just like last photo, life goes on and we do our best to live our lives with purpose and meaning…especially when frayed.
Yep, Lynne. Like Nemo says….We just keep swimming. 🙂
Beautifully done! I like the first shot. And the happy ending. Take care.
Thanks, Madhu. I need happy endings in my life right now.
To each photo their own interpretive meaning.
Lovely photos used to convey your story.
Thanks, Cassie. Glad you enjoyed them.
outstanding!
the second shot is really nice and fluid. i love how the yellow in the foreground leads the eye into the scene.

Ah, Z…your artist’s eye always finds the right perspective. Thanks.
good morning amiga!
i spent one more night at the hostal and made a lot of progress – sending promised photos to people, etc..
good news – a project across the river (out of sight but closer than town) will be installing a satellite internet system and when that happens, you and i will be able to talk on skype – WITH VIDEO – or i can write a wordpress post in an hour instead of an entire day, etc etc.
of course that might happen in the year 2016 – one never knows, but there’s hope!
heading home in a few hours… back to turtle pace..

Awesome collection of photos to tell your story. I like the symbolism as well!
Thanks. I’m in a symbolic kind of mood. 🙂
