☿ Daily Notes, Contemporariness

Luxury of Contemporariness

One day, you’re waking up to thousand detailed nature😍🌳🌼🌻🌺🌲🌾, sipping your tea ☕️next to warbling stream with serenades of birds. Maybe, you are on top a rock, maybe your scenery has a big mountain🗻 or just vast soil only carry trees🌲, flowers 🌹and animals🐐.

Next day, you are on top of the skyscraper😍🌆. There are some gorgeous flowers in the vases. Everything is so bright.  Surfaces are very smooth. You’re sipping your tea ☕️looking at nothing except contracted area 🎡🌇, knowing you’re surrounded with foundations🏢, and hundreds of people.

Your sips taste same. You are glad for both. This is the luxury of our epoch. ⏳🌍🌈

How wonderful to walk step by step on the history and appreciate it. This road convey 8th century BC to today. According to historians the ruins of Gordion and Midas City prove that Phrygia had developed an advanced Bronze age culture.

Homer has a reference of Phrygians  in his book Illiad.

The Phrygian Way was an ancient name for Anatolia covering the present day provinces of Afyonkarahisar, Ankara, Eskişehir and Kütahya. Today, with The 506 km standard white red signed route, trekkers 👣 and cyclers  🚲 can enjoy with the traces of Phrygian civilisation and the natural beauties of the Phrygian valleys.

If you are 1⃣ of the many ancient history lovers 🎯, you will enjoy your time to experience beauty.

Running love 💖

Glad to be able to run half an hour 🤗👏🏻💖

 

Golden Rules of Running for me:

  • Golden Rule One: A strong body will support your running, so don’t try to go from zero to hero, have patience and persistence in your practice, do the basic core exercises, stretch regularly. Stretching make you less sore the day after your run. Listen to your body and take rest when you feel you need. N E V E R  C O M P A R E !
  • Golden Rule Two: Proper running kit and trainers – They will make running easier and more comfortable. Also, they will give you motivation. Don’t forget the running bra that you will be grateful. Headphone is a significant accessory as listening up beat music makes your mood up. Be careful when you chose your headphone some are really good in the movement and some are not. Hats are wonderful.
  • Golden Rule Three: Do NOT eat so much before running. For me, everything has to be well blended – my favourite recipe is banana, oatmeal, dried berries, nuts and cinnamon. Y U M M Y and light!

St. Pierre Church

 

St. Pierre Church is an ancient cave church located just outside modern Antakya. You can observe Antakya from top of the hill where the church was located. Astonishingly beautiful natural site, full of olive trees, becomes even more striking with knowing its history and significance.

It was admitted as the F I R S T   C A T H E D R A L   O F   T H E   W O R L D !

“St. Pierre, to whom the church was dedicated, is the founder of the Antakya Church and the archpriest of the first Christian Community here and also the first Pope in the world. St. Pierre church and its surroundings played a significant role in the period of the early Christianity and expansion of the belief. The church is admitted as the first cathedral of the world and was announced as a place of pilgrimage by the Pope in 1963. Because of the building witnessed the first Christians and their meetings, it bears a unique importance.” https://whc.unesco.org/en/tentativelists/5613/
