Today is the Glorious May 25th 🪻
Vimes strolled over the moss-grown gravel.
In the twilight, the lilac blooms seemed to shine.
Their scent hung in the air like fog.

White text on a lavender background, superimposed on a photo of lilacs. Text reads, "He wanted to go home. He wanted it so much that he trembled at the thought. But if the price of that was selling good men to the night, if the price was filling those graves, if the price was not fighting with every trick he knew… then it was too high. It wasn’t a decision he was making, he knew that. It happened far below the levels of the brain where decisions were made. It was something built in. There was no universe, anywhere, where a Sam Vimes would give in on this, because if he did then he wouldn’t be Sam Vimes, anymore. Terry Pratchett, Night Watch"
How do they rise up?

Sobre un fondo de cielo estrellado vemos: el logo de Star Wars; sobre el logo vemos el texto «El Glorioso 25 de mayo», junto a una escoba y u gorro de bruja; bajo el logo vemos el texto «Don't panic and carry a towel» («No te asustes y lleva una toalla», en español), junto a este texto vemos a Mervin, el robot de la película «La guía del autoestopista galáctico» haciendo un pulgar arriba mientras mira a cámara.
Hoy celebramos: Star Wars Episodio IV: Una nueva esperanza, el Día de la Toalla (La Guía del Autoestopista Galáctico) y El Glorioso 25 de Mayo, en honor a Mundodisco de Sir Terry Pratchett.

Not lilac but lilac coloured, so I’ve deemed these Aubrieta suitable as #TheSmallThings #SpreadingJoy today #GNUTerryPratchett #TheGlorious25thOfMay
Today is May 25th when we remember Terry Pratchett, The People’s Republic of Treacle Mine Road, and all those who do the job that is in front of them, no matter what.
