Evening Wisdom, Summer, Beauty

 

In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
Buddha



Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore

 

I love the sea's sounds and the way it reflects the sky. The colours that shimmer across its surface are unbelievable. This, combined with the colour of the water over white sand, surprises me every time.

God waits to win back his own flowers as gifts from man's hands.

we need to classify things to make sense of where we live in, and spot a typo:
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true.

Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful shots, Sylvia. And thanks for visiting my blog.

I love the Tagore quote about clouds. I don't think he was just talking about the sky.

LOVE the daisies - they are my favorite flower! I carried a huge bouquet on my wedding day which just happened to be 31 years ago today! Celebrate!

Haha ... I've LOVE to have the t-shirt in the previous post and would wear it proudly! Your photos and wise words are wonderful (as always). I love the daisies here almost as much as the fields of purple flowers I forgot to mention in a previous comment this afternoon.
Hugs and blessings,

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
