Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Rumi



Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. Rumi



Look for the answer inside your question. Rumi



Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.
Rumi



Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.
Rumi

I feel like writing these down on a slip of paper and carrying them around with me so I can ponder these thoughts throughout the day. Rumi is full of wisdom, eh?

Hi Sylvia, I liked most of Rumi's quotes. And of course the pics are fantabulous. Rumi's first quote sounds nice to let it roll off your tongue but it simply is not true.
Take that Rumi - HA

Gorgeous photographs and thoughts. 'Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.' Very much struck a chord for me. Thank you for sharing.

Hello. Happy to make your acquaintance! I came over from the author blog. I love what you said here; "the further over the hill I got, the more things seemed to make sense to me, the more beauty I was able to see, the more joy I discovered." Brilliant.

**blows kisses** Deborah

What Can I Say?

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.
