Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless. ~Bill Watterson



Middle age is when you're sitting at home on a Saturday night and the telephone rings and you hope it isn't for you. ~Ogden Nash



Music is what feelings sound like. ~Author Unknown



You can't possibly hear the last movement of Beethoven's Seventh and go slow. ~Oscar Levant, explaining his way out of a speeding ticket



There is a bit of insanity in dancing that does everybody a great deal of good. ~Edwin Denby



You can dance anywhere, even if only in your heart. ~Author Unknown

I just had a call, and now I have a Hospice client. Just like the good old days when I had a real job!

Great quotes and great photos!

Being pointless releases one from any point of attachment. It is a state of true Love.

I don't own a phone, but Stacey does.

I really like the quote that equates feelings to music. Life vibrates and we can tune in to many songs.

Loved the speeding ticket excuse.

I'm a little past middle age and there are a lot of times the phone rings and I hope it isn't for me LOL

I like the photos very much.

Thanks so much for these! Gorgeous photos paired profound quotes all of us can identify with. Reading them makes me feel soothed, especially now that I am distracting my mind from the depressive mood which normally strikes after placing orders for my antidepressants at www.OrderDrugs.ca.

You post them in the evening ... I tend to find them in the morning yet they're MARVELOUS reminders ANY time of day. Thank you so much for your dedication ;-)
Hugs and blessings,

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.
