Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



About the only thing that comes to us without effort is old age. ~Gloria Pitzer



Success is a ladder you cannot climb with your hands in your pockets. ~American Proverb



Humor is a rubber sword - it allows you to make a point without drawing blood. ~Mary Hirsch



A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs - jolted by every pebble in the road. ~Henry Ward Beecher



Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face. ~Victor Hugo



A hug is a smile with arms, a laugh with a stronger grip. ~The Quote Garden

Perfect pairings of pics and words of wisdom.

Hugo's is my favourite quote today; that's a lovely thought.

But the cat with ribbons in the sidebar has me laughing out loud!

Have a wonderful evening Sylvia and a happy tomorrow!

Your words are also so wonderful and they always fit the picture. Well done.

I like the idea of having springs. If we become flexible, we no longer can be shocked. Charges disapate.

I hope you are enjoying our brief respite of sunshine! It sure felt good this afternoon.

Lovely photos and words as always. I especially like the one with the moon behind the trees.
Enjoy your day.

I have heard that everyone should try and hug someone at least 12 times a day for perfect health.

I really love that photo of the moon through the trees.

Old age might come without effort but it sure demands effort to walk around in it.

Inday said...

Humour and laughter combined give us wisdom to stay young. Nice theme for this evening beauty.

Loved reading all the quotes about humor, and couldn't agree more with them!

Great selection of shots.

Elizabeth Bradley said...

Love the moon through the tree branches, and that white rose. White roses and wise words. Thanks.

I thought fat comes almost as easily as age.

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.
