Evening, Wisdom and Beauty
He that respects himself is safe from others; he wears a coat of mail that none can pierce. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Change is inevitable - except from a vending machine. ~Robert C. Gallagher
Third world musings for the 3rd photo ....
The perfectly developed
advanced
philanthrophic
petals,
side by side
with
the
troubled bud
still developing,
brown spots
amidst the
pervading green.
The leaves
in their greenness
do not skimp
on facing the Sun
to make food
for all,
and oxygen
for all,
big and small.
But sometimes,
it helps,
if,
like a mother,
the big one
gives up its
portion,
to the one,
who is trying
to flower,
amidst
the troubling browns,
to get
into the pink of health
Copenhagen , anyone ?

I am here as usual taking in your musings
fondly
As always, beautiful images and thoughts, Sylvia!
Your pictures and quotes are very inspirational. I really love the sunset among the trees in the last picture.
Happy Christmas Week Sylvia. And thank you for all that you share.
That last quote is so great -- too many people I know (of a "certain age") have just given up on being interested -- which to me is giving up on life.
I like the mix of wisdom and laughs tonight!
The photos are always gorgeous.
Thanks for keeping my perspective where it should be Sylvia! Busy times like this are just too easy to get lost in.
I hope you're having a wonderful holiday week!
Keep a black bush in your heart and perhaps a nervous breakdown will come.
