"When you lose, don't lose the lesson," is my favorite. It's the only way to grow, isn't it?

All are awesome photos Sylvia, but I must say that second pic is surreal. Well done as always.

All the best

"Sometimes the best way to hold onto something is to let it go. ~Author Unknown"

I would transform this quote into: Sometimes the best way to touch something or someone to its core essence, it to let it go. By trying to grab something, the situation becomes polarized and it is always just out of grasping range. When one relaxes after an intention is made, then it comes to you and merges with you with no effort what so ever.

Love the picture of the field of flowers with the tree in the background. It almost looks like it is from a fairy tale.

This is a great site you have here. I have a travel blog myself which I hope to be a top resource for vacation destination information.

I'd like to exchange links with you to help spread some traffic around between each other.

Please let me know if this is possible.

Beautiful photos, and the sayings under them are very powerful.

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.
