Evening, Wisdom and Beauty
Too often we... enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. ~John F. Kennedy
In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play. ~Friedrich Nietzsche
Adults are obsolete children. ~Dr. Seuss
One of the virtues of being very young is that you don't let the facts get in the way of your imagination. ~Sam Levenson
Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. ~Mark Twain
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. ~Samuel Ullman

I loved all the quotes and it was so hard to single anyone of them out. This one by Mark Twain Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter . That says it all!
Beautiful post. Kennedy was right. Thanks, Sylvia.
Great photos and quotes - I especially like that last quote, so true!
If we discard the notions of the mind, we are only left with the experience of the Moment which is beyond age and time. We are happy when the mind is gratified. We find joy when we feel directly from the Heart.
Beautiful photos and interesting quotations, as always.
You inspired me to post some of my favourite quotes and I started it last saturday (www.misalyn.blogspot.com), I made saturday as my inspirational day.
Thank you Slyvia.
Catching up in my reader this morning ... enjoying all your photos and quotes (laughed aloud at Dr. Seuss) and want to remember from one of your previous 'Evening Wisdom' posts ...
"It is only our own thoughts that hurt us and hold us back." Dr. Lee Jampolsky
Hope you're having a delightful day!
Hugs and blessings,

I love these beautiful shots of the sky. What are the purple flowers. I don't know much about flowers at all, but they look a little like lavender. They are beautiful!
Thanks for visiting, Carly! Yes, the flowers are lavender! Friends of mine took me to a lavander festival last summer and it was magnificent! Hope you have a great week!
