Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better. ~Plutarch



You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. ~Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet



Each day comes bearing its own gifts. Untie the ribbons. ~Ruth Ann Schabacker

I love the one about the friends. Isn't that true...I love it when people are just themselves no matter what :) Have a wonderful day tomorrow :)

Beautiful post here and on your Snoqualmi Falls post! Thanks for your kind comment on my world post and sky watch. The skies have been kind to us here and many of my shots are from our backyard.

Lovely photos and I like the Quote.."Each day comes bearing its own gifts."

Reader Wil said...

Thanks for these quotes and the beautiful photos! They really match. The one about the friends doing what you do and saying what you say, is not about real friendship; it's imitation. Besides real friends support you and tell you what you can do in case of problems. I don't mean that they advise you all the time, when you don't ask for it.
Anyway have a great day, Sylvia!

Sylvia, another great post "Evening, Wisdom and Beauty": I enjoy very much all the images and find so right and funny the quote by Plutarch.
Happy week!

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.
