Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



There is no defense against adverse fortune which is so effectual as an habitual sense of humor. ~Thomas W. Higginson



If you cannot answer a man's argument, all it not lost; you can still call him vile names. ~Elbert Hubbard



I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes. ~Author Unknown



Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven. ~
Rabindranath Tagore



Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark. ~
Rabindranath Tagore



Lead me not into temptation; I can find the way myself. ~Rita Mae Brown

Great pictures. Although the first quore makes me wonder how someone who writes such stilted language could actually have a sense of humor.

Hi stranger, I am back to blogging again after a long break. Your photos are spectacular. That camera must be well and truly broken in now Sylvia. These are funny wise words too. Just what we need. Hope you are well and spring is in full blast where you are.

I hadn't heard most of these before Sylvia but they're all terrific! Got to keep some of them in mind too, during these stressful days....
thanks!

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.
