Each of the sayings this week is particularly profound, Sylvia. The quote by White is indicative of the busy mind that is often conflicted between enjoying what is and the urge to transform each moment into something better. I love your header this time around. It is so airy and light and many of the activities in the scene remind me of my own fictional character and her antics. Hope you and yours had a great Easter weekend!
I love your new header and photos, Sylvia! Your format is ideal for posting pictures. Thanks so much for visiting my blog and writing such meaningful comments. Much appreciated!
Oh, look at those tulips! I want the whole bucket!
Great header too! Hope you had a wonderful Easter.
Your photos are beautiful -- I really like that waterfall. But your quotes are also wonderful and profound. I like both James and White quotes very much. Thanks for a great post.
Perfect pictures Sylvia!
Wonderful pictures - so full of joy!
Beautiful photos for spring in your world, Sylvia. Your quotations are super. I especially like the Don Marquis quote. I've been quoting his "archy and mehitabel" for years, the part about "warty bliggens, the toad" who thought the world had been created especially for him.

I bet Saturday is coming fast now! I hope you are all packed. :)
Lovely shots as always, Sylvia. That waterfall is perfect - it makes me wonder where the water is mysteriously falling. Good luck next Saturday!

That darn communistic Pete Seeger had a zinger today. (We could sure use him now.)

such a beautiful world...the waterfalls, the lovely flowers and the smiling people. have a good week, Sylvia!
You and your blog are effervescent. You fill me with the joy of life when I stop here.
Great quotations today, matched by great photographs. Have a good week, Sylvia.
Sylvia,
I certainly hope the moments I spole of in my poem are few and far between for you! It is not a good place to be...thinking of you!
Lovely photos and quotes, Sylvia. I won't be around next weekend to see how your move goes so best of luck with it. I'll check in next Tuesday.
Love your photos! Our world is such a beautiful place and if only I have enough means, I'll be exploring. The tulips are incredible!

I love waterfalls
the photo of you is a treat, you look wonderful
Hope sends hugs
Your world is very beautiful . Nice waterfalls .
Beautiful waterfall, beach, ladies and tulips, Sylvia! So, do you move in to your new apartment on Saturday? How exciting! I hope the move goes smoothly.
The last quote has made me stop and think, while about “friend” and “belief on life’s worth living” and others, I simply nodded. Like snow-white, I spotted company badge of Kikkoman Soy Sauce Co. on the bucket of tulips...., smiles.
All the photos are uplifting and refreshing. Thank you, Sylvia, for sharing. Be well prepared for the move and take care!
Wonderful photos and words. Our world is beautiful!
Perfect illustrations! Such an exciting time for you.
Beautiful header and enjoyable pictures, Sylvia! The quotes are very good too.
Have a nice day!
beautiful captures and thoughtful wisdom!
Very beautiful tulips.Your Spring is here and weather is getting hotter over her.
I like the last shot of the flowers best - that reused bucket is a great addition, I think it add a new level of interest to the picture.

love the water fall, if it is not too cold, I like to just sit down the cascading water.

I just loved seeing this happy photo of you!
Love the waterfall photo and the quote even more... Guess I received way too little "education" and learned mostly from the school of hard knocks!
I hear Louis Armstrong (or Eva Cassidy)singing "what a wonderful world" in the background.
Great photos and words.
Have a nice day always.
