Evening, Wisdom and Beauty!!

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.   Oscar Wilde.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.  Lao Tzu

 "It's impossible" said pride. "It's risky" said experience. "It's
 pointless" said reason. "Give it a try" whispered the heart.   Anonymous

wonderful quotes. i love the red leaf.

I especially like that last quote. It took me a long time to realize that never to try is to be sure to fail. I guess that is why they say "nothing ventured, nothing gained".

Such incredible fiery colors! I wonder if I'll see them in Illinois or if I'll be too late.

You hit the jackpot with these photos...and the quotations. I recall reading that we should "love our neighbors as ourselves." That doesn't work too good if we don't much like ourselves. :-)

I think a lot of folks grow up not loving themselves 'cause so many people told them they were unlovable in many different ways.

Positive reinforcement often works wonders!

Oh I love all of these quotes Sylvia, I wonder who the anonymous writer of the last wonderful quote was and if it was a man or woman!

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.
