Weekend Reflections

Weekend Reflections is hosted by James each week beginning Friday at 11 AM Eastern Standard Time. It's another wonderful way of opening your eyes to new and different kinds of beauty. 

Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.
Aldous Huxley


Into the house where joy lives, happiness will gladly come.
       Japanese Proverb

love that marina shot!

Nonnie said...

the sunset and the proverb speak to me.
it was only through a spiritual director that presented me with the idea that joy and happiness are not synonymous.

No doubt some nice pictures of this great sports harbor! Best regards!

I can just imagine the sounds and smells of the marina, it's lovely.

The sunset is dreamy and calm.

P.S. I love the Huxley quote!

Boats have to be regimented so people can access them - but they do look fierce in such straight lines.

Beautiful reflections, Sylvia. I hope you are doing well in Portland. I've been thinking about you because we've been talking about going to Seattle to catch some baseball games when the Toronto Blue Jays are there. Bad timing, because you're in Oregon now.

That sunset has a serenity to it which I hope is reflected in your recent move.

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.
