Evening Words, Wisdom and Beauty


Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it. Let me not look for allies in life's battlefield but to my own strength. Let me not cave in.
Rabindranath Tagore

We gain freedom when we have paid the full price.
Rabindranath Tagore

We live in the world when we love it.
Rabindranath Tagore

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

    Beautiful photos once again, I can't decide which one I like more.

    Greetings, as a longtime citizen of the Capital City of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, I thought I would start a photo blog displaying my love of photography and incorporate it with my favourite city. Hope you all enjoy my photos (I'll try to add at least one per day) and feel free to submit some requests or comments. Thanks so much.

    I have learned to love Tagore from your blog. You teach me everyday to reach for the stars.
    The pictures are so beautiful Loved them all, but the trees wispering to heaven was special to me.

    I thought because you are From Over the Hill, and I am Life On the Hill (although always in danger of slipping off the hill), that I should sign up. Love your photos.
