    I love the fields of blue, and the streaky clouds!

    The quotes are nice, too, though the one from Marie Curie is rather poignant, considering what happened to her.

    I read another great one from Goethe yesterday "People only hear what they understand" and I am finding it to be so true at work lately :)

    What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful (to at least one other person)!
