Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



How strange that Nature does not knock, and yet does not intrude! ~Emily Dickinson,



I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in. ~George Washington Carver



Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson



Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. ~Kahlil Gibran



The poetry of the earth is never dead. ~John Keats

Nature seems to have a whole lot of silent wisdom coming from different channels. Just have to choose one of them!

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.
