Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Don't be fooled by the calendar. There are only as many days in the year as you make use of. ~Charles Richards



As you grow older, you'll find the only things you regret are the things you didn't do. ~Zachary Scott



Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today. ~James Dean



In case you're wondering what this photo is -- it's the pattern that a heavy frost left on the glass top of a table on our deck.

Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead. ~Scottish Proverb



You live longer once you realize that any time spent being unhappy is wasted. ~Ruth E. Renkl



Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting. ~Dr. Seuss

    Beautiful words for thought and Zachary Scott makes sense about things we regret in our old age. The frost did leave a very impressive pattern on your table. It can make a good fabric design for clothing. Lovely to be able to visit your Evening Wisdom and Beauty again. Very soothing.

    Either my computer is messing up or something is wrong with Blogger because I keep getting an Unknown Error 999 at the most frustrating times. Methinks the comment I tried to leave got lost ... and my mind is addled. Looking at your lovely skies, reflecting on the wisdom you've shared, and revisiting the fascinating frost patterns on your table have 'centered' me once again. This time methinks I'll COPY my comment before pressing publish ... just in case ;-)
    Hugs and blessings,
