Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects. ~Arnold Glasow



He that respects himself is safe from others; he wears a coat of mail that none can pierce. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow



Respect yourself and others will respect you. ~Confucius



A hug delights and warms and charms,
that must be why God gave us arms.

Kissing is a means of getting two people so close together that they can't see anything wrong with each other. ~Rene Yasenek



A hug is worth a thousand words. ~Author Unknown

  1. So these photos are from a previous spring? I love that clematis! We have a few shoots of spring bulbs starting to poke through.
    I enjoyed your Emergency Flashers

  3. Beautiful photos. I like the quote about a kiss. :) Flowering Plums are blooming here now, a little rain-worn, but blooming.

  4. Spring is on its way - Two more weeks and its time to plant those peas. But keep the mud boots close by.

  6. So am I Sylvia! I sense Spring is around the corner. my son just said tonight, he sees Spring like a light at the end of the tunnel, the light is very small but it is definitely there. I thought that was a hopeful way of looking at it.

    The quote about laughter is so true, it really is the best medicine.

  9. Am excited for you Slyvia. Am sure when its time for Spring, you will share more great photos to us.

    Nice captures and interesting quotations.You made me smile with the first quote because whenever we are tired and busy, we always tell and remind our colleagues ( nurses and other members of healthcare team ) the importance of smile.

  10. Oh Sylvia,all the quotes are so true. I love the "kissing" one and it's a fact that laughter is a tranquilizer without side-effects. Have a wonderful weekend. (Friday is Sunday in the Sudan, so I'm a bit early.) (((hugs))) Jo
