Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

  3. Beautiful quotes and sunsets. A quote from Joe Spado's blog (and he was quoting a dear Native American friend that he just lost):
    "Do not look behind you. There is nothing for you there."

    I missed seeing you on ABC Weds.

  5. I love the Ellis and Budha quotes. Living in the present, holding on, and letting go. Takes a lifetime to figure all that out.

  6. Oh the last quote is so true, Sylvia. People allow fear to rule their lives and this is a disease. Hope you're having a wonderful day. Thanks for sharing. Blessings Jo
