Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

Thinking: the talking of the soul with itself.
Plato

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.  Marcel Proust

If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.

    Gorgeous evening skies and the tulips remind us the promise of spring... Ours comes and goes so quickly that we will be into summer before we can blink!

    Bises,

    There is no end to the creativity and humor your friend has with with 'mug shot'! Always brings a BIG smile to my face and giggles to boot. Love the flowers you've provided us with today along with the sagely quotes.

    Beautiful captures, Sylvia. We have had three days of cold, gray, stormy, rainy weather - Autumn definitely. Lovely to see your Spring images.

    You never run out of wisdom and beauty! I hope you get a chance to go to the tulip festival. I hear the fields are pretty much in full bloom now.
