True happiness is... to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

When what we are is what we want to be, that's happiness.
Malcolm Forbes

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Don't wait around for other people to be happy for you. Any happiness you get you've got to make yourself.

    That conch shell seems to be ablaze, but yet it casts a darksome shadow!

    Colorful shadows sparkle in the sunlight streaming through your windows. I love the glow of the sea shell.

    I suspect these are from your archive, or have you been seeing the sun lately?

    That conch is beautiful! It offers a translucent shadow in a fine pinkish glow...the doggie seems entranced or deep in thought. A studious look at a thinking dog! Love the stemware and vase, the shadowy hues as classic as the glassware itself. As always, a stylish post. Have a great week!

    The almost iridescence [is that the word I mean to use?] LOL ---I'm hot and not thinking well this afternoon]....the nearly see thru conch shell with the pink tinges....beautiful.

    Hope you're having a glorious, wonderful weekend so far.

    The glowing shell casting a dark sharp shadow is so enchanting! The quietly watchful Sam seems to add serenity to the view and the last glass image is magical and enchanting! Beautiful photos!

    Alice Walker is so right.
    We often think happiness 'there'. It's not. It's always in ourselves.
    I like your colorful shadows!

    I think shadows are alot like blogger friends, we can see them but yet not see them. But unlike a shadow we get to see at times the finest of details of their lives....Hmmmm...that is just like your pictures! Maybe that is why i love your posts.
    Take care!

    The shadows are just a delight and I particularly love those made by the colored glass. How appropriately chosen from someone who lives in what I call "glass mecca"!
