Our World!!

The greater part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, and not on our circumstances.
Martha Washington
There is more to life than increasing its speed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
George Santayana
Spring draws nearer each day, mostly in small ways, but they leave no doubt that it is in the air and all around us!!

    So what if one is disposed to be circumstantially indisposed? I dunno.

    Just kidding. Nice flowery pictures to carry on the hope for spring. It's sunny here but still cool.

    Hope you're doing well and you've given Blogger a good whipping!

    Spring is definitely in the air … I saw someone jogging in cutoffs today and now with the time change the daylight hours are longer. Hooray is right!

    So pretty!

    Once again, Sylvia, VDP's posts are up for today and yesterday. THe fact that you don't see them in the reading list doesn't mean that I'm not posting, merely that Blogger isn't retrieving the feed.
