Happiness

"Happiness of heart can never be measured out and bundled up,

it's intangible.

We keep running after it,

grasping for it,

and the heart of our running 

so seldom brings it closer.

But now and then 

there may be a moment.

We look at something 

and know it is good and beautiful.

Those moments are happiness."

Birds and Berries

I shot this photograph on my way to work today.

I've seen so many beautiful bird photos lately,

but haven't captured any recently.

Thank you, little bird.
I love your sweet face.
Soon we will both feel the warmth of Spring.

Friday's Flower

Just think.

Pretty soon we'll all be complaining

about the heat!

Have a great weekend!

June

" I have moments when I am frightened,

as one must be,

reading about the the intolerance

and hate

that sucks men down in a 

swampy muck.

There are plenty of things to sicken the heart,

and it is only realistic to face them.

But then I count the other people,

the friendly folk, 

and I am comforted,

and I have hope.

When I watch the June dusk

and see the sky glow with the color of moonstone,

and hear a wagon creaking down the shadowy road,

I know how beautiful the earth is.

Someday the sky will be quiet all over the earth,

and the sound of folk going home for supper

will replace the roar of guns."....

....and soon it will be June.

Ego

The ego says

"Once everything falls 

into place,

you will find peace."

The spirit says

"Find your peace

 and everything 

will fall into place."

Pink

 "I believe in pink.

I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.

I believe in kissing. Kissing alot.

I believe n being strong

when everything around 

seems to be going wrong.

I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls.

I believe tomorrow is another day.

And I believe in miracles."

~Audrey Hepburn~
