Surf

 

Feelings are much like waves, 

we can't stop them from coming 

but we can choose which one to surf. 

 ~Jonatan Mårtensson~

Nature of Art

The sky, a perfect empty canvas, offers clouds nonetheless.  

They shift and drift and beg interpretation... 

such is the nature of art.  

~Jeb Dickerson~

Beautiful Land of Life!

Rejoice with your family 

in the beautiful land of life! 

 ~Albert Einstein~

 

We sure did yesterday.

Hope you all had a great 4th!

Have a Great 4th

 

America is great because she is good. 

If America ceases to be good,

 America will cease to be great.

~ Alexis de Tocqueville~

Blessed Are The Peacemakers

The real differences around the world today are not between Jews and Arabs; 

Protestants and Catholics; Muslims, Croats, and Serbs.  

The real differences are between those who embrace peace and those who would destroy it;

 between those who look to the future and those who cling to the past; 

between those who open their arms and those who are determined to clench their fists. 

 ~Bill Clinton~

Happy Camping Time

Happiness flutters in the air 

whilst we rest 

among the breaths of nature.  

~Kelly Sheaffer~

What You See

The question is not what you look at, but what you see.

It is only necessary to behold the least fact or phenomenon,
however familiar, from a point a hair's breadth aside from our habitual path or routine,

to be overcome, enchanted by its beauty and significance.

To perceive freshly, with fresh senses is to be inspired.

Henry David Thoreau

I see a place to crawl in and whisper my secrets to the earth, 

knowing that she will keep them safe.

What is it that you see?
