stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine
when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in
their true beauty
is revealed only
if there is light
from within. "

I think I will be the last clown out of the car.
When I attented Grad school at the University of Windsor in the 70's, Joyce Carol Oates was on the faculty.
I would have liked to have seen YOU barefoot Cloudia...:-)
reading your posts every morning are the very best way to start my day, thank you for that!
I guess I am exiting right before TWM
Aloha!
ohhhhh you know I love that monkey quote!
Love that first photo - love those clouds! : )
Your pictures of the sky and the George Carlin quote are sublime!
The stain glass window quote is enlightening. Great captures presented.
that sunset is spectacular!
The "Circus" being politics, I assume. It certainly is.
Wise words as usual, Cloudia.
As always a wonderful post, but today it is the final quote and photo which resonate most strongly. Many thanks.
Just saw a DVD on Kubler-Ross...amazing pioneer. DrumMajor
Thanks for looking in on me today!
Much appreciated
Hi Cloudia! I just saw an article in the Star Advertiser today about the immigrant clothing exhibit. It sounds very interesting but the tickets are a little on the pricey side. It makes me glad we're seniors now. :-)
Gorgeous images and worthy quotes!
