" My favourite thing

where I've never been. "
Diane Arbus
Has it really been a DECADE since I've walked in New York?!
" There is nothing
like returning to a place
that remains unchanged
to find the ways
in which you yourself
have altered. "
Nelson Mandela
"Santa? Hello?"
"A house without either a cat
or a dog
is the house of a scoundrel."
Portuguese Proverb
What do you mean dog OR Cat?! |
" A cat is more intelligent
than people believe,
and can be taught
any crime. "

is turning
30.
I'd like to
feel & look
30-
But
would I actually go back
to that age?
What is that they say?
" If I knew then
what I know
now!"
*Sigh*
There is also an old
Pennsylvania Dutch saying,
“ Too soon old,
too late smart. ”
Just between us;
it is certainly true
of me.
of me.
George Bernard Shaw said
" Youth is wasted
on the young."
But I don't think that's true.
Youth has it's joys, tasks &
challenges;
challenges;
We mature people
have very different
ones.
So no,
I would not like to forget
the little wisdom
that I have acquired;
Nor the people
and experiences
that I have enjoyed
and endured
and endured
since age
30.
Elizabeth Taylor said:
" It is strange
that the years teach us patience;
that the years teach us patience;
that the shorter our time,
the greater our capacity for waiting. "
It takes courage to realize
that our time here,
(our loved ones' too)
has an expiration date.
If you could begin
again,
again,
but had to leave the life
you know
you know
and built
would you
?
Thank YOU for visiting!
Warmly, cloudia
