All Nature Heeds Changing Seasonality
" Delicious autumn!
My very soul is
wedded to it,
and if I were a bird
I would fly about the earth
seeking the successive
autumns. "
George Eliot
Summer's Overload of Rioting Vitality has Moved On
" Life passes quickly by.
It seems an art
to flow with it,
to accept what it is,
rather than to fight the tide.
There is no time
for the madness. "
Sandy Carlson
" In the long run,
we shape our lives,
and we shape
ourselves. "
Eleanor Roosevelt

Dare with me
to take a bow
for your
choices!
We are too focused
on measuring
how far we have
to go.
Let's share a moment
to enjoy
the harvests
we've earned.
Hooray for US!
Warmly, cloudia
Lovely Bird of Paradises!
