Circus Girl

A  L  O  H  A !

“ It is difficult to 
see a situation 
for what it is 
when you are 
in the midst 
of it. ” 
                 Erin Morgenstem









“ You better get 
secretarial work 
or get married. ”
Emmeline Snively, 
[Director of 
Blue Book Modeling Agency, 
discouraging would-be model 
Marilyn Monroe, 1944]






“ This is not magic. 
This is the way 
the world is, 
only very few people 
take the time 
to stop 
and note it. ” 
                   Erin Morgenstern








So glad that YOU
swam by to visit today!

I think the 
whole point of Life
is to join
the right circus.

Thanks for laughing
at my antics!
[and for Your own]
                        Fondly, cloudia

    Thank goodness most people, with their goals in mind, take the course of MM and make the most of what they have.

    I like the quote about getting a secretarial job or getting married juxtaposed with the picture of the construction worker. You have a quirky sense of humor. The picture of the tree is really beautiful, too.

    Life's a circus, or a party. It's certainly not a forced march.

    Marilyn followed at least some of that advice. And I cannot see her being a successful secretary.
    Hooray for circuses - but hold the clowns. Such sad things...

    I love your circuses, Cloudia. It's so true about not being able to see clearly when you're in the midst of it.
