For successful living and aging
focus on your strengths and joys
not your weaknesses and fears.
Work while you have the light.
You are responsible for
the talent that has
been entrusted to you.

Wise advice.
ReplyDeleteThere are such good advice here, Cloudia. I like the Fred Rogers quote.
ReplyDeleteAfrican tulips are not good? Wow! I knew about the mongoose though and still see them occasionally running across the road.
That mongoose sure is cute! Pixie is wondering if it's a new breed of cat, or maybe a wild lion dancer assembling before the Year of the Rabbit.
ReplyDeleteI just saw a meme about Fred Rogers.
ReplyDeleteHe was a Presbyterian minister. For 40 years he taught children about love, compassion, respect, and kindness without ever invoking God, Jesus, or the Bible.
Pixie thinks that mongoose is an odd fellow.
ReplyDeleteI really like the fist quote very much. I have never seen a mongoose in real life before. Interesting little creatures. Have a very nice day today.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that you had mongoose there.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a mongoose, they are kind of cute. I hope they do not do any damage.
Pixie is always a star on your blog. Love the flowers and the pretty reflection in the first photo. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
I love that little Mongoose! And I just knew your quotes would be just for me today...and I was right! I have a birthday in a few days and I'm thinking about what makes me happy...or maybe WHY I AM happy! Enjoy your weekend!
