The greatest enemy
of positive social change
is cynicism about
what can be changed.

Deceptively deep
this heart we hold,
A universe
of stories untold.
With every beat
a truth unfolds,
Timeless tide
of all sweet souls.

California Quail
Photo taken in Calif.
A fresher gale begins
to wave the wood,
and stir the stream, sweeping
with shadowy gust the
fields of corn; while the quail
clamors for his running mate.
James Thomson
Be both soft and wild.
Just like the Moon.
Or the storm. Or the sea.
Victoria Erickson
Don't waste time on nonsense.
Nor be taken in by conjurors and
hoodoo artists with their talk.
Don't be obsessed with
quail-fighting
or other crazes like that.
Marcus Aurelius
Quail Fighting?
Are they especially pugnacious birds?
More good advice from the
Master and one time Roman Emperor.
But chosen chiefly for the echo to
the Quail above.
And so another day in
Blogland!

Love the comparison between the moon, a storm and the sea...
I find the concept of quail fighting quite a disturbing thought
Yes. Thank you both.
Beautiful moon! Love the ducklings and the quail.
Take care, have a great day!
Maybe Marcus Aurelius meant " don't worry about complete nonsense " but great that such texts so old still attract attention.
Everything can change. :)
Pixie looks alert.
Beautiful photos and sentiments as always. Blessings, Cloudia!
Pixie is disturbed by the thoughts of quail fighting, Cloudia. ;-)
Either Pixie is disturbed by the thought of quail fighting or she is in the process of composing a song entitled "Everybody loves quail bird fighting..." We will not know until she begins singing it to the moon from her skywalk one night.
Beautiful birds and beautiful Pixie.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches to Pixie. ♥
...Robert Reich is a bright man!
Sweet pics. Visiting from #TravelTuesday
Change is a big part of life. It is not always for the best, but people need to at least try to see why it could be good rather than criticize anything new which they love to do.
Lovely your photos and poem Aloha! 🙏
Amazing sky view, Cute duckling, quail bird, Lovely Pixie :)
Beautiful post. Greetings
