With the power of
our attention alone,
we can transform each moment,
each relationship,
in the same way alchemists
tried to turn lead
into gold.
David Servan-Schreiber
A diamond
with a flaw
is worth more
than a pebble
without imperfections.

We have more possibilities
available in each moment
than we realize.

Happiness resides
not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells in the soul. Democritus

Chinese violet, coromandel
or creeping foxglove.
There are always flowers
for those who want
to see them.

Even with imperfections, something rare and valuable like a diamond holds more worth than something flawless but ordinary, reminding us that true value lies in depth and uniqueness, not surface perfection.
I wouldn't dismiss the pebble either...
Beautiful! Have a nice weekend.
...may happiness always dwell in your soul.
Beautiful skies and I love the flowers and Pixie.
Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend.
Love the Matisse quote, among the others also fine. Henry Matisse's grandson, who lives in nearby Asheville and owns his own pottery business, was just interviewed on CBS Sunday Morning. So glad that pottery is featured, though it rides on the coattail of a famous artist.
Beautiful post!!
It is Friday. Have a nice weekend. May you find good pics and quotes.
A lovely yellow Hibiscus to end the post was wonderful, Cloudia.
We can find flowers everywhere if we choose to look. Blessings, Cloudia!
Amazing skies, Beautiful pics. Loved the post.
Beautiful pics! I love the window street/reflection selfie. :-)
Beautiful quotes and photos!

Happiness also resides in cute pictures of Pixie :)
Pixie happily finding some rays to bask in.
Happiness truly does dwell in the soul!
