Twilight drops
her curtain down,
and pins it with a star.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
One is not idle
because one is
absorbed.
There is both visible
and invisible labor.
To contemplate
is to toil,
to think
is to do.
The eyes upturned
to Heaven
are an act
of creation.
Victor Hugo
The soul would
have no rainbow had
the eyes no tears.

ReplyDeleteHello Cloudia,
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your pretty sky captures. Love the mural, the cute dog and your sweet Pixie. Great quotes and your words are inspiring.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend.
What a beautiful post. The quotes you chose are so powerful and thought-provoking. I especially love the one about visible and invisible labor—it's such a great reminder that being absorbed in thought or contemplation is productive in its own way. Thanks for sharing these beautiful words and the lovely sunset photo.

Hugo had a way with words, didn't he?
ReplyDelete"Starring in your own tragedy never takes you anywhere good".
ReplyDeleteExactly!
Aloha and welcome to the lovely twilight hour, some may say bewitching non the less stunning. Those clouds are amazing. Victor Hugo is spot on. Your last photo with the handsome dog, I'd certainly ask to meet! Enjoy your weekend and hugs to Pixie too.
ReplyDeleteYes, the unseen work often shapes our days more than the visible tasks.
