Rising Sun setting Moon

Rising Sun setting Moon

The secret of genius is

to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm. Aldous Huxley



Only rainbows after rain ....
The sun will always
come again.
   Andy Grammer




After the rain, the
sun will reappear.
There is life.
After the pain, the
joy will still be here.
    Walt Disney




Again let us dream 
where the land lies sunny 
And live, like the bees, 
on our hearts' old honey, 
Away from the world 
that slaves for money-- 
Come, journey the way with me.
Madison Cawein

Taken together, these reflections affirm that a life well lived is sustained by enduring curiosity, resilient hope after hardship, and a willingness to pursue joy and imagination beyond the narrow demands of material gain.

Beautiful skies and weather. Nice to look at when here it's so cold.
I love the Madison Cowain poem and Bruddah Iz's song. It's a beautiful song and he has a lovely voice. His memory lives on.
Happy New Year and Happy T-Day,
Lisca

This is such a gentle and uplifting collection of words. I love how the quotes flow together, all pointing back to hope, renewal, and holding on to childlike wonder. It feels especially fitting paired with the image of the rising sun and setting moon.

I’ve just shared a new post as well, and I’d be glad if you felt like stopping by to read it. Thank you for always sharing something so heartfelt and bright.
