God's extraordinary work
is most often done
by ordinary people
in the seeming obscurity
of a home and family. "
Neal A. Maxwell
I have studied
many philosophers
and many cats. The
wisdom of cats is
infinitely superior.
Hippolyte Taine

Monday Murals
Monday Murals
As the lunar New year approaches
and the lion waits
behind the curtain,
I remember: renewal is
noisy, brave, and
beautifully imperfect.
Let the old year carry away
what no longer serves you,
so the new year finds you
light and unburdened.
Standing at the gate
of the lunar year,
I bow to what has been,
and open both hands
to what may come.

David has pushed his luck many many times over the years.
Great captures today. I love the quote from Hippolyte Taine (partly because he has such a snazzy name). Pixie looks like she loves the quote, too. I am getting ready for the Year of the Fire Horse, too, and new beginnings. Great thoughts from you and Pixie about the coming lunar new year.
That lion dance mural is so good
Most definitely yes to the wisdom of cats!
Ah, Lunar New Year. Big celebrations happen here
Great collection of photos and quotes.
I like your words on the Lunar New Year!
Happy February! Have a wonderful week!
Beautiful quotes. Great photos. Rainbow pic awesome.
Mural looks amazing. Hello to Pixie :) Have a nice week ahead.
...perfection is hard to find. Pretty good can be good enough.
Letterman’s quote about doing good things is correct in my experience.
Pixie wisely knows that a nap is called for.
Nice quotes.
I have to agree with Pixie that cats are infinitely more wise than we are. Loved the poem at the end, too. Blessings, Cloudia!
Love the words and your pics, Cloudia. ;-)
Beautiful photos and quotes today. Have a lovely day.
The Neal A. Maxwell quote captures the essence of holiness.
