One of the most tragic
things I know about
human nature is that
all of us tend to
put off living.

Red-crested Cardinal
(Paroaria coronata)
also known as
the Brazilian Cardinal.

with sorrow as to make you forget the joy... Mother Teresa of Calcutta

The past is just a fleeting dream, Future a distant wavering beam. Here we stand where time aligns, It is in the present that magic shines. Cloudia Charters

I love the shot of the guy eating the rainbow! Pixie looks like she doesn't quite believe he is doing it. Cool Cloudia poem, too.

Magic does shine in the present, Cloudia. I'm impressed by that photo of the guy "talking" a rainbow - wow! Blessings!

My brain is confused about where that locker room is located, with da wet floor. Must be an outdoor beach building, otherwise it belongs to Oceans of Fun theme park in K.C. Linda in Kansas

I had never heard of the red-crested cardinal and was surprised to learn it isn't a true cardinal at all! Sure looks like one.
