Perfection of character
is this: to live each day
as if it were your last,
without frenzy, without apathy,
without pretence.
Marcus Aurelius
Never let hard lessons
harden your heart;
the hard lessons
of life are meant to
make you better,
not bitter.
Roy T. Bennett
Every place is a goldmine.
You have only to
give yourself time...
and soon the most
insipid, most insignificant
place becomes a mirror
of the world, a window
on life...
Tiziano Terzani
Even with a heart
that aches,
the Dawn
still softly wakes;
Gold gathers
on the sea,
and life itself
returns to me.
I give thanks
for this new day,
for breath, for light,
the grace along the way
and pray the coming
hours may be
kind, and gentle
With thee and me.

Trixie has spotted something worth her gaze.
Aloha, dear Cloudia,
these are once again very beautiful photos and wise words. (Lovely Pixie shot with a pretty reflection!) And it is so true: Even with a heart that aches, it is important to be grateful for every day and to live as if it were your last.
All the best from Austria 🤗

Love your words and the lovely Pixie today, Cloudia. ;-)
...perfection can be elusive, pretty good is attainable.
Aloha, very refreshing space you have created. But one question - is perfection of character necessary or one who tries is good enough!
Beautiful poem. Stunning pics. Greetings to you and Pixie.
