I was worried about which one to choose, but I chose this one slightly different type than usual.
Thank you for your faves and comments!!
This is my dictionary from 1976 when I started to learn english. Added a register from self adhesive paper for faster usage.
Still using it from time to time, because online dictionaries rarely have enough context to to find the right one from ten possible translations.
*Working Towards a Better World
Let's stop "tolerating" or "accepting" difference, as if we're so much better for not being different in the first place. Instead, let's celebrate difference, because in this world it takes a lot of guts to be different. - Kate Bornstein
No disability or dictionary out there, is capable of clearly defining who we are as a person. - Robert M Hensel
A community that excludes even one member, is not a community at all. - Anonymous
Not all superheroes wear capes. - Anonymous

This one's plain and simple. Just be yourself; don’t follow the crowd! Trends and fads come and go faster than a, "Hey, Macarena,” but don’t give in to pressure from your peers.
Don't get mad; get a puppy!
Studies have shown that puppies lighten our mood, lower stress levels, and even help us live longer. So next time you're feeling overwhelmed, go home and play with your pooch!

“What an astonishing thing a book is. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic."
[Cosmos, Part 11: The Persistence of Memory (1980)]”
― Carl Sagan, Cosmos
To write a letter - once a vibrating pain in the tissues was enough and a stock of words no greater than an animal's scream.
Nowadays, one needs an outline and an argument, and comparative explorations into the depth of dictionaries.
There are surgical interventions around words, there are word-hybrids, half-words, quarter-words, and there is an ambiguity of letters swollen with wisdom.
And my thirst - a fledgling nightingale is silenced by all these scores and instruments. And when you ask me for meaning, I feel how the branch that supports the frail nest snaps under the crushing load of a grand piano.
By HP (again...)

^*^ with Lots of BurBerry LuV ^*^
Held together with duct tape, these books resovled many disputes (except for one of the more competitive sibs who would just tear the page out if it didn't agree).
Tonight I present a stream of consciousness exercise in linking three unrelated photos. Just for fun. To begin with, let's assume this bunny knows there is a cat in the neighborhood, which is why the bunny is running away.
Enter the cat. Perhaps thinking of bunny stew, and licking its chops at the thought. Unless the cat, seeing me there with my camera, is thinking about photographer stew.
The bird fits in because it is a CATbird, a natural segue. (If you're not sure how to pronounce "segue," here's a link:
dictionary.reference.com/browse/segue
The Catbird gets its name because it sounds like a cat mewing, but actually this bird makes a lot of other delightful sounds. Have a listen here:
www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Gray_Catbird/sounds
The other interesting characteristic of the Gray Catbird is the patch of rusty red feathers under its tail (the undertail coverts, as they say in the birding world). And perhaps this can link us back to the beginning, because we get to see the rear ends of both the rabbit and the bird. And that's the end of this tale, as well. Hope you've enjoyed it, and the photos too.

Whatever their evolutionary origins, foraging, flying or crawling insects such as flies are attracted to the cavity formed by the cupped leaf of the Pitcher Plant, often by visual lures such as pigments, and nectar bribes. The sides of the pitcher are slippery and may be grooved in such a way so as to ensure that the insects cannot climb out. The small bodies of liquid contained within the pitcher traps are called phytotelmata. They drown the insect, and the body of it is gradually dissolved. This may occur by bacterial action (the bacteria being washed into the pitcher by rainfall) or by enzymes secreted by the plant itself. Furthermore, some pitcher plants contain mutualistic insect larvae, which feed on trapped prey, and whose excreta the plant absorbs. Whatever the mechanism of digestion, the prey items are converted into a solution of amino acids, peptides, phosphates, ammonium and urea, from which the plant obtains its mineral nutrition (particularly nitrogen and phosphorus).
Lately my life has been pretty stressful. I honestly put down my camera and didn't even think about taking pictures. I also completely stopped my 365 (oh well).
Everything has been starting to calm down and now I'm able to take some time for myself. I've decided to pick my camera back up and have a fresh start! But I can't find my tripod and need a shower, so here is a picture of my studious golden retriever ( who is currently freaking out because there is a baby deer in my neighbors yard).
I'm going to take this week by week starting today!

Another entry for the 'Dictionary' project, thanks to all the people who've joined (over 200 already) i'm looking forward to seeing all your creations. I tried a different approach here, if you cant edit text in your software, you can always overlay a photo of the page from the dictionary itself.
