Taken for Caturday theme quotations. The quote is: When you wake up each morning, you can choose to be happy or choose to be sad. Unless some terrible catastrophe has occurred the night before, it is pretty much up to you. Tomorrow morning, when the sun shines through your window, choose to make it a happy day. Lynda Resnick
You come across an old typewriter, perhaps in a junk shop. No-one else is around. You have an opportunity to type a few words on the paper, anonymously. What will you write?
"..because nothing makes me happier
and nothing makes me sadder than you.."

“Two bubbles found they had rainbows on their curves.
They flickered out saying:

"Dinner for one" is the most played skizze in german TV - no silvester without it:-)
It was listed in 1988 in the Guinness Book of Records as "the world's most frequently repeated television production".
“There’s a saying that goes, ‘People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.' OK. How about, ‘Nobody should throw stones’? That’s crappy behaviour. My policy is, ‘No stone throwing regardless of housing situation.’”
—Demetri Martin
OK, obviously this isn’t a house. It’s an igloo lounge where you can sit and rest if you want to get out of the cold. Anyway, I found the quotation above, and I thought it fit. :)
When you're not being able to do much there's always technology to make you have a dialogue with your many florals, which I did yesterday. Many quotes spring to mind, but I chose this one.
"The artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and harmonious tinted nuances of their blossoms. Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs to him" ~ August Rodin
"Camouflage is a game we all like to play,
but our secrets are as surely revealed
by what we want to seem to be
as by what we want to conceal."
~ Russell Lynes ~
Interesting, I had no idea who was famous for this quotation until
I looked up Russell Lynes in Wikipedia and discovered
he was "an American art historian, photographer, author and managing editor of Harper's Magazine."
You learn something new every day!
"If there ever comes a day
Where we can't be together,
Keep me in your heart.
I'll stay there forever." -- Winnie the Pooh
For Poetography group: Some topics speak to me more than others and this week is a good example. Our word is leaf, or leaves.
They started cutting down the forest behind our house yesterday to build homes. I hoped this wouldn't happen too soon even though we were told to anticipate it. It's still tough.
“Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.”

Love grows when we work at it.
Love overlooks a multitudes of faults.
Love will bring us together.
Love finds away to get together.
Love will keep us together.

I come across another funny Quotation on FaceBook and wanted to share this with you all. Have a fantastic day, everyone!

Quotations from Augustine of Hippo, asking for God's enlightenment. The second quote refers to:
James 1:16 Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. (World English Bible, public domain.)

Notice the oak tree catkins on the leaves. I have never seen so many of these before. They are everywhere!
"A single oak tree produces both male and female flowers. The male flowers are tiny yellow structures that grow along a slender stalk. The stalked structure is called a catkin. The stalk with its flowers looks a bit like a yellow worm dangling from the tips of the oak branches. The female flowers are small pink to red structures that are also located near the twig tip. The male flowers produce pollen which is carried by wind to female flowers, often on a different tree. The amount of pollen produced by a large oak tree is enormous and the flowers continue producing pollen for several weeks. Unlike flowers that are pollinated by bees or other animals, the pollen of oaks floats freely in the air and is inhaled by people. Many people are allergic to oak pollen and the large amounts and long duration of oak pollen production can make oaks one of the more serious spring allergens."
~ University Of Mount Union
Unfortunately, I am one of those with an allergy to oak pollen.
