I know what you're thinking—
You wonder why I chose her
Out of all the ladies in the world.
That's just a first impression—
What good's a first impression?
If you knew her like I do,
It would change your point of view.

The Erluanbi, or Eluan Pi or Eluanbi, lighthouse was completed in 1883, following requests from the American and Japanese governments to the Chinese governnent after several shipwrecks occurred in the 1860s. Chinese troops had to be sent to protect the lighthouse during construction from attacks by local tribesmen, and the lighthouse was surrounded by a fort with cannons and a ditch for protection[2]. It is one of the rare examples in the world of a fortified lighthouse. The lighthouse itself is 21.4 m high and its light is 56.4 m above the tidal high water. The light flashes every 10 seconds and it range is 27.2 nautical miles. (from Wikipedia)
All the time that you were standing by my side
She's that picture perfect kind
I can't believe i was so blind
Do you remember the time
You know i stepped across that line
I made you cry and that's my crime
I wish that i could just rewind
And I remember our first embrace,
That smile that was on your face,
The promises that we made.
And now, your love is my reward,
And I love you even more,
Than I ever did before.
I will not be on much for the next two weeks as my son & family are arriving tomorrow. Wil do my best.
When the weather forecast brings rain for days..you head to the mall! When you have this thing for "shoes"...well..you head to your favorite shoe store and you cheer yourself up! Aren't these wild! Happy Monday!

Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time,
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much.
Are you still mine?
I need your love, i need your love, god speed your love to me.
It's a magic carpet ride
Every door will open wide
To happy people like you--
Happy people like
What a beautiful
Peace of mind...Taken this image on my way back from work a while ago...Thought of giving my new toys a little try-outs on sunset photography.

A shadow from the sky much too big to be a bird
A screaming crashing noise louder than I've ever heard
It looked like two big silver trees that somehow learned to soar
Suddenly a summer breeze and a mighty lion's roar
Will not a tiny speck very close to our vision blot out the glory of the world, and leave only a margin by which we see the blot? I know no speck so troublesome as self.

Fact or fiction...Some butterflies have evolved symbiotic and parasitic relationships with social insects such as ants. Some species are pests because in their larval stages they can damage domestic crops or trees; however, some species are agents of pollination of some plants, and caterpillars of a few butterflies (e.g., Harvesters) eat harmful insects.
