I kicked candy and now seem to be stuck with quotations, which are attacking my brain instead of my teeth :-)

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.."

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY
Sometimes in life we come full circle
I see a footprint of my beginning
and here I am back at the start
I see the people who tried to stop me winning
but I rise above them; and leave them far behind
I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand
and something deep inside me drives me on
no looking back; I am complete; I understand
sometimes in life we cannot win them over
it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand
and He will guide me on my journey
bring me safely to the shore
where angels sing; rejoice and hold me
and I will not be frightened any more
He sees in us the pain; the human burden
He sees the weight that life and people bring
He knows how much; He knows and He is certain
He will not give us more than we can take
so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing
and when at last our cup is brimming over
He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow
and we feel the greatest love that ever found us
and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow
and once more we are peaceful
finding joy in simple things
as darkness; shadows and all our plights
are left behind and taken care of;
whisked away on angel's wings
and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed
as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light
and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow
this moment we exist; and in this moment
I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

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

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
"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.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore

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 just feel happy to be in America, like I said, it's the most beautiful country in the world." Ahmed Ali
(See also "America the Beautiful" by Katharine Lee Bates. The three word title is used by many as a simple "stand-alone" quotation when referring to the nation's natural beauty and to the rights granted under the Constitution and Bill of Rights)
This is a black and white photograph of the Lighthouse erected on the Northern tip of Skopelos Island, Greece, at Cape Gourouni, viewed from afar. The 46-ft (14-m) high tower is rectangular and made of stone. The lighthouse has got a luminous range of 20 nautical miles; it functioned in 1884 for the first time.
The shot was inspired by the quotation from Virginia Woolf: ❝Lighthouses are endlessly suggestive signifiers of both human isolation and our ultimate connectedness to each other.❞
Mother Nature has the US in her grasp. I hope you are all warm and safe as this continues to pass through our lives.

A few hours earlier this long rubber fisherman's walkway had been flying through the air, tossed around by the strong winds blowing across Dungeness beach. It came to rest in this serendipitous form and just had to be photographed!

Created for Mixmaster 13 in the Artistic Manipulation Group following Chef Beth's recipe:
➤ Your image must be a pure, non-representational abstract.
➤ It may NOT contain any recognizable objects or beings. Note: it may be digital art from a blank canvas and/or a photo manipulation, as long as the subject of the photo is not recognizable in the final result.
➤ Your image must convey/embody an emotion.
➤ The title of your image must be a quotation that includes the name of whatever emotion you have chosen.
➤ Your image must use three distinct colors/hues (besides black and white which are optional). Note: light, medium and dark blue are NOT distinct hues; blue, green and purple are.
This abstract was created by collating and blending several of my own abstracts and textures in Photoshop Elements 13.
