"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise."

Little Lotte thought of everything and nothing. Her hair was golden as the sun's rays and her soul as clear and blue as her eyes.

A bit tired, but also happy and content with my life :-)
Our lives are better left to chance.
I could have missed the pain,
but then I'd have had to miss the dance

tired...
The source of any bad writing is the desire to be something more than a person of sense--the straining to be thought a genius. If people would say what they have to say in plain terms, how much eloquent they would be.

Slightly better, think my cold is not progressing anymore. And relieved: we're finally connected on the 'net in this peculiar house!![]()
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ~ Mark Twain
I am in a creepy good mood. Not sure why.
Wonderful today! Last night I got to see my little pumpkin (my grandbaby, Brooke)....here she is being introduced to a real pumpkin - her look says it all - like this - "what the heck is this big orange thing, anyway?"

Janine, that photo of Brooke is really great! She just looks so adorable! I think you interpreted her thoughts pretty well
I'm so tired of dealing with my new flatmates...why on earth did I agree I'd be the one paying the phone/internet bill by direct debit? I'm going to change it, even if it means paying an extra 5 quid!

There are only two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as if everything is.

a little sick
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
Excited... Nervous... Happy...

refreshed in spirit, and musing intent
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
Amazingly good actually... Must be the dancing
I dream of a better world where chickens can cross the road without their motives being questioned...
