Gotta see what's in there!




This is probably my favorite picture of my bird, he is like a little kid in this picture, always trying to get into everything. This just shows how much of a nosebag he really is! Taken this past Christmas and edited with Paint Shop Pro X... Currently my cover photo on my Facebook profile.

Prism of a Thousand Hues




With the first gleam of morning rays, the garden is a prism of a thousand hues refracted in tiny does of crystal dew, a dazzling quilt of millefleur colors covering the sleeping flower beds.

The summer night is like a perfection of thought

The summer solstice will occur one week from today, the longest day of the year. Although summer officially begins on that day, many people mark the start of the season when the Canada Day long weekend begins, even though it often does not fall on a Monday. The days are passing so quickly now, they seem to be the last few years or so. Are we wishing too many days to pass? Have our lives become so monotonous that each day we pray for the next to arrive? Surely not. Time is precious, it heals all wounds, but it takes people and precious things away too. We have to learn to deal with it, with everything that happens in our lives. The summer will fade into autumn, lets make the most of it....

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
John Lubbock


Light dancing amid shallow pools of cerulean,
swirling mercilessly, never ending.
Soothing winds brush against blooming gardens
of magenta and cobalt.
Petals rise, like butterflies attracted to the gold rays of the sun
…and are carried away.
With them flow the sweet smells of summer.

Just some words that make me smile... :)

It's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

I'm not the prettiest and I'm not the skinniest, but I'm honest and I'm real. And it will never get any better than that. =)

If I behaved, I'd die of boredom.

Women are angels, and when someone breaks our wings, we simply continue to fly .... on a broomstick. We are flexible like that...

Normal is ........ getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it. - Ellen DeGeneres

Dreaming is good, believing is better, making it happen is best.

Life is not about the number of breaths you take in a moment, it's about the num...ber of moments that take your breath away.

All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream. Edgar Allen Poe

Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, dreams are forever. - Walt Disney

Happiness most often comes unplanned and inexpectedly-- like a shooting star on a silent night.

Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you will land among the stars.

If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick up one of those pieces and begin again.

Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you only live this life once, so live it and be happy.

Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life. You don't have to live forever, you just have to live.

It's your life, what you gonna do?
The world is watching you.
Everyday the choices you make,
Say what you are and who your heart beats for.
It's an open door.

Believe in love
Believe in magic,
Hell, believe in Santa Claus.
Believe in others,
Believe in yourself.
If you don't, then who will?

So close no matter how far. Couldn't be much more from the heart. Forever trusting who we are. And nothing else matters. - Metallica, Nothing Else Matters

Todays Wisdom... Or is it?

PostSecret (this site is updated only once a week, so maybe I will choose a few posts from Sunday's Secrets to use here throughout the week).
