Lovely quotes:
“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.” ~ Mary Oliver
"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." ~ Dalai Lama
“Time is a created thing. To say ‘I don’t have time’ is to say, ‘I don’t want to’.” ~ Lao Tzu
I love these- I always think of the description I read in a book- which was set in the late 1800’s – when I was a child- it called them Devil’s Darning Needles & said they would sew up a child’s lips if they lied. (I know that sounds horrible – but I thought it fascinating)
Greatly ~ Beautiful!! I love dragonflies…I hardly ever see them, but when I do I stop and follow their little zig-zagging trail.
Hope you are having a fab weekend!
Holy crap but that’s an amazing photo!!

My 10-year-old was very impressed (him being the ‘bug man’ and the man of few words that he is said “cool…but how?”)
