---------------------- On considering systems changes I've posted some of the steps that were taken by intelligent people in the past over on Opening Yesterday's Pages. I posted about Eleanor Roosevelt and the UN Declaration of Human Rights. ------------------------- The chocolate chip banana nut bread. Yes, I cut it too soon and the chocolate chips smeared all around...it's very very sweet! |







Very true, that first quote!
ReplyDeleteIt is worth considering!
DeleteIt really is!
DeleteThe first quote is so true! The banana bread looks and sounds delicious.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a great day!
Thanks. Hope your Wednesday is also great.
Delete...amen to Ranta Suzuki!
ReplyDeleteA good start for the day, and to end the day.
DeleteI love the gypsy painting.
ReplyDeleteI thought of how these travelers would cross the countryside, but not be received in the same way as the "foreigners" in the Walk for Peace.
DeleteThat van Gogh is in our local art museum,on Princeton campus, mostly gifts from wealthy alums! I've seen it a number of times, smaller than you'd think.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is precious, no matter the size. I've always had a place in my heart for travelers...no matter where they were from, or going.
DeleteI love the Van Gogh--I've always coveted a Gypsy caravan,
ReplyDeleteThe days may be gone when we could have horse drawn caravans...and then find coves to park them in...but I think campers do still love the outdoors, campfires, dealing with bugs (Not) and rain (not) and heat...well, it is romanticized a bit in memory and paint!
DeleteOh yes, treasure the moments and the sunsets, and the snow! and the cake, and make sure to smile. Thank you for sharing all this.
ReplyDeleteIt goes both ways...I enjoy seeing your well captured photos of town and country-side, thanks to blogger and the internet. Otherwise my dreams of being a gypsy would have fewer images to consider!
DeleteWe should always remember that first quote because it's so true. Love the view of the window.
ReplyDeleteYes, any moment doing anything is the most important, last, most cherished time to do just that! I look more to the verbs in life these days, less to the nouns (people, things etc.)
