Attitude

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by.

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts.

Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.

Ice-cream

The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions :

a sweet kiss, a smile, a kind look, or ….an Ice-cream.

And these are the simple things that brighten my day

adding meaning and flavor to my daily life.

Silent

"Listen" contains the same letters as "Silent".

Listen to the silence of the heart, hear what it says

so you'll know what will make you happy.

Get fresh !!

Summer is here!!!

GET FRESH ...

.. and Have a Great WEEKEND!

Life stands before me like an eternal spring with new and brilliant clothes.

Rules for Living

Do not worry,
eat three square meals a day,
say your prayers,
be courteous to your creditors,
keep your digestion good,
steer clear of biliousness, exercise, go slow and go easy.
Maybe there are other things that your special case requires to make you happy, but, my friend, these, I reckon, will give you a good life.

- A.L.

FLY

Actias Artemis is a beautiful moth native to Japan as well as

Korea, China, India and Malaysia.

 Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
                                                                         Fly, fly precious one
                                                                         Your endless journey has begun
                                                                         Take your gentle happiness
                                                                         Far too beautiful for this
                                                                         Cross over to the other shore
                                                                         There is peace forevermore
                                                                         But hold this mem'ry bittersweet
                                                                         Until we meet
Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forget
                                                                                           Fly, fly little wing
                                                                                           Fly where only angels sing
                                                                                           Fly away, the time is right
                                                                                           Go now, find the light   

(Celine Dion)

Landscape

"Ever charming, ever new,
when will the landscape tire the view??"

- John Dyer

Love is in the air

     Love is in the air
     Everywhere I look around
     Love is in the air
     Every sight and every sound  

                                                             And I don't know if you're an illusion
                                                             Don't know if I see it true
                                                             But you're something that I must believe in
                                                             And you're there when I reach out for you

Not all scars show,

not all wounds heal,

sometimes you can't always see the pain someone feels.

Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths. ~Etty Hillesum

Memory

Zermatt - Switzerland

Memory is a way of holding on
to the things you love,
the things you are,
the things you never want to lose.
- Kevin Arnold

Füssen - southwest Bavaria - Germany

 

 

No dia que o peso se apoderar dos teus ombros, e tropeçares,

Que a terra dance, para equilibrar-te!

E, quando teus olhos congelarem,

Por trás da janela cinzenta,

E o fantasma da perda chegar a ti…

Que um bando de cores,

Índigo, vermelho, verde e azul celeste,

Venham dispertar em ti,

Uma brisa de alegria!

Quando a vela se apagar no barco do pensamento,

E uma sensação de escuro estiver sobre ti,

Que surja para ti, uma trilha de luar amarelo,

Para levar-te a salvo para casa!

Que o alimento da Terra seja teu…

Que a claridade da Luz te ilumine…

Que a fluidez do Oceano te inunde…

Que a proteção dos Antepassados esteja contigo!

E assim…

Que um vento teça essas palavras de amor à tua volta,

Num invisível manto para zelar por tua vida, onde estiveres!

Que este decreto se cumpra em Luz e Graça.

Assim Seja!

"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads, which sew people together through the years".

Simone Signoret

Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory

of a beginning and all fear of an end.
