"Become something painted in layers, in colors that will compliment when they begin to chip and peel, timeworn and faded, preferably by salt-flecked winds and four vivid seasons, yearly, over decades of time. Age like paint, like old wood, like stones and dirt and sand. Without thought or regret, without fear or pain, without consideration for the next thing." ~Susan Moorhead

There's a saying old Says that love is blind. Still we're often told "Seek and ye shall find." So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind.

Rosalind Russell's on my mind today...
A man is insensible to the relish of prosperity until he has tasted adversity.
Acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly. Flops are a part of life's menu and I've never been a girl to miss out on any of the courses. Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death. Success is a public affair. Failure is a private funeral. |
It is one of the superstitions of the human mind to have imagined that virginity could be a virtue. -Voltaire

Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. ~Author unknown, attributed to Mark Twain |
Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy.
Aristotle |
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
Aristotle |
It's just like magic. When you live by yourself, all your annoying habits are gone!

With me poetry has not been a purpose, but a passion.
|
Whether one is twenty, forty, or sixty; whether
one has succeeded, failed, or just muddled along; whether yesterday was full of sun or storm, or one of those dull days with no weather at all, life begins each morning! Leigh Mitchell Hodges |
It's possible to have too much in life. Too many clothes jade
our appreciation for new ones; too much money can put us out of touch with life; too much free time can dull the edge of the soul. We need sometimes to come very near the bone so that we can taste the marrow of life rather than its superfluities. Joan Chittister |
