LIFE
Life isn't about dawdling to the grave, arriving safely in an attractive, wrinkle-free body but rather an adventure that ends skidding in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, totally worn out, screaming "Yee-ha. What a ride!!"
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… It’s about learning to dance in the rain. (With thanks to shabby girl of A Travelling Fish )
But what are plans other than more restrictions? (With thanks to Pauline)

You caught a swallow in flight. It is misty though so perhaps it was going slow.
ReplyDeleteI know just how they feel.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing them arrive around here soon! Not until this storm passes though, goodness knows where they would end up.
ReplyDeleteI really like this photo, Graham. Sorry that I haven't been sharing my thoughts much, but I am visiting...just been really overwhelmed with all that is going on right now :)
