We may be apart but when I look at the sky and remember that we are standing on the same earth, looking at the same moon, somehow you don't seem so far away after all.
NOTES FROM THE ISLE OF LEWIS IN SCOTLAND'S OUTER HEBRIDES AND ANYWHERE ELSE I HAPPEN TO FIND MYSELF

SO NEAR
We may be apart but when I look at the sky and remember that we are standing on the same earth, looking at the same moon, somehow you don't seem so far away after all.
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)

Feeling young is fabulous but growing old is a blessing!!!

Lovely shapes and tones in the first image, - I think it's a great photo. The second is cute but not as artistic :)
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of the black cat. A great one to enlarge, print off and frame. xoxo
ReplyDeleteSome could learn a great deal from a patient cat, for sure!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I bet that you didn't feed them - x
ReplyDeleteThat black cat sure looks like he is up to something.....hope it didn't pick a fight with the other one.
ReplyDeleteI guess Ms. Brownie Whitey is waiting patiently on a lizard to take down....patience is a virtue.
Had to do a double-take - the ginger and white looks just like my rascally cat Stan. Stan brought a rabbit to the door on Friday morning... a still kicking rabbit. Ugh. Lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is special, I agree with Jenny. And somehow I don't think I'd like to be whoever the second cat is waiting for...
ReplyDeleteCats are fascinating to watch. I like cats, but have not had one in my home for many, many years. My mom's cat was somewhat psyco. I was intimidated by her, but she couldn't help it. Very traumatic upbringing. Poor girl.
