Valuable Moments

Do not wait not for old age to wake you up to the true value of each moment.
~Martin Suarez

This was taken with my iPhone and Olloclip macro lens. 
I also tried to video this little guy ...not sure if he was washing himself or taking a drink.  Sorry for the shakiness of the video.  This video is a FIRST for me!

Nurture Your Dreams


Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.
― Lao Tzu

Seek with Joy

If you are seeking, seek us with joy 
For we live in the kingdom of joy. 
Do not give your heart to anything else 
But to the love of those who are clear joy, 
Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair. 
For there are hopes: they are real, they exist – 
Do not go in the direction of darkness – I tell you: suns exist.
~  Rumi
