Summer Delight

Summertime is always the best of what might be.

Captured with my iPhone and Olloclip lens.   That little flower he is on is the first milkweed bloom. Once the milkweed blooms I start seeing more and more butterflies - so Milkweed is a True Delight of Summer!

One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.

Lessons from the Journey

The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.

~Don Williams, Jr.

Ant - On the Edge

Sometimes when you think you are done, it is just the edge of beginning. Probably that's why we decide we're done. It's getting too scary. We are touching down onto something real. It is beyond the point when you think you are done that often something strong comes out.  
~ Natalie Goldberg

The Ant - A Small Wonder

 The true way to be humble is not to stoop until you are smaller than yourself, but to stand at your real height against some higher nature that will show you what the real smallness of your greatness is. 
~ Phillips Brooks
