I am old (compared to when I was in my 20's), but not ancient.......

smart (considering I am blond, naturally), but not wise....

alone, but not lonely (that really is a state of mind)......

proud (to be who I am), but not arrogant.....

quiet (when I need to be), but not silent (which comes easier).....

laughing at self ( and at this age there is much to laugh at), but not at others.....

I am who I am and I like myself....

Every thing is beautiful seen from the point of the intellect, or as truth. But all is sour, if seen as experience. ~Emerson~


Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission.~Eleanor Roosevelt~



My Interests

Mannequin by Antje's PhotoArt

..

To laugh often and love much:

To win respect of intelligent people

and the affection of children;

To earn the approbation of honest critics

and endure the betrayal of false friends;

To appreciate beauty;

To find the best in others;

To give one's self;

To leave the world a little better,

Whether by a healthy child,

A garden patch,

Or redeemed social condition;

To have played and laughed with enthusiasm

And sung with exultation;

To know even one life has breathed easier

Because you have lived...

This is to have succeeded.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

I'd like to meet:

My beautiful pen pal...and all those out there that still believe that everyone can make a difference in this world...and of course all those who appreciate photography and art.

Music:

all music

Television:

I do not watch enough to have an opinion....

Books:

Clouds.......

In life.....not every cloud can be a cloud 9 nor does every cloud have a silver lining.....yet, not every cloud forebodes a downpour either but rather shows a beautiful reflection of where we are......
