Lessons




"What is the most important lesson life has taught you?"

"Nothing is just. Everything leads to something else."

from an interview with Jennifer Hudson in the Guardian.

"Let it go
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don't you know
The hardest part is over
Let it in
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels 

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours still remain 

Let it slide
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Till you feel it all around you
And i don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by

It's the heart that really matters in the end"

from Little Wonders
Theme song from " Meet the Robinsons"

"Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could. Some
blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.
Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it
serenely and with too high a spirit to be
encumbered with your old nonsense.”
                              
Ralph Waldo Emerson
 
 
I have been attemped to get shots of the
Crossbills in our neighbourhood, this
female was actually feeding on our front
yard. My blunder was using the autofocus
I got great shots of the spruce cones next
to her.

only to see it coming toward you like
the thunderstorm which drenched you yesterday.”
