Outstretched Hands
The difference between a helping hand and an outstretched palm is a twist of the wrist.

Clear Thoughts
Thoughts come clearly while one walks.
- Thomas Mann
Have you ever noticed how troubled thoughts begin to sort themselves out when you go for a walk or a run?
I have. Walking boosts creativity and gets my ideas flowing which is an added benefit to exercise.
Now, however, thoughts turn to how to keep umbrellas from turning inside out due to the heavy winds and rains.
These Oaks are now stripped bare.
But oh, what a glorious show they put on this year!

Sweet Vegetables
Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread and pumpkin pie. - Jim Davis

I'd add Candy Corn to the list of suggestions, too!

The power of a button
These are not books, lumps of lifeless paper, but minds alive on the shelves. From each of them goes out its own voice... and just as the touch of a button on our set will fill the room with music, so by taking down one of these volumes and opening it, one can call into range the voice of a man far distant in time and space, and hear him speaking to us, mind to mind, heart to heart.
-Gilbert Highet

These yellow babies belong to my Mom. I saw them and instantly thought, “button, button, whose got the button!”
I know… don’t ask.
The quote for today’s image is almost an exact thought of mine.
I am really into reading lately and as I was reading I got to thinking how most people see a book as just lifeless sheets of paper with lots of words typed in them.
I’ve been seeing some as mirrors of my soul, my hopes and dreams.
I’ve read some that give me guidance and encouragement in areas of life that I struggle with.
And, there’s still others that make me laugh or cry and get so caught up in them I forget to turn out my light and go to sleep.
If it’s been a while…pick up a good book, find a comfy chair, a warm drink…and read.
I think you’ll be glad you did.

A beacon

A happy person is a beacon of light that shines across the darkest night to guide those across the rocky seas of life. - Holly Cregar Byerley, @JoviGirl8 ( via www.QuoteGarden.com )
Yellow trees this year are drawing me out of my cocoon.
To me they are like beacon's of light when I'm lost in a dark night.
*
They glow.
They shine.
They lead.
They beckon.
*
I am helplessly drawn to their beauty.

Lingering Words

I used to notice this in mine quite a bit.
Was it fear in speaking from my heart?
