Silently Away



"The days come and go like muffled and veiled figures sent from a distant friendly party, but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away."
                                                                                            Ralph Waldo Emerson

Sometimes I do this. I don't use the gifts I am given.

Mary - I found your blog through Nancy Medina's blog. I'm going to try to stop drooling over your remarkable photos as I write this. Wow.
A request: could I use the quote you used from Ralph Waldo Emerson on my blog?
Thanks either way - you've made my day,Robin
