Weekend Reflections #234: Beauty


“People are like stained-glass windows.  
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, 
but when the darkness sets in, 
their true beauty is revealed 
only if there is a light from within.”
~Elisabeth Kubler-Ross~

“A thing of beauty is a joy forever: 
its loveliness increases, 
it will never pass into nothingness.”
~John Keats~

“Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.”
~Khalil Gibran~

“To love beauty is to see light.”
~Victor Hugo~

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.”
~Confucius~

“The pursuit of truth and beauty 
is a sphere of activity in which 
we are permitted to remain children all our lives.”
~Albert Einstein~

“ I don‘t think of all the misery 
but of the beauty that still remains.”
~Anne Frank~

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
