Red reflections



By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; 
and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
Confucius
(551BC-479BC)

I know of no more disagreeable sensation than to be left feeling generally angry without anybody in particular to be angry at.
Frank Moore
(1865-1925)

Loss and possession, death and life are one,
There falls no shadow where there shines no sun.
Hilaire Belloc
(1870-1953)


Struggling a bit to see colour in the world today, although I know it's there. 

Sometimes one just has to look a little harder and be prepared to accept subtleties and shadows I guess. Not necessarily a bad thing.

And tomorrow's Friday...

Yes, I hate being generally angry without anybody in particular to be angry at.

Perhaps you need to just find something, or things, to throw...like rocks at the water or soft tomatoes at an old barn wall. Vent, lady, vent!

And tomorrow's Friday...

All so true, and your photo conveys all the feelings shared here. Yeah, I'm with Leenie....vent! Venting can be cleansing.

Your words, quotes and photographs are always a pleasure Kenda...... AND today is Friday so I hope you see more and more colour as it gets closer to the weekend.....Maybe some sunshine yellow for Saturday.
