MOMENT IN TIME

“Darling, we must go for a walk. Today is Monday and RESTLESS JO expecting our post*.

“Yes, my love. You know, THE WORLD IS A BOOK and we need to read at least one page daily. Than we might be invited to make an entry in the TRAVEL TALES OF LIFE.”

“My dear husband! Please let me check first! This old man from the “PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS” is very close. I don’t think that he is dangerous but people of his age are unpredictable.”

“How I love you, my dear wife! You always protect me and lead in the right direction. And your back and tail are so beautiful! I enjoy looking at them all time between meals!”

 

Togetherness

Below are two photos of a small triangular area with benches on it. It is not far from where we live.

One side of it borders the Queens boulevard with three lanes of traffic, two others – side streets’ traffic lanes.

There is no protection from the sun there and the air is full of gases from passing buses and cars.

However, there are always people there.

Some of them just sit alone, some talk with strangers.

What brings them to this area? There are many wonderful parks nearby.

I think that many people want always be in the center of events. They enjoy noise and dynamics of the big city much more than calmness and beauty of nature.

They want to feel that they are together with many other people.

Do you agree?

Sharing quotes

Elections are coming. It’s a good time to share quotes about politics and politicians with new followers and guests.

PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

My old friend sent me a message with quotes of famous people.

Some of these quotes are well-known.

Here are the quotes:

If we got one-tenth of what was promised to us in these State of the Union speeches, there wouldn’t be any inducement to go to heaven.

~Will Rogers~

Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river.

~Nikita Khrushchev~

When I was a boy I was told that anybody could become President; I’m beginning to believe it.

   ~Clarence Darrow~

Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich, by promising to protect each from the other.

~Oscar Ameringer~

A politician is a fellow who will lay down your life for his country.

~ Tex Guinan~
