Hold fast to your dreams....

Hold fast to your dreams, for without them life is a broken 

winged bird that cannot fly. 

Langston Hughes 

Hi my friends,

Here I am back again for a quick posting. 

I'm wishing you a wonderful weekend! 

Keep this quote above in mind, it's a perfect one - I love it! 

See you back next week again here on the same spot, o.k.?

Susanne

I'm saying now GOOD BYE to you my dear friends. 

This will be my last post for a while - today is the 6. year anniversary 
of this blog - it's time to rest a little bit, time to breath fresh air.


I had a great time, I learned a lot and I met so many wonderful people, like YOU! Thanks for all your loyal visits, for your inputs and kind comments over the years. I love you ALL!

It's time for me now to do something else, it's time to think about new directions to go. You'll still see me blogging here and there but no more every day, like I did. So, please come back from time to time, once a week (or maybe twice) and say "Hello" to my humbled, slowly aging blog - I will be happy to see you visiting again. :-))

And I'll tell you later more about all that new stuff I'll be doing, o.k.? :-))

Stick with me and thank you for everything!

Susanne :-)

I'm NOT ugly....

I'm not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation. 

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel 

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday, my friends!


Next Sunday will be a SPECIAL DAY for me and my blog. 
It's anniversary day - Yeah :-))))


After 6 years of blogging I'm not that sure if I will continue this blog... and it's hard for me to make this decision. 


"My baby" is now 6 years old and it is like in the real world, I don't want to let "my baby" go away, separated from me - and I'll be maybe forgotten too. 


But, I also would love to have time to do more creative work or even to learn something very different and new - away from photography, looking maybe for a new challenge in this world wide web of possibilities.


Well, as you can feel, I really don't have made up my mind right now.
Stay with me, first of all we will celebrate together next Sunday - the Champagne is ready - it's open house here...come in! :-))


Blogging almost every day for 6 years is quiet a long time, I have made some really nice friends from all over the world - I'm so thankful for that and I really don't want to loose YOU! 

Susanne

*** Bring Colors to your life ***

You have enemies?

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life. 

Winston Churchill 

Hi my friends,

I can not tell you how much I do love this quote! 

Think about a little bit over weekend..... :-))

Thank you so much for the comments to my last posts.

Dave had a very bad day yesterday and it was not exciting at all, we spent the whole day in two emergency rooms - yes two... Today he is sleeping a lot, still recovering. I had some scary moments with him, yesterday!

Thanks for coming back to my humbled blog - I'll see you also on Sunday 

to my "wordless Sunday" photo, right? I appreciate that.

Have a nice weekend - take care to each other 

you'll never know when it's over!

Bait with your heart.....

When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain. 

Mark Twain

Sunday will be my wordless Sunday again - come back to see me!

A few sharp lines....

In nature there are few sharp lines.

A. R. Ammons 

Hi my friends,

today just a short reminder, how beautiful nature can be, in shape and color.

Captured in front of our house in our new environment.

Wishing you a great Friday - weekend is here, yeah!

Sunday I'll post my "Wordless Sunday" photo again and 

come back for a short visit :))

Thanks for the kind comments to my last post, very much appreciated!

Let us always meet with smile....

Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.

Mother Teresa

Hi my friends,

I'm baaaaack.......!  

I hope you all had a great time. Dave and I were very busy the last three days. 

First we were busy and after that just tired - moving is not that much fun! 

Our (old!) bones are telling that too...... :))

We are looking forward now to a new good life with way more peace in mind and relaxing moments than we had on the old place. 

Life is good, right? I hope it's that way for you too!

Sending you a BIG smile today!

Love is a Springtime Plant...

Love is a springtime plant that perfumes everything with its hope, even the ruins to which it clings.

Gustave Flaubert

A Reflection of Something...

Everyone and everything that shows up in our life is a reflection of something 

that is happening inside of us.

Alan Cohen

Hi my friends,

I like this quote and it matches well the picture of  reflections of clouds on the surface of the lake, near by where I'm living. Thank you also for all the nice comments I get to my last "Wordless-Sunday" posting. Gladly appreciated!

I wish you a wonderful day - let the sunshine in - Yeah, spring is here! :)

You're an Oldtimer....

You're an old-timer if you can remember when setting the world on fire was a figure of speech.

Franklin P. Jones

Hi my friends,

Nice to see you again! I had no time yesterday to post anything. Once a week I have to do also my "homework" and that means: shopping, cleaning etc. all that stuff I don't like to do... :))

Thank you very much for your kind comments and visits, I appreciate it.

I hope you like my today's photo and the quote :)

Have a wonderful Thursday everybody!

~Susanne

You cannot ever be ugly

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly.  You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.  

~Roald Dahl~

Hi my friends,

I love this quote! 

Quotes are always telling the true of meanings in life and are mirroring the good and bad things happen around you - quotes are like talking pictures.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for the comments too. Sometimes I wish, there would be some more, but that's fine with me how it is now. I know you all have a lot of things going on in these days - Christmas is just around the corner.

If you're looking for a special gift for that special someone, maybe I have the answer to it:

Buy my photography as a print, framed or stretched on Canvas here. 

Happy Tuesday!

~Susanne

oh, I almost forget to tell you: it's only 37F in Florida, just now! brrrrr....brrrr....

Make your mental blue print

Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. 

Make your mental blue print, and begin to build.
Robert Collier

Hi my friends,

I like this quote very much and it's true. 

Everything in life begins with a mental blueprint. 

Let's start today!

Thank you for all your kind comments, they are like always, very much appreciated.

~Susanne
