Re: Daily muse
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority.

Re: Daily muse
Very nice one Alexa  I always like some humor.
this has always been one of my favorites:
I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.
D. H. Lawrence

Re: Daily muse
Sure I can train my cat! I've got him trained to sleep, eat, drool, rub my legs and beg for attention. He's a smart one.
