Friday; gladness;




Iceberg roses in my garden;


In the morning I drink my coffee and  look out into the garden, my heart sings when I see it green and fresh from the nightly rain…

Thursday; comfort;




Time for ease and comfort; Ts



Home is our comfort zone; Ts



Cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always. 




Simple things make life comfortable, a smile, kindness, a helping hand…Ts





As older  I get as more comfortable becomes the past. Ts



Every child needs a family's comfort.

Tuesday; sun play;


SUN


Found a keyhole at 6:50 AM




Here she comes, golden, tiny,  forcing her light  through the branches and leaves...6:51 AM



Here she is gilding everything around her...6:53 AM


Sunlight playing beautifully in the mighty Eucalyptus tree.  6:54 AM

Friday; thinkers;


Plato
Philosopher
Born: 427 BC, Athens, Greece
Died: 347 BC, Athens, Greece
Plato
a philosopher in Classical Greece, was also a mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues. Founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Along with his mentor, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle, Plato helped to lay the foundations of Western philosophy and science.

Plato's dialogues have been used to teach a range of subjects, including philosophy, logic, ethics, rhetoric, religion and mathematics.

Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.

All the gold which is under or upon the earth is not enough to give in exchange for virtue.



Jacek Yerka


Let parents bequeath to their children not riches, but the spirit of reverence.


Democracy... is a charming form of government, full of variety and disorder; and dispensing a sort of equality to equals and unequals alike.


No man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to persevere to the end in their nature and education.

Tuesday; Morning;

A new day is approaching...


Photo taken without flash;

It is  Tuesday, 6:13 AM. Through the window I can just make out the silhouettes of the nearest Paperbark tree. It looks very beautiful and very still. With my camera I try  and want to keep this moment, as daylight quickly seeps in from all directions.
   Blustering cackles of the Kookaburras and  the plain  cawing of some crows  keep pace with the approaching light.



Daylight;

Good Morning, have a nice day.

Monday; fantasy;


My granddaughter loves fantasy, another little note I found in one of my cookbooks.




The faculty or activity of imagining things that are impossible or improbable.

Fantasy is a genre of fiction that commonly uses magic and other supernatural phenomena as a primary plot.
Many works within the genre take place in imaginary worlds where magic and magical creatures are common. 
In popular culture, the fantasy genre is predominantly of the medievalist form, especially since the worldwide success of The Lord of the Rings and related books by J. R. R. Tolkien.
 In its broadest sense, however, fantasy comprises works by many writers, artists, film makers, and musicians, from ancient myths and legends to many recent works embraced by a wide audience today.



My garden and its little fantasy ;  every garden needs a little bit of fantasy;

 Fantasy has the inclusion of fantastic elements in a setting,  inspiration from mythology and folklore.  The fantastical element may be hidden, or  may leak into the real world setting. It may draw the characters into a world with such elements, or it may occur entirely in a fantasy world setting. Fantasy follows rules of its own,  allowing magic and other fantastic devices to be used.
