"The people I'm furious with
are the women's liberationists.
They keep getting up on soapboxes
and proclaiming
women are brighter than men.
That's true, but it should be kept quiet
or it ruins the whole racket."

- Anita Loos -
 New York Times, 10 February 1974

 

 ... I simply love this quote.
I hope that it makes you smile

"What is life?
It is the flash of a firefly in the night.
It is the breath of a buffalo
in the wintertime.
It is the little shadow
which runs across the grass
 and loses itself in the sunset."

- Crowfoot -
Blackfoot warrior and orator

"Only when the last tree has withered,
 and the last fish caught,
and the last river been poisoned,
will we realize we cannot eat money."

Just another week

Monday must be
The most horrible of days
But wait, please listen
Do not worry my friend
All Mondays must end
Tuesday morning will be
Faster will pass you will see
Wednesday is the midle
Some words I'ii write in a ridl
Let us make this winter day
A joyful and bright Thursday
Friday is certainly the best
You work with a smile
And just for a little while
Because tomorrow, Saturdat will be
And after Sunday will come
For you and me
And we will go on living
Another week has passed
Another will begin



Have a wonderful week dear friend
With Love

Cry Freedom


Cry freedom
With a quiet voice
Cry freedom
And rejoice.

Cry freedom
See the purest light
Cry freedom
With fresh sight.

Cry freedom
With a gentle will
Cry freedom
And be still.

Cry freedom
Till your heart does ache
Cry freedom
And awake.

Cry freedom
With a quiet voice
Cry freedom
And rejoice.




I wish you dear friend a wonderful weekend
With Love

"When our community is in a state of peace, it can share that peace with neighboring communities, and so on. When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace. And there are ways in which we can consciously work to develop feelings of love and kindness. For some of us, the most effective way to do so is through religious practice. For others it may be non-religious practices. What is important is that we each make a sincere effort to take our responsibility for each other and for the natural environment we live in seriously."
HH the Dalai Lama

A butterfly in the wind

A child is...
A butterfly in the wind,
Some can fly higher than others;
But each one flies the best they can.
Why compare one against the other?
Each one is different!
Each one is special!
Each one is beautiful!




I wish you a great friday and 
a wonderful weekend my special friend 
With Love

in the universe and he'll believe you.
Tell him a bench has wet paint on it
and he'll have to touch to be sure."

"A friend is someone
 who dances with you in the sunlight and,
 walks with you in the shadows.
 Is someone
 who stays there in silence and,
 hears what you say no mater the subject.
 Walks by your side and,
 behind you and catchs if you stumble.
 A FRIEND is a gift, a treasure to keep,to honour,
 whom we give a permanent place in our hearts."



... I love you sweet friend and,
 I wish you a wonderful weekend.

Kindness to Animals

Little children, never give
Pain to things that feel and live
Let the gentle robin come
For the crumbs you save at home
As his meat you throw along
He’ll repay you with a song.
Never hurt the timid hare
Peeping from her green grass lair
Let her come and sport and play
On the lawn at close of day.
The little lark goes soaring high
To the bright windows of the sky
Singing as if t'were always spring
And fluttering on an untired wing
Oh! Let him sing his happy song
Nor do these gentle creatures wrong.



... and a blessed week sweet friend
With Love
Ana

Let Me Live
The darkness is closing in
Soon I will be gone
Why do I deserve this?
I've done nothing wrong.
I'm thrown in to a crate
I feel so cold and alone
I wonder what's next
The future is unknown.
Hundreds of others around me
Screaming for their parents
I know they will not come
They've been shot protecting us.
Everyday this happens
Innocent animals killed for money
Another day, another kill
It's not the one bit funny.
Do your self a favour
If not for you, for your future kids
Save us endangered animals
Please just let us live!
by Amy Carnes (aged 10)

Our Friendship

Our friendship is like an ocean
That goes down so deep
I compare it like a rose
Whose beauty you want to keep.

Our friendship is like a river
That I know will never end
I see it like a dove
With a beautiful message to send.

Our friendship is like a song
That goes on and on forever
It is in our hearts prisoner
That will be free for ever.

Ana

A Special World

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

... with Love

Ana

A true Friend

A true friend never walks away
A true friend will always stay
A true friend looks out for you

A true friend tries to make you smile
Tries to replace that frown
They may not always succeed
But they rarely let you down

My arms for you are open
This heart for you does care
And when I think you need me
I'll try to always be there.



... with Love
Ana

Friends

There's nothing as nice
As someone who shares,
Your laughter, your secrets,
Your wishes and cares,
Someone who's there
Through your good times and tears,
Who stays by your side
As your friend through the years.




... with Love

Ana
