Fantasy and imagination are emotionally delightful, but not to overdo.

Epicurus….one more
June 12, 2013
This is one, on a personal level, that has always touched my life. “Of all the things which wisdom provides to make us entirely happy, much the greatest is the possession of friendship.”
Epicurus
June 11, 2013
was an ancient Greek philosopher. His words timeless. “You don’t develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.”
“It is not so much our friends’ help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.”
“Not what we have But what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance.”
“I have never wished to cater to the crowd; for what I know they do not approve, and what approve I do not know.”
……..and a favorite , but not sure which of the Greek philosophers to credit. “Happiness==friends, free thought, and knowing yourself.”
Words of wisdom to enjoy and perhaps live by.
An observation: I think I’m the oldest or one of the oldest on Twitter…Just saying!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this quote…for all women of all ages….
Coco Chanel…………………………..” a woman could be gorgeous at 20, charming at 40, and irresistible for the rest of her life.”…………………………………I’ll drink to that..CHEERS!
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, and the other is as though everything is a miracle.”
Scent Memories
June 10, 2013
I am always looking for the elusive wonderful perfect scent. I remember fondly Faberge Straw Hat, long since discontinued. Lovely, lilting, lasting scents bring back many memories of the hunt. My husband and I were at the theatre over 30 years ago, and a woman walked by. I stood in back of her taking the scent in. I had to find out what it was. The line was moving, and needed to make my move, so quietly I asked “if I may, what is the perfume you are wearing.” She turned around and very sweetly said, Tuberose by Mary Chess and it’s so inexpensive. A large bottle for $7.50″..Of course it became my favorite until that too was discontinued….and the elegant beautiful woman who gave me the information……Gloria Vanderbilt.
Lack of judgement comes from strong emotions: anger, fear, romantic love, and intoxication.
Alain Resnais Film
June 9, 2013
Having a bit of a conversation with someone about the Resnais film who wanted to know why he equates unhappiness with loneliness….my answer? Emotional twins. Any thoughts?
French Film
June 8, 2013
Name of Alain Resnais’s film is “You Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet.”…one of those films that requires attention and to read a little about what you are going to experience. As one review said,”totally ,meta, metaphorical, and metaphysical.”
mother nature is a man and other observations..
