Once I Was A Palm Tree


In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on. Robert Frost


We are what we repeatedly do. - Aristotle 



Don't be afraid to try something new. An amateur built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic. - unknown




Looks Like Life To me...............Life goes on

 Jesus said to her,
"I am the ressurection and the life, He who believes in me will live, even though he dies. Whoever lives and belives in me, will never die. Do you believe this?"
John 11: 25-26

Life goes on...

This made me think of the words of the wise and witty, George Carlin.
He said something to the effect that we don't have to worry about the planet surviving. It has done so for millenia. It's we human beings who will destroy ourselves.

You've certainly found interesting tree cavities lately, with new life coming from the remnants of the old. Makes you think, doesn't it.

I like your quotes -- and the pictures. Life does go on regardless of how bleak the outlook may be.

Yes, Sandra, life does go on... Even through the ups and downs of life, it does go on... We need to jump on the boat and go with it!!!!!!!

Great post... Love the quotes.

Well, I still see plenty of life going on around this tree-no-more. In looking again at your header, it's amazing to me that you got such a perfect shot from a blind snap!

Love the Titanic quote! Life does go on and it seems to be moving in on the tree trunk. I really like the first shot with the reflections on the water.

I am no photographer but it looks like the Nikon takes good pictures to me. An expert may see something I don't see?? Good pics and good sentiments!
