Strange is our situation here on Earth. Each of us come for a short visit, not knowing why, yet...
sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men. Above all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends.

Don't mind me. I've only in a B&W mood lately.)
Gosh, this week has gone over so fast! Here I am, and all I want is a relaxing weekend!
Hope you have a wonderful one! xx
P.S. So things have been ridiculously hectic around here...my job has been keeping me pretty busy lately.
I haven't been able to do as much visiting as I like to...and I'm really sorry about that. But I will do my best to get back to you asap!

Oh ja, eine sehr berechtigte Frage ohne Antwort, warum wir auf dieser Erde sind, was wir wollen und wohin wir gehen. Gut, was wir wollen, sind wir erstmal da, das ist oft schon klar, wohin wir einmal gehen, auch das ist uns vorbestimmt, doch warum sind wir hier, und nur für einen doch recht kurzen Aufenthalt, tja, das wissen vielelicht die Sterne, doch sie sprechen so leise, wir hören es nicht...
Lieben Gruß und Sonne im Herzen

this is a beautiful post.
i appreciate you stopping by as you have time! blessings to you for a wonderful, relaxing, soul-filling weekend. :)
Lovely post. We are looking forward to a relaxing weekend, too. We've had something that we had to do every day this week and this is supposed to be vacation. This weekend we will "veg." Love it. :)
And thanks for such lovely things to picture in our minds on the weekend - You too.
Betty, what gorgeous, fabulous photos! I hope that things calm down at work and that you have some time soon to let the colour back into your life (unless you prefer the greys for now, in which case, keep calm and carry on!) Have a fabulous weekend!
Beautiful captures and such wise words, Betty! Thanks for sharing them both! I hope you get to relax and enjoy the weekend and may it be filled with more of the beauty that you've shared with us today!!
Hi Betty,
very beautiful this pictures!
Have a nice weekend!
Ooh, I just HAVE to try my hand at some black & white pics! Have a blessed weekend, Betty!
Love the B&W - have a happy weekend, Betty!
Fantastic photograph, superb views. I am greeting
Great photos, quotes and words! (I'm still searching for my purpose)
Awesome pictures and great quotes.
Have a nice weekend!
Maravilloso Post y gran Cita de Einstein.
Es cierto; el ritmo de vida nos deja, a veces, en B&W.
En cualquier caso; eso es momentáneo y siempre aparecerá el Color de nuestra Sonrisa y Mirada.
Un abrazo y besos.
WOW! Beautiful collage and b&w!
Have a great weekend!
Love the words...and those black and white images, beautiful
Que hermosas capturas. Te ha quedado un B&N precioso.
Un abrazo
Very nice photos with a beautiful light. Excellent silhouette.
I really love that last moon shot - it is amazing!!!
Here is hoping for a peaceful and relaxing weekend for you to recharge your batteries and be ready for nextweek.
There's colour inside. Even in the black and white.
Lovely B&W photos and post. I love the quotes too. I wish you a very happy and relaxing weekend.
I'd like to be taking a break this weekend, but I have two field trips to drive, a highschool football game tomorrow and a trip up the Cascade Mountains to an environmental camp on Sunday afternoon, then work again on Monday...
Great shots and the quotes are wonderful! Have a great weekend, and don't worry about catching up! Sometimes you just have to say forget it!
Beautiful peaceful shots, and peaceful words to accompany them. Just what you need after a hectic week, me too! Enjoying the sunshine today, taking it easy. Have a great weekend Betty. Gx

Water and sun make a stunning combo, don't you think.

Beautiful shining shots, Betty - b&w simply enhances the sunny feelings. Not to worry about visiting - when you have the time; there are other priorities.
Hope your weekend is a good one.
Esta vez nos presentas unos admirables paisajes a contraluz, con un fondo de esperanza.
