According to Buddha
If you are infected with the germs of worry you should go on a strict mental diet. You should feast regularly on the society of joyful minds. Every day you should associate, if only for a little while, with joy-instilled persons–those who meditate and feel the joy of spirit as a reality. Seek them out and feast with them on this most vitalising food of joy. Feast on laughter in the company of these really joyful people. Steadfastly continue your laughter diet once you have begun it, and at the end of a month or two you will see the change–your mind will be filled with sunshine.
well, i could play you
play you the blues
to help carry the load
while you’re paying your dues
but i got soul
i got sweet soul
soul
you’ve been often
misunderstood
you been tossed and tangled
in search of what’s good

“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”(Emmerson)

I like a world where the edges blur into something colorful, as if the world itself were the lens. And what are we looking at again? Delightful images as always, Hedy!

Love the colours that go straight through all the photos.
yes I tired my best to get the 3 to blend that way…it was fun to fiddle with…so many things to learn for me on LR…it’s all fun and practice Rabirius 🤓💫 have a wonderful day smiles from Hamburg ✌️🤓
Oh, so you’re traveling in Europe. Which places do you plan to go to?
here in Hamburg for another week for basketball, then Berlin and then Amsterdam 💫☺️🤓 feelings of gratitude ❤️ are you in Hamburg now Rabirius?
No. I’m in Frankfurt.
to me,
u r like
a rainbow!
awe that’s kind David…I like rainbows too…we’ve had a few this summer…these were suppose to look like film leaks but rainbows are best…thank you for the song too…I love it! ☺️💫✌️❤️
Between the “quote” and the rainbow-hued images, you made me smile, Hedy. Hanging with you certainly qualifies as feasting with someone who has a joyful mind. I am the better for it. 🙂
I am a happy person…not many days that I hang in a pity party…but I embrace all emotions and a joyful mind and heart is mostly what I’ve always been…the rainbow was called film leak…I practiced it from a preset…I liked playing with it to get it balanced…smile hedy 😆❤️
I wondered – thanks! Hopefully your own film leaks will remain colorful forever….
I had seen some other fotos with this ‘look’ so I thought I’d try…went out of my comfort zone…it’s a sort of one time thingy I think 🤓☺️💫
Another delightful post Hedy expressed through your well chosen words and photos. Always a joy.
Mike and Lori appreciate your comments…have a wonderful and creative day ~ smile hedy ☺️💫✌️
