This is a treasure Andy.

I go on a treasure hunt nightly ~ all I have to do is close my eyes.

Ex animo, Alan

Sounds like a fun day was had.... the best bit of course is meeting up at the watering hole afterwards.
Could equally apply your words to lifes journey.

The Book of Life.
dusk arising said:

Yes indeed the music is sublime.

Online i found this quote, and it is so appropriate for your piece today:-
\"A great deal of literature is only the obvious transformed into the sublime\"

The Book of Life.
kevin browne said:

And to imagine reading the new chapters in your life. It will have poetry wrutten all over it, There tends to be a ceertain reminding factor of a sudden moment in times appkies the feeling of did I just turn 21 or was it 50. A good book with chapters stamped on your heart...

All we need to do is turn the page \'\'

The Book of Life.
orchidee said:

I can\'t help but see the spiritual \'Book of Life\' in this. Even if only sparks or small flame at times - we are still in it if believers, I believe.
Otherwise I\'ve been in the wrong \'chapter\' since age 3, when I began Sunday School!

Strong is Quiet.
Clara said:

Such truth in these words. For sometimes those who shout the loudest, do indeed feel the weakest. Simply overcompensating. Like you said, there\'s strength in silence and quiet resilience. Great piece of work Goldfinch60.

There are reasons for both yet the quiet are often the strongest inside. A fine verse to ponder on for the weekend and thank you dear Andy.

Strength and steadfastness needs no noise and bluster. In the face of condemnation the truth is still the truth.

Darker days still have a light to show us and lead us.

orchidee said:

A fine write Gold. We\'ve fiddled about with BST. The Autumnal Equinox later this month should give us 12 hours light, and 12 hours dark. Though we shall get 13 hours light and 11 hours dark. Something like that anyway!
A 25 hour day in October - end of BST. Ready for 1066 yet?

State of Death.
Suresh said:

We only exist as perceived by others, in real time when alive and in memories afterwards.
Both life and afterlife are continuation in the sequence of existence, separated by pauses, we call death.

State of Death.
Michael Edwards said:

When I had my near death experience late last year I felt as if I was floating on clouds without any cares. When I was resuscitated I recalled the experience as a being something of extreme peace and ever since the idea of death doesn\'t phase me one bit.

State of Death.
Clara said:

This is a wonderful perspective to take on death. I like the idea of that... Death is the memory of you. Living on in people\'s minds. Rather comforting.

I Can Listen.
FineB said:

Hi Goldfinch60,

A great write.

The secret to life and longevity is don\'t think age live your life.

My dad is 81 and he thinks he\'s at the prime of his life well he thinks he\'s 21 at times.

Keep writing FineB
