Standing Tall
You are stronger than you think-remember to stand tall.
Every challenge in your life helps you to grow.
Every problem you encounter strengthens your mind and your soul.
Every trouble you overcome increases your understanding of life.
When all your troubles weigh heavily on your shoulders,
remember that beneath the burden you can stand tall,
because you are never given more than you can handle-
and you are stronger than you think.

I am now taking a diminishing dose of steroids for my Rheumatoid Arthritis pain and it works. I believe the chemotherapy drug is spelled “Methotrexate” that is used to treat a lot of things from cancer to arthritis will be used next. I just relish in being pain free.
So I am not participating in Sky Watch Friday just because I might not be able to make it around to all.
I enjoyed seeing your blog post for Sky Watch Friday and I thought your photography was excellent. I like the soldier like plants topped by the sky. Neat shot.
I don’t know if you like to read or not but if you do this place is amazing.
I just got my first shipment of used books from Strand’s bookstore in New York City, day before yesterday and they are in excellent condition.
They have 18 miles of used books. Think about that—18 miles. I had to start out by just choosing a category, like photography, and go from there.
I don’t know how in the world they can keep track of so many books.
Look up Strand bookstore or copy and paste the URL here: http://www.strandbooks.com/app/www/p/home/

Pretty one for SWF! Which reminds me the quote… “we all live under the same sky, but we don’t all have the same horizon”…. Mine’s up too hope you can drop by. Happy Weekend!

This is a beautifully composed photograph and a lovely contribution to Sky Watch. I very much enjoyed the quote from Lisa Wrobel, also.

Love that picture—makes me feel like a little critter in the grass=–also loved the poem that went with it. I needed to read that today. Thanks for posting.
