Description
The stages of our lives are interesting and yet sometimes they bring an uncertainty that can unsettle our foundations. No one ever wrote a book about getting old and how we would feel. Feelings are where it's at. We would almost all agree that we don't feel that much different than we felt ten years ago. What we would all agree upon is that we have become wiser with the passing of our years. Age is a matter of mind and not the body. If we think young... keep our minds active... the body is sure to follow. So the next time that you hear someone say "I feel like I'm sixty" take a moment to question that thought. What is a sixty year old supposed to feel like? Let the passages of your life bring you peace and joy. Welcome them with open arms. Embrace them and know for yourself that you are magnificent... you are wonderful... you are all that you should be and yet you are not what you have yet to become. Life is an amazing journey. We can either go along by digging in our heels and being disgruntled or we can move through our journey with the knowledge that we are infinite... that we are a mysterious potentiality just waiting to happen. The choice is ours... it has always been ours. How divine. How simply divine.
Our thought for the day is: 'You may occasionally give out - but never give up.' Quote by Mary Crowley
May you always know joy throughout your life and may the joy you know bring you happiness.

This is a single flame created in Apophysis 3D Hack 2.08. The seed script for this flame was the Moonstruck script by Bunny Clarke. There were some tweaks by me. Post work was done in PSP. You can visit Bunny’s gallery here:

That of wisdom even today in your comment Gayle! In France they say that there is the age old of the arteries and it is very true! When our head is not at best its form, we feel getting old, but if a joy arrives in our home then the sun sparkles brillianty. When some months ago, an artist admitted the value of my job by making one favourite, I often thanked, by writing him that the sun shone on my heart... Today I gtlisse sixty towards my tenth year, but I want that my body has of it twenty less, by losing kilogrammes, by living my art from day to day him developing little by little, and by knowing that we cannot be improved, that our art can mature, but will never be perfection! To remain alert of mind, it is necessary to create competitions, 'tournaments ', bets... Thanks for your wisdom, young talented full artist!!! Claude

hehe...don't know about the wiser bit Gayle! I still have to use the internet to find out how to spell words like Czechoslovakia for my 12 year old Grandson...If I was wise I would have told him to look it up himself, but to save face......Beautiful image and lovely very wise words from you again:-)

If we have paid attention, then wisdom is gained. If we have not let realities depress us, we have gained freedom to hope. If our minds can explore, and our imaginations travel, we continue to have vitality. If our hearts have grown in love, we are ageless. That is a beautiful image that for me represents a daily rebirth of all that I have written above. Your words are full of truth.
