Description
A simple reflection of life transition ....
The Struggle
Poet: Edgar A Guest
Life is a struggle for peace,
A longing for rest,
A hope for the battles to cease,
A dream for the best;
And he is not living who stays
Contented with things,
Unconcerned with the work of the days
And all that it brings.
He is dead who sees nothing to change,
No wrong to make right;
Who travels no new way or strange
In search of the light;
Who never sets out for a goal
That he sees from afar
But contents his indifferent soul
With things as they are.
Life isn't rest --- it is toil;
It is building a dream;
It is tilling a parcel of soil
Or bridging a stream;
It's pursuing the light of a star
That but dimly we see,
And in wresting from things as they are
The joy that should be.

Thank you very much... trying to keep in touch with the Group.
Social media seems overwhelming at times, and personal expression has been challenged at nearly every level. Having been here a while, as you, I look forward to this more open venue of expression.

These are some wonderful spring-y photos, sir! Yeah, it's time to get my REAL camera (Canon EOS 6D) out, and shoot some spring stuff as well.
These are lovely!

Great photos. It is Spring-like year round here. Always something blooming. That is why I like it so much.
