Self-Stalking - Inspiration in The Morning 17

(~*~)
Hello,
Welcome to a new month!

Oct.5/11 Inspiration in the Morning ... 333
"For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together.
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad."~Edwin Teale
My Add:
For those of us creatives that LOVE Halloween, it's also time for us to "scatter" ourselves with our own kind of "harvests". HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)

Oct.6/11 Inspiration in the Mornings... 334
"I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house. So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air."~Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804 - 1864)
My Add:
It's good to do this as often as we can. It helps "clear our heads", gives us some much needed fresh air, and rejuvenates our souls. (^^^)
+++
Oct.7/11 Inspiration in the Mornings... 335
"There is a harmony
In autumn, and a lustre in its sky,
Which through the summer is not heard or seen,
As if it could not be, as if it had not been!"~Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 - 1822)
My Add:
Autumn is a time of many possibly "hidden" inspirations. It's up to us to discover them.
WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)
+++
Oct.10/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 336
"He who rejects change is the architect of decay. The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery."~Harold Wilson (1916 - 1995), Speech to the Consultive Assembly of the Council of Europe, Strasbourg, France, January 23, 1967
My Add:
This may be the case in many cemeteries today, but they are kept up & "modernized" by many in many ways. Whether it be fresh flowers, new styled tombstones, or landscape design. Art is EVERYWHERE in the cemeteries, it just takes an objective view point to see it. Spreading the LOVE today - for our dead! XO+XO+XO+ (*@^@*)
+++
Oct.11/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 337
"Perpetual worry will get you to one place ahead of time - the cemetery."~Author Unknown
My Add:
Wednesdays can be tough, and we need to get over the week's "hump". Worry leads to stress we don't need, and we can't change everything to be perfect. If we try our best at what we need/ can do, that's all that matters. HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
+++
Oct.12/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 338
"Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery."~Malcolm X (1925 - 1965), Malcolm X Speaks, 1965
My Add:
Being peaceful, courteous, obeying the law, & respecting everyone; is how we want to "travel" in Life, and while journeying through the lands of the dead. After all, they say we only live once. (^^^)
+++
Oct.13/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 339
"Every man should keep a fair-sized cemetery in which to bury the faults of his friends."~Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887)
My Add:
Our friends (like us) are not perfect, and we will find faults. Forgiving them is easier than many think, and a cemetery would be useful for burial of faults from both them & us. Just gotta be careful of expansions, if we want to keep them "in our own back yard".
+++
Oct.14/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 340
"The main things which seem to me important on their own account, and not merely as means to other things, are knowledge, art, instinctive happiness, and relations of friendship or affection."~Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
My Add:
Something to remember when times are "trying" in relations of any kind. (^^^)
+++
Oct.17/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 341
"True happiness is of a retired nature, and an enemy to pomp and noise; it arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of one's self, and in the next from the friendship and conversation of a few select companions."~Joseph Addison (1672 - 1719), The Spectator, March 17, 1911
My Add:
Yes, true happiness is much closer than we may realize. We just need to keep an open heart & mind to see the opportunities. Spreading the LOVE IN FRIENDSHIP!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Oct.18/11 Inspiration in the Mornings... 342
"Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation."~George Washington (1732 - 1799)
My Add:
For nothing worth keeping is easy, and looking before we leap into any intimate relations is a MUST. Otherwise we are "going in blind", and leaving the door of opportunity open for those who would "walk all over us". (^^^)
+++
Oct.19/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 343
"Never refuse any advance of friendship, for if nine out of ten bring you nothing, one alone may repay you."~Madame de Tencin
My Add:
When there is much negativity out there, REAL friends are always welcome. If it turns out to only be the one that stays by our side "through thick & thin", then that's all we need. CHEERS TO REAL FRIENDS!!! (^^^)
+++
Oct.20/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 344
"To the soul, there is hardly anything more healing than friendship."~Thomas Moore (1779 - 1852)
My Add:
The greatest thing about REAL friends: They tell you truths (whether you want to hear them or not), help you through "tough times", appreciate you for who you are, they are "there for you" when you need it most, and of all the people in Life you come across... some actually "last a Lifetime"! Here's to real friends... CHEERS! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! You know who you are... (*@^@*)

"Fashion can be bought. Style one must possess."~Edna Woolman Chase
My Add:
There's an old saying that fits this... let's see if I remember it correctly. Only those brave enough to express themselves through fashion, are the ones that possess true style. (^^^)
+++
Oct.25/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 346
"Fashion is general. Style is individual."~Edna Woolman Chase
My Add:
Fashion is made "for the people, by the people". Style is as individual as each of us, and only we can say what we like. After all, we are the ones that are wearing it... we should like it. If not, we can always make it "our own" by alterations. Sharing the LOVE of creativity!!! (^^^)
+++
Oct.26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 347
"Fashion is something that goes in one year and out the other."~Unknown
My Add:
Fashions may change from year to year, but they also repeat each other. This gives us creatives the chances to "improve" on older fashions, and gives us some predictability of when which fashions may be "in" or "out". Then again, we can always use the old fashions as inspirations for something new. GOTTA LOVE FASHION!!! HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Oct.27/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 348
"Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly."~Franz Kafka (1883 - 1924)
My Add:
Doing this through fashion, is called "expressing ourselves" to some and "personal style" to others. Either way it's a sense of FREEDOM! Something we ALL could use more of... makes me "thirsty" for more!
HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY (*@^@*)
+++
Oct.28/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 349
"Fashion is for people who don't know who they are."~Quentin Crisp
My Add:
It may be like this for some, but many of us that like fashion like to "play" with their clothes. For example: I know who I am, and it has nothing to do with fashion. Fashion is merely a part of my life, for my own entertainment purposes. I like having fun with clothes, to see what "funky" outfits I can come up with.
WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)

"Nothing on Earth so beautiful as the final haul on Halloween night."~Steve Almond
My Add:
I disagree with this quote unless CASH was the "haul", because unfortunately cash is what's ALWAYS needed. And OF COURSE, our CHILDREN are more beautiful. It's funny how this is the ONLY Halloween quote I found...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!! (*@^@*)

Catch the start of this, catch the last one, or continue with more!
