Please NOTE: I'm supposedly "breaking" awhile, and will be in and out to manage my page; everything is fine! :-) ♥

Anything Jane Austen-ish, romantic,
disastrous, or mysterious.
I'll make the popcorn.
The second feature can be a comedy. : -)

♪♫ Music ♫♪ moves me deeply...I LOVE it! I keep up with many contemporary musical genres and appreciate classical pieces, too.
|
Favorite categories of books: "armchair travelers", classics (and poetry), fine art books, small doses of theology, lots of British mysteries, and some modern novels...that's just the beginning.

Aquamarine, the color of perfect seas, is at the top of my list, as it should be, for someone with "sea" in her name. :-)

DESIDERADA
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons;
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater
and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble,
it's a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit
to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
however you conceive him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

"No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are throughout persuaded of each other's worth."

Welcome to my page...I'm a long married femme who is re-discovering aspects of herself. As a learner, I'm still full of curiosity; mainly, I MUSE a lot. And, like Elizabeth Bennet in Pride & Prejudice, "I dearly love to laugh."
|
People dwelling in faraway places intrigue me...I'm crazy about foreign accents. I long to trek down cobblestone streets in historic villages I've never seen. Fountains and gardens enchant me, and I'm *mad* for the sea, often wishing I could stroll along a quiet shoreline with all my senses tuned in. Perhaps my soul was designed for gentler times...

Does raising a mischievous Yorkie named Mr. Darcy count as a hobby? ;-) Otherwise, I spend spare time using the computer in one form or fashion (and I do remember fondly my previous activities).
