Going the Way of the Dodo?

We owe it to our children and our grandchildren

to be good stewards of the land,

and leave behind a legacy

of protecting endangered species,

and the places they call home.

The most effective way to save endangered species is

to protect the places they need to live.

Every one of these birds

needs the protection of the Endangered Species Act.

In part, it's about protecting habitat,

because every bird and every animal of any kind

needs a home.

Nature is the mother

and the habitat of man,

even if sometimes a stepmother

and an unfriendly home.

Dead as a Dodo!

Praises for our past triumphs are

as feathers to a dead bird !

We think caged birds sing,

when indeed they cry !

No Sense of Humor?

Whenever you have Truth

it must be given with Love,

or the message and the messenger will be rejected.

Mahatma Gandhi

Happiness is when

what you think,

what you say,

and what you do

are in Harmony.

Mahatma Gandhi

 

the Roots of Violence:

wealth without work,

pleasure without conscience,

knowledge without character,

commerce without morality,

science without humanity,

worship without sacrifice,

politics without principles.

Mahatma Gandhi

 

If I had no sense of humor,

I would long ago have committed suicide!

Mahatma Gandhi

Have Wings ? Will Fly !

When once you've tasted flight,

you'll forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward,

for there you've been,

and there you'll always long to return !

Aviation is proof that given, the will,

we have the capacity to achieve the impossible !
Edward Vernon Rickenbacker

 

The mastery of the turn is the story of

how aviation became practical

as a means of transportation.

It is the story of how the world became small !
William Langewiesche

 

Nice Doggies! 8P

To err is human,

to Forgive, canine.

Dogs are the most amazing creatures;

they give Unconditional Love.

They are the role model for being alive.

My goal in life is to be as good of a person

my dog already thinks I am.

The greatest love is

a Mother's;

then a Dog's;

then a Sweetheart's.

We are One!

I would look at a dog

and when our eyes met,

I realized that the dog and all creatures

are my family.

They're like you and me.
Ziggy Marley

Walk the Talk

A dog is not considered a good dog

because he is a good barker.

A man is not considered a good man

because he is a good talker.

Dogs of Peace! Dogs for Peace!

 "Dogs are our link to paradise.

They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent.

To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon

is to be back in Eden,

where doing nothing was not boring

- it was peace."

Milan Kundera

Silence of the Swans

In order to see the birds

it is necessary to become
part of the silence.

The bird of paradise alights only
upon the hand that does not grasp.

Faith is the bird that feels the light
when the dawn is still dark

Use what talents you possess;
the woods would be very silent
if no birds sang there
except those that sang best.
