Beautiful, Ewa! Wise words to remember.
Well, it was sunny today so I was able to follow up this excellent advice.;-) It's pretty cold here (minus 7 to minus 15) how's it with you?
A very Blissful 2009 to you and yours, Ewa!
I will do so when the sun returns here.
Old Mr. Franklin was a very wise man. Thank you for sharing that quote.
Beautiful photo Ewa!
I love that quote, especially in times like these. Thanks, Ewa.
Hejsan Ewa och god fortsättning!
Isn't just lovely that the sun is getting stronger for each day soon...we have spring.

Ewa, An excellent quote! A good all around philosophy, too. gail
Ewa, this is a nice reminder to be positive even when things seem dark...the sun will be out before we know it:) Jan
We are having a big ice storm, so this photo and those wise words are just what I need right now - thanks!
that's a very inspiring photo... if i'm depressed, this view would surely lift my spirits...
and the quote is a great "food for though"... i'll keep this in mind...
Stunning and inspiring photo! Wonderful quote.
