Go...Thank you Anne.<br />Autumnfall is a fantastic time.<br />Good enough to eat - the weather here at the moment is delicious.<br />I hope it is with you in Washington and/or Potsdamm.poppshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08976320013870023366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705434510664520110.post-62082617478004214562011-10-14T01:04:16.957+02:002011-10-14T01:04:16.957+02:00So sorry for your loss.
Vanitas, in vain, vanity...So sorry for your loss. <br /><br />Vanitas, in vain, vanity - our whole early Christian philosophy is come a'knockin. I saw beautiful Dutch and Italian paintings at the Mellon Gallery in Washington last week, with the tulips (and the dates and the berries) perilously over-ripe. Vanitas. That does not, however, make them meaningless. On the contrary! I have a big ol' bouquet sitting on the table right here, reminding me how beatiful the fruits of the Earth are, especially in the fall.<br /><br />To judge from the picture of the two of you, you guys did not tread softly.Anne Hodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225113474074315864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1705434510664520110.post-56497119000067985212011-10-13T20:17:31.931+02:002011-10-13T20:17:31.931+02:00Hello anony.

Today you are heavy into philosophy. M...Hey Popps,<br /><br />Today you are heavy into philosophy. Meaning (any kind of meaning) is only a bit of spin that we put on our chaotic world. All will still be spinning after we go and waiting patiently for the next guy. <br /><br />Thanks for visiting my blog. Hopefully you didn't get sea sick reading it ;-)Greg Rudzinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03594186004550253808noreply@blogger.com
