Farm Life

'If something comes to life in others because of you,
then you have made an approach to immortality.'

-Norman Cousins (1912-1990)



'My heart leaps up when I behold a rainbow in the sky.'
-William Wordsworth (1770-1850)







'God gives every bird its food, but He does not throw it into its nest.'
J.G. Holland

‘Be as a bird perched on a frail branch that she feels bending beneath her, still she sings away all the time, knowing she has wings.’

– Victor Hugo

'Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.'
Langston Hughes

‘The living self has one purpose only: to come into its own fullness of being, as a tree comes into full blossom, or a bird into spring beauty, or a tiger into lustre.’

- D H Lawrence

Managed to get a glimpse of this goanna as it scurried across the paddock

It is hard to believe how quickly these creatures move for their size



This beautiful Tawny Frogmouth Owl recently appeared on the railing of the Al Fresco area as the barbeque was cooking



'The wailing owl screams solitary to the mournful moon.'
-David Mallet

Determined to try to keep things 'light' this week, I have simply taken some pictures from the 'Farm' file adding quotes that I like.

Tomorrow I have another CT Scan to determine if there is any spread to the pelvis and the abdomen followed by an appointment with my oncologist Thursday to get the results.

It is my intention to ask very direct questions with the expectation of complete honesty. It is important for me to know exactly what I am facing.
