“I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.
I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, who has sight so keen and strong
That it can follow the flight of song?
Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroken;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.”
Longfellow
Sandbaai, East Coast, Western Cape, South Africa
“I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.” Dalai Lama

This morning we decided to go out for breakfast. When we left home we still did not know were we are going. When we got to the stop we decided to turn left and head for Kleinmond. I took some nice photo’s there and during the next few weeks I’ll post some photo’s.
This little dog caught my eye and what I thought my hubby and friend said. “Your photo of the day” The dog looked away and when I push the shutter button he looked at me so that I can take a proper photo. It was like he was playing model for a few minutes.
Are this better must I turn my head a little more?....This is how a restaurant dog wait's for his food...
