Good morning!
Today is Tuesday.
Not all animals are born with the agility of yesterday’s sable. Some require a bit of practice.
“The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.”
― T.H. White, The Once and Future King
Onwards,
Clara
What a fabulous doubleheader this morning‘s post is - thank you & thank you 💗💗💗
What a fantastic quote. Just what I need as I "lie awake listening to the disorder of my veins" every night. The baby flamingo reminds me of myself trying to dry my feet after a shower and the effort to not fall headfirst into the toilet. (Yes, I use grab bars.)
