Thanks for the kind comments about the picture. They are a difficulty for me. My sisters are fairly photogenic. One in particular, I have never seen a bad photo of her. I have a terrible time. I never look happy in pictures because I'm not. I hate having my picture taken except by little c who lights up my life and I forget, just a little, how much I hate being photographed and be just a bit happy for half a second while she snaps it, which is why I let you all see the above photo.
I also thought I would include the rest of the quote from above. Van Gogh is someone who was very wise when he wasn't being nuts, but I think that has to do with lead poisoning complicated by depression and heat stroke. That's my own personal theory anyway. At heart, he was very wise and he said some of the most lovely things. This is one of my faves.
Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and what is done in love is done well. Vincent Van Gogh

I absolutely do not like to be photographed, yet I realized a while back that it isn't fair for those around me to not have photos of me (not that they are treasures) In years to come, someone, somewhere may want to see what I looked like at various stages of my life. It is now an event I tolerate and, like you, put on a happy face!
Good point Shauna :)
