To Be or Not To Be

A little kingdom I possess,
Where thoughts and feelings dwell;
And very hard the task I find
Of governing it well.
~ Louisa May Alcott

...that more or less describes my situation!

~A Wise Man Said~

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Scotland
 
Vast mountains, gorgeous greens,
Winding roads, lustrous streams,
Sun at our back, lake beckoning ahead
Driving at our own speed
Charmed by 'Inverness'
 
Nature glorious abounds in these parts
Bounties and treasures cannot invoke its arts
Blessed must I be to revel in these joys
Or maybe something good done in a past life
 
The dark, deep, and cold waters of Loch Ness
May well hide monsters and dragons in its depths
Stuff of legend or nature's many mysteries
Who can tell where belief meets make-believe
 
As we drive onward leaving these mighty highlands behind
Travellers tied by blood and now tied to these shrines
Of memories and moments spent in each other's warm hold
May our journey into the future lead us here again as of old...
