    I'm not stupid.

    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Yes, in more ways than one?

    For the first time ever I saw a blue dragonfly in my garden!  I believe they live near water and as we've never had a pond in our gardens- because of our young children and, later, grandchildren- we've never had one. 

    I felt so emotional, really odd!  Almost embarrassed to admit it.

    But, it was a thing of beauty.

    Embarrassed?  Why?

    Remember Keats's, "A thing of beauty is a joy for ever."
    Beauty is such a special joy; it should move us, I think. <3

    I certainly agree with Danae and Keats.  

    Here is someone else moved by God's creation.  (Hopkins is one of my most loved poets.  I always go to him when I need to understand and/or long to be comforted.)

    I love his poetry too; especially his Terrible Sonnets:"O the mind, mind has mountains..."
    He seemed to have a very low opinion of himself but I think he was/is "Immortal Diamond".
