I'm rather at a loss for much to say about this little cherry painting which I really like. Wish I had some chocolate to dip them in when the painting was finished.

Are any of you interested in experiencing what some refer to as 'mind over matter'? If so, close your eyes, take in a deep breath, and imagine you are biting into one of these very tart red cherries....Did you salivate a bit?  That's mind over matter....

Today's Quotation:  “I think that there are those who write of life being a skip on the sidewalk, a chocolate bar, a bowl of cherries... the problem with that is it ends up disappointing people. Because life is more like being on the tube in London; you never really know what could happen! But then there are those people who bring a box of chocolates to eat on the tube...so life, it isn't a skip on the sidewalk, but it is a matter of strength: "Can I bring my bowl of cherries to feast on while I stand here in the gutter?" that's the essence of life. Can you still put on your rose-colored glasses while your eyes are filled with tears, and see everything in rosy colors? That's the strength that fuels a true life. Can you think to bring your little box of chocolates with you while you sit on the tube running under the streets of London? Because you should. Because even if you don't know anybody, and you don't know what's gonna happen next, you should have your box of chocolates with you. You should eat your bowl of cherries. And that is what life is.”
