A few days ago I was writitng about denial, which , in eyes, is no virtue at all. I see this opinion confirmed by your quotes. Thanks very much. Tomorrow I'm heading - vaguely - in your direction.

I love the Bolles quote!  And I've always hated the admonition, "be realistic."  Fine sentiments this morning.  Mal

the road below, passes the spring blossoms - full of the dreams of summer,

full of blossoms, of heat and sun, of photosynthesis, of Nature's glories and courage.
