Colors are here still

 I may have gone overboard with the choices of flowers in this week's bouquet.













I have great gratitude for the plenty which is being shared among peoples and relations this week.


L.C.Leyendecker 

Today's quote:

In its original literal sense, "moral relativism" is simply moral complexity. That is, anyone who agrees that stealing a loaf of bread to feed one's children is not the moral equivalent of, say, shoplifting a dress for the fun of it, is a relativist of sorts. But in recent years, conservatives bent on reinstating an essentially religious vocabulary of absolute good and evil as the only legitimate framework for discussing social values have redefined "relative" as "arbitrary". -Ellen Jane Willis, writer (1941-2006)

    1. Thanks. Happy Tuesday Eileen! That's a good use of a tea pot that is never used for tea I'd say!

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
