I love this picture. I like how you capture a sense of order in the midst of the chaos of all the birds flapping around. And what a bad place to park a bike.

Beautiful words. I'm going to copy this and place it prominently to refer to. Particularly the Courage one, but they're ALL beautifully crafted and expressed. Thankyou. May you receive an abundance of the good will you send out.

For once, a photograph came out just the way I wanted it to.

And the wishes are my wishes for every one of you. All the best for the New Year.
