  1. Die Zeit kommt
    Und die Zeit geht
    Sie beschenkt uns
    Und sie nimmt

    Carpe Diem
    Nutze den Tag
    Und genieße
    Den Augenblick

    Habt einen sonnig schönen Tag, ihr Lieben, 🧡
    mit wundervollen Momenten und Begegnungen! ☀️

  2. On a sunny note...

    So far... a 'fair and balanced' cartoon feed today, between florid #TrumpVirus #insanity and 'better angels' of #democracy - and #DogDays

  3. A quotation from Horace

    Of lingering and gain-seeking make an end;
    Think, while there’s time, how soon Death’s pyre may blaze;
    And some brief folly mix with prudent ways:
       At the fit hour ’tis sweet to unbend.
     
    [Verum pone moras et studium lucri
    nigrorumque memor, dum licet, ignium
    misce stultitiam consiliis brevem:
    dulce est desipere in loco.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Odes [Carmina], Book 4, # 12, l. 25ff (4.12.25-28) (13 BC) [tr. Marshall (1908)]
