Then Jesus told them :” You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going.
John 12 : 35 NIV
This is my third post that included viburnum farreri twigs. The post for 2022 saw the flowers badly burnt by frost, while in 2021, they were pink and plentiful. This year, in late November 2023, their flowers travel the twigs. Here is a thought
I want to cultivate the seed that was placed in me until the last twig has grown.
Katherine Kollwitz (1867-1945 A German artist who worked with painting, printmaking, and sculpture. If you press on her name, you will see some of her work and understand a little of who this artist was.)



A twig placed in a vase with some stalks of silk tassels not yet settled into position reminded me of pointing.

Comedians are sociologists. We’re pointing out stuff that the general public doesn’t even stop to think about, looking at life in slow – motion and questioning everything we see.
Steven Wright ( American stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and film producer.)
Here are a few of his jokes:
I went to a restaurant that serves ‘breakfast at any time’ . So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissamce.
If you are travelling in a spaceship that is going at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, does anything happen?
If at first you don’t succeed, then skydiving isn’t for you.
The road Sandy’s mind travelled.It’s easy to give up . It’s even easier to start pointing fingers.

A softer look with the gentle yet more evident shadows behind.
The sweet smell of the small trumpet shaped flowers is pronounced when standing close. It becomes an escape from the grey outside.
I hope time is good to you.

The tassels and twigs go nicely together, but that vase, I just love that vase, Sandy! You mention Steven Wright’s quotes here and there in posts like today. My husband and I went to see him perform, gosh maybe 25 years ago. Whew, that was a long time ago!
How quickly time passes! I am sure Steven Wright gave you a good evening. Blue is a rich colour to use with plant material a pleasant contrast. Glad you liked it.🙂
