If the world were merely seductive that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But, I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.
E.B. White

an interesting quote. to take action or kick back.
ReplyDeleteNice one!
ReplyDeleteHave a great new week :)
I love that quote. Hope to see daffodils here too--but it'll be another month or so.
ReplyDeleteIt sure would make it hard for me.
ReplyDeleteGood Music! We truly have so much to offer in this world...but, it is ok to sit back a let the world kiss us sometimes!
ReplyDeletehugs
Now, that is an interesting quote to chew on for a while . . .
ReplyDeleteDaffodils there already?
I enjoy teaching everyday ... so dare I say, I do both everyday, improve the world and enjoy the world !
ReplyDeleteexcellent quote!
ReplyDeleteWow I can't believe you have flowers already.
ReplyDeleteTHE BOSS expects to see a similar view out the back window soon......if we don't get the freak cold snap everyone is expecting to roll in around Easter.
ReplyDeleteI actually think you can improve the world by enjoying it instead of finding things to complain about! :-)
ReplyDeleteBring on Spring! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
I like the quote and the promise of spring with the daffodils. Mine are just coming up through the ground.
ReplyDeleteI'ts the balance that counts. My spouse takes care of the first one. In retirement, I lean todards the later... :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow. Blooming already?!?
ReplyDeleteI like the picture, but my only doubt in the morning is how much longer I can stay in bed without being late to work!
ReplyDeleteSo true!
ReplyDeletePretty! We're having warm weather, aren't we?! Regarding White's quote, what prevents one from doing both?
ReplyDeleteLovely hopeful photo- The trick I guess is to enjoy doing things that improve the world!: Vegetariansim, looking after the environment etc.
ReplyDeleteLove the quote and the budding daffodil - and I, too, am torn . . .
ReplyDeleteSo pretty... Spring is coming early this year, odd warm weather! Thank you for sharing on 'Weekly Top Shot.' I hope you'll come share again next week...
ReplyDeleteGreat quote.
ReplyDeleteLove your blooms....mine are in full bloom....sure enjoying them!
No kidding!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's why I have such a difficult time getting things done! xo
ReplyDeleteLOL - how true that quote is !
ReplyDeleteAnd how wonderful that you have daffodils ... already.
Daffodils are appearing early this mild winter! I love the White quote. I think I'd learn more towards enjoyment of the day.:)
