sunset_years Photo Gallery by Norma Struthers at pbase.com

Almost all of these represent people I know or have known or studies of friends
which by some miracle turned into their own characters in art.
Some of them have left this world. Such is one fact of the Sunset years.

"Little by little God takes away human beauty:
Little by little the sapling withers.
"Go, recite. "To whom we give a length of days,
we also cause them to decline.
Seek the Spirit;
Do not set your heart on bones."

~ Rumi, Massnavi II;714-715

"Best Last Kiss" & "You're as Pretty as the Day We Met" gotta be my favs. They are so sweet and really tug at my heartstrings. Yep, time flies when your having fun and even when you aren't. We just talked about this in our e-mails. ;o)

These are all very beautiful and reminds me that the clock is always ticking; it waits for no one, in fact the older we get the faster it seems to tick. Seeing all these pictures reminds me to enjoy life and not waste one precious minute.
