This is my weekly Friday feature. I send my daughter, who is finishing up her third year of law school in Seattle, WA, a photograph I took and she picks a quote to go with it. So the image is something I photographed that touched me and the words are something she read that touched her. Hopefully, both pieces will be a bit more inspiring as a result...
"We live in a world which is full of misery and ignorance, and the plain duty of of each and all of us is to try and make the little corner he can influence somewhat less miserable and somewhat less ignorant than it was before he entered it." -Thomas Henry Huxley
Thanks to French Basketeer for reminding me to give you the photo info - took this one about 10 years ago in Krakow, Poland.

Such a gorgeous photo... love the architecture. Your daughter always finds the best quotes. I hope your weekend is wonderful, Jeanette! xoxo
Another great photo and matching quote!
Wonderful weekend!
ah....well the corners in the image are as beautiful as the verse...we do have to create our own beauty in our own corners with the gifts God has given us. You mentioned your looking for direction...seems you have a lot going for you...your art work alone is stunning...and if thats your home behind it WOW! I see a creatively gifted woman.
p.s. we are looking into getting a juicer & if you tell me it makes fruit & veg equally well...well I will look into it!
a perfect match....again :-)
Happy Weekend all.
Nice job. I really like that photo but I don't think I know where it was taken.
Have a great weekend all!
Happy weekend everyone!!
I love this each week, Jeanette; I always want to know though, where was the photo taken??
Beautiful picture, Jeanette! I love this series of yours, you and your daughter are really sweet!

What a wonderful photo and quote.
I have always wanted to go to Poland and looks up some family homes but that trip has been put on hold for awhile.
I too like when you tell us where the photo was taken.

Beautiful image. Lovely quotation. Enjoy your weekend. :)
I love this!!! Your photo is amazing and such a great quote. Happy weekend to you. xoxo
First, being a first-year law student, I am a bit jealous - and full of admiration - at your daughter, for being almost done.
Second, that photograph is gorgeous! As is the verse :)
As I've said many
times before, I just
love this Friday tradition
that you have created
with your daughter.
Both the photo AND
the quote are lovely
and intriguing. You
are certainly NOT a
fish trying to climb
a tree : ) I will be thinking
of that quote ~ and your
inspiring pictures ~ as
I take my photo class,
this month!
