“Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” is a song written by Nickolas Ashford & Valerie Simpson in 1966 for the Tamla label, a division of Motown. The composition was first successful as a 1967 hit single recorded by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, and became a hit again in 1970 when recorded by former Supremes frontwoman Diana Ross. The song became Ross’s first solo number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
I have a perfect circle of friends
and they suit me to a tee
not too many, not too few
just all there needs to be
.
I know I can depend on them
they always have my back
which, sadly, is a quality
a lot of people lack
.
They aren’t crude and they aren’t vulgar
nor hurtful, crass or mean
they are friendly, kind and genuine
and that’s how they’ve always been
.
I’ve known some of them forever
at least, it feels that way
and some relationships are quite new
but, grow stronger every day
.
There are those who could take lessons
from these friends I hold most dear
and learn what true friendship’s all about
for they make it pretty clear

The Fall
.
The earth becomes a canvas,
as the leaves fall all around,
of brightly painted pictures
laying on the ground
.
The Autumn air is filled with scents
as the winds begin to play
The days grow short, the nights grow long
As the Summer fades away
.
Before the Winter snow flies
Before holidays come to call
Let’s take some time to enjoy it
and go out and greet the Fall…
.

Indian Pipe
This fascinating plant (Monotropa uniflora) is definitely one of nature’s weird wonders. Because it has no chlorophyll and doesn’t depend on photosynthesis, this ghostly white plant is able to grow in the darkest of forests. Many people refer to this strange plant as Indian pipe fungus, but it is not a fungus at all – it just looks like one. It is actually a flowering plant, and believe it or not, it is a member of the blueberry family.

…for you to have in your head for the rest of the day.😁
No need to thank me!
Chipped teapot…don’t landfill it…donate to a bird …
It even has its own drainage system…
Enjoy your day!
September 11, 2001…
So very much more than the obvious happened that day…
That day…a people, separated by politics, religion, color and creed, became one…
That day…voices, once silent, rose above the din of jet engines, crumbling buildings and screams, and said, ‘We shall not stand for this!’…
That day…Faith, Hope, Honor, Love, Courage and Unity rose from the ashes…
That day…grace took grief by the hand…
A tribute to those who lost their lives, and to those who gave their lives trying to save them…
Just Another Ordinary Day
It was just an ordinary day
In the greatest city in the world
There were those who were at work
Or dropping kids off at their schools
The sun was shining brightly
The sky, a brilliant blue
And they were doing all the normal things
That people normally do
Amid the hustle and the bustle
New Yorkers carried on
For little they did know
3000 lives would soon be gone
I won’t rehash the madness
Of that horrifying day
For it’s etched within our memories
Where it will forever stay
I will say, though, that it changed us
And we never more shall be
Unguarded and unwary
No more complacency
Together we will conquer
United we will stand
bin Laden could not break us
In solidarity we will band
And, always, we will remember
The evil that touched this land
On that day filled with such sadness
The day that grace took grief by the hand…

Please, pray for peace.
I was going to post ‘Where Were You [when the world stopped turning]’, but some scoundrel, who shall remain nameless, beat me to it. So I’ll post the next best thing…
Today we remember those lives lost due to the 9/11 Terrorist attacks. We continue to remember and thank those who so selflessly put their lives on the line for America and it’s people. We continue to pray for this great nation.
These are chilling last messages that innocent people left for their families at home.
“I don’t know what to say. There’s three guys, they’ve hijacked the plane, we’re turned around and I heard that there’s planes that have been flown into the World Trade Centre.”
“There’s lot of smoke and I just wanted you to know that I love you always.”
“I just want to let you know I love you and I’m stuck in this building in New York.”
Betty Ong was a flight attendant on the first plane to be flown into the Twin Towers. In her final moments, she managed to call the authorities, providing vital information about what had happened – potentially saving countless lives by helping officials identify the attackers, and ground dozens more flights.
