Hey, robins still singing

No, seriously, I wake up to hear them singing, say around six or seven, and take unexpected pleasure at that.

They even sung me to and from the commencement at Case.

It's like the prayer:

The birds they sang
at the break of day
Start again
I heard them say
Don't dwell on what
has passed away
or what is yet to be.

from here

Note that one of the last stanzas encapsulates much of my personal motivation.

Lovely post - have to thank you for giving Twitter legitimacy here in Cleveland (the PD noted that you twittered) - now my luddite friends don't think I am quite so crazy!

Have a wonderful day!

Interesting.
Need to read it a few more times.
The "from here" surprised, yet didn't surprise.


Really enjoy the bird and animal postings.

Nature is wonderful. If one has troubles you just need to step outside, to see that the world is still turning and the birds are still singing. So whatever your troubles, no matter really, as long as the world still turns, trees reach up to clouds in the sky and the birds are singing.
