All that we see or seem
is but a dream within a dream.

As for the quote, I overheard Sarah and her friends discussing the writings of Edgar Allan Poe on our drive back home from last week's University of Illinois, Chemistry Science Holiday Magic Show. I've said it before and I'll say it again - these are not what you might think of typical teenagers. ☺ Anyway, it stirred my own interest in his writings again and in the mystery surrounding Poe and I love this quote. It reminds me of something similar my Mom has said to me all of her life - that life is truly like a dream. It's only here for a little while and all things that have happened seem to be almost dreamlike. No time of the year better than Christmas and the end of the year, does this seem ever more apparent.
... by the way - this is post #11 from the past 3 days in case you missed any. ☺

Dreamy indeed dear friend!
You are on a roll! :o)
Definitely not typical teenagers. :o)
Beautiful pics.
I really believe in that quote. Your pictures are very nice as usual. Have a very Merry Christmas.
I really enjoy his writing and that quote is a wonderful one. The pictures are beautiful too.
Gorgeous images, beautiful skies! Whenever my 16 year old is with his friends, they become silent when an adult is around so I never know what they are thinking or talking about or doing. Thankfully Yusef has stepped up his game this school year and had his best report ever last month. Of course, he can still do better, but I'm happy that he is at least putting forth the effort. Happy Thursday to you! Tammy
