"When a woman changes her life for the better, her entire family (whether or not she has children) generally benefits. She sets the tone. The well-being of the family and of society itself depends upon women becoming and remaining healthy. So we owe it to ourselves to put ourselves first and take the time we need to heal."

It is a bit gray, cool and gloomy today and yesterday. I just hope it warms up on Sunday for my granddaughter's birthday party: It is outside at a park!
That comment above was me. I didn't mean to hit anonymous.
These are not the skies that you usually show us. They have a lot more moodiness to them, but they are still beautiful!
Water is the new oil, I think. Beautiful skies - no matter what color...:) Soon there will be leaves. I hope...
It is raining and grey and the temperature is going the wrong way here in NY. Yuck!
Your photographs are lovely and my thoughts were the same today as your first Haiku as we recieved record rain today. Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend.

Well, behind every cloud is a silver lining - or so I've heard. Hope this moisture helps your area to bloom!
gray skies can be so beautiful, these are!
You welcome the rain to your dry ground and ours is over saturated. The world around us is crazy isn't it. I'm glad you're sharing this view with us.
Thanks for playing.

Very cool photos, those buds are surely helped by the rain. Great haiku to go with them.

We have bright sunshine here today :)
You'll have to do that rain dance! heheheh
I'll pray for you all to get some rain out there!
Great photos! Hope you have a wonderful week end!
Good shot, storyteller and I love the quote by Maya Angelou! :)
It seems you have the same sky as I do ! grey ... but the branches against it look beautiful.
I wish I could send some of our rain your way. I hope it comes and drenches your beautiful landscape. God bless, Storyteller.
I like how the branches are silhouetted against the gray sky.
Enjoyed your Haiku as always.
I hope those grey skies brought the desired rain with them.
The Balboa Island pictures are delightful! They remind me of the many favorite spots I have in California; I do hope we get to vacation there this year. :)
