Word Wide Wednesday Presents, Porvoo, Finland, Part Two
The old town of Porvoo
A home away from home
Flew there like a crow
Stated ,when in Rome…
Found the nearest cafe
Which was close to the bay
Enjoyed the sunny day
Until turn of eve
When it was time to leave

“Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up” A. A. Milne
A Quote a Week Tuesday #1
First quote of the series, is a rather funny one. For one thing, it is often true. But then again, like most quotes, it can inspire to think and as an extension, write 😉
“A quotation is a handy thing to have about, saving one the trouble of thinking for oneself, always a laborious business” A.A. Milne, If I May

“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation” Oscar Wilde
A Quote a Week Tuesday: New Tuesday Series
As inspired by the 3 day quote challenge, I am launching a new serial, “A Quote a Week Tuesday”.
Since I am so fond of quotes and use them in all my posts, I decided this could be a fun challenge for Tuesdays.
Any quote, own or borrowed will be posted each Tuesday accompanied by photos of the same theme.
If you want, you can ping back your own post to this site. This, however, is not a round robin type thing, rather just something on the side 😉
Let the quotations continue!
“Life itself is a quotation” Jorge Luis Borges

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated” Confucius
It’s only complicated if you are stupid
Today’s quote is something I ran across a team meeting at work a while back. The quote stuck to me and eventually I had to write a post about it too. It is very humorous as it is accurate and applies to so many aspects of life.
“It’s only complicated if you are stupid”

Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world
Photography is a hobby very near and dear to me. I have been shooting pics since I was ten, when I got my first pocket camera by Kodak. I used to make black and white photos in the school photo lab every week and was known as the school “pix snapper”, recording history whenever there was an event or another. Of course in those days, we used film for the cameras and working part time was the best option to get my film rolls. In today’s world, photography is more common of course and easy access to cameras even on mobile phones makes anyone a “photographer”.
After starting my blog this year and posting my photos on Instagram, Flickr and 500px I can totally relate to this quote, since even the English language can be difficult for some to understand, but a photograph seems to be a simple way to share one’s art.
“Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world” Bruno Barbey

The cat in the mirror
The sleek feline figure
Eyes blue as sapphire
Her spirit filled with fire
Herself does she admire
In honour of Caturday, for all cats everywhere

Cats, cats, cats
I see a lots of cats
Cats over there
And cats over here
Even more cats
They are everywhere
Oh, look at the pretty cat
In the window there
What window, where?
Over there, over here
Even more cats
They are everywhere

“Puns are the highest form of literature” Alfred Hitchcock
I am a writer and therefore automatically a suspicious character
I have adopted a quote from a great director and certainly a personality in his own right, Sir Alfred Joseph Hitchcock.
Using the quote on my blog main page, I consider it to be the utmost homage to Hitchcock. And as life would have it, the quote fits my own personality like a glove 😉
