Words of St. Francis - September 23, 2014

For Carpe Diem Special, St. Francis' words:
 


“Remember that when you leave this earth you can take nothing of what you have received, but only what you have a given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice, and courage.”

§§§ 

Yellow Bear Caterpillar Cocoon The remains of a pupa,
Galleryhip


empty branch
dried coccon abandoned
floating butterfly
