The lifespan of the human is thought to be determined by environment and genetics, but actually God's grace and his determination trump both of those indicators. In other words, we do not know how long we will live. I witnessed a 100 year old woman last night, singing, eating, and visiting in a social setting, like she would go on forever. It seems that a tulip's life is pretty much determined by environment. They have had a very long and beautiful life this year due to the very cool weather, but even they must eventually 'fall apart'. We all have only so much time and must make life beautiful where we are planted before we too, start dropping our petals.

nice pics. thank you for commenting on my blog post last night. i got two comments, actually, and was surprised, because i've had blogs before and no one ever seemed to stumble upon them, so i was just typing away, imagining i was only talking to myself. i do think you misunderstand, however. i do have friends. many good friends. and family. and co-workers. i have people who care about me. faith is a whole other subject, of course. nature is my religion, and i worship it as often as possible.
