facebook, a blessing or a curse?

“Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars, and they pass by themselves without wondering.”     St. Augustine of Hippo

Used with discretion and purpose it can be a great forum for the sharing of thoughts, ideas, questions, wisdom and humor (we all Need to laugh!), as well as for staying connected with loved ones who live across the country and sometimes the world.

When I don’t take the time to go out with my camera, sometimes all I need to do is step outside my front door to see what new painting will behold me, framed by the ever present oaks.
