sitting on my rooftop deck
stressed from hectic day
in the 'stillness' ... releasing
tension from the day.

This morning I heard
Randy Pausch is with us no
longer on this earth
yet his legacy
will live long reminding all
how to embrace life!
This morning I've been
listening again to the
lecture link above
reflecting upon
choices past and present while
focusing on now.
1960-2008

didn't get what you wanted."

Wonderful sunsets.
Beautiful and peaceful view. And a lovely tribute also.
Just beautiful! Also so sorry to hear about Randy Pausch.
What beautiful pictures! It makes me wish I was there!
thanks for visiting today. You have a very beautiful blog . I loved your photos and haiku today.
Love your Skywatch pix and the accompanying thoughtful poetry. Randy Pausch is a great loss.
I am quite saddened to hear that Randy has died. I've listened to lecture several times. I would love to have been his student.
I think I may be one of the only people alive who hasn't heard The Last Lecture yet. I really like your photos, particularly the second one.
You have a spectacular rooftop view. Thanks for the words and images.
Beautiful, beautiful sky! Have a great weekend...
What an amazing sunset!
I am very sorry to hear of Randy Pausch's death - so young, with young children. I am currently reading his Last Lecture book . . .

Storyteller,

I was saddened to learn that Randy Pausch passed away. His legacy is a great gift to us all.

Beautiful skywatch photos. Sorry it has taken me so long to get here. This week life has felt sort of like walking through molasses. So it goes. Beautiful photos and good thoughts on Randy Pausch... he truly did use his illness to spread a lot of healing before he died.
The view inspires tranquility...and I really love that quote at the end--at least ninety percent of what I act the drama queen over isn't really all that bad...but then, I DO love to act the drama queen...
To all – Thanks for visiting my Sky Watch/Haiku Friday post this week. I enjoyed sharing these sunset photos with you and appreciate each of your comments greatly. Perhaps in the future I’ll find time to remove the electrical wires with Photoshop. Visiting others who participate is always a delight … seeing the sky from all over the world at various times of day is an amazing thing in this ‘virtual world’ indeed! The loss of Randy Pausch was certainly expected, but saddens me each time I think of it. If you’ve not had the opportunity, I do hope you’ll check out his last lecture when time permits. I wish I had time today to respond to each of you separately, but I’ve decided a ‘group response’ is the best I can do for now. I hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend.
Hugs and blessings,
Your photographs for Sky Watch are most beautiful! Thanks for sharing them with us. Thanks, also, for your comments about Randy Pausch; he was a remarkable human being.

I’m delighted to find your post this afternoon … more than a week after I shared these photos and close to a week after you left it. Sometimes I fall behind, but I usually manage to catch up eventually … and revisiting my post as I savor your words brings a feeling of gratitude this afternoon.
Hugs and blessings,
