Take away love and our earth is a tomb.

Our earth is a tomb anyway, with or without love (whatever love is).
It is our womb and our tomb.
Love the photo, by the way.
Our earth is a tomb anyway
Now you are getting close to my thoughts on Hell, which I alluded to in a previous thought for the week
And the photo was meant to counteract that thought…
The closest we will ever get to Hell, and the closest we will ever get to Heaven, will both be found here on Earth, in this short life.
And that’s my thought for the week, (Reference: Andrew Scott 1955 – soon)
I see the thought and photo worked well together
I do think the ’soon’ is quite wrong though
The thoughts and the photos always work well together, by stimulating something of interest. I look forward to seeing what you have for us next week.
Ha ha… Don’s so right.
Welcome to the Earth!
I’ve just got back from holiday.
Please come and see my holiday photos tomorrow.
Welcome back LC
I hope you had a good holiday, I look forward to seeing your photos.
I don’t agree with Robert Browning Cherie… because our Earth is love! … we are just fortunate enough the share it for a while!!
i love your blossoms on the tree:-)….peter:)
without love though…
I am glad you like the blossoms
I love your quotes of the week, Cherry, especially with your images! And I really like your new header for this blogsite. WOW.
Thank you Ginnie
The header is L’église du Dôme. Napoleon’s tomb is beneath it.
As true as ever.
The thought is going in the right direction
