There has never been a time when you and I and the kings gathered here have not existed, nor will there be a time when we will cease to exist. As the same person inhabits the body through childhood, youth, and old age, so too at the time of death he attains another body. The wise are not deluded by these changes.
The Bhagavad Gita
very clever ‘photo’, excellent
Thank you
I installed the latest version (as a trial) of the utility I used to manipulate the photo. The photo has appeared in many different versions over the years
The latest version of the utility is a poor comparison of the previous version. I need to see if I can get the old one working with the latest version of Windows…
Great looking lake. Most of our mountain lake is still to cold to visit.
Coffee is on
Buttermere is a beautiful lake
Reincarnation has always been a fascination for me, Cherry. It does make you wonder.
It is an interesting concept
I would be interested in the other versions, Cherie
The original where you can flecks of dust because it was scanned from a film photograph:

A really beautiful picture/painting perfect for this deep quote!
Thanks Donna, I am glad you like it

We are ‘Currently resting’.
It is very kind of you to keep those there links to the old blogs of mine & old friends.
I wonder what old Angus is up to these days? I miss his humour.
I was talking to an old blog friend the other day about lack of blogs, she said she ‘had lost her Mo-jo.
Well, years ago ‘mojo’ was another word for ‘charm’ or ’spell’, but I hear it has now been dragged into the 21stC, and like ‘marriage’ been redefined. It now means sex appeal or talent.
You will of course be pleased to know that I am not actually resting, and that I’m told I’m still talented and have not lost any of my ’sex appeal’!
As we said at school – “Cogito ergo sum” – I am thinking, therefore I exist”
I hope your mojo, as in ‘charm’ and charming, never fails.
Bernard.
It is nice to hear from you again
Currently resting is a good place to be when not out and about getting blogging Mo-jo 
Thank you for your kind words
I try to keep my friends happy by posting interesting things for them to enjoy. It will soon be time for me to go out and get some 2015 photos!
The photo works so well with the words!!
Thank you
