Has been awhile since I have seen a decent sunset. Many clouds lately. But today there was finally one and I witnessed it from the deck.
Perfect ending to any day. Made me so happy to watch the sun go down. Mother nature has much for all of us to enjoy.
I call this pin oak my sunset tree.

@CarolDM I had no idea the following quote was attributed to her.
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.
I love that quote.

Happiness is a personal choice, I've missed all too often.

Thanks for sharing such a beautiful sunset, the colors are gorgeous! And thanks for sharing Helen Keller's wisdom, 'making the most of today and making the most of myself!' I pray that I can do this, also.

That's so cute. I didn't see much of one because clouds came in. We didn't get any rain, though. So, I guess that's a good thing.

Ooh, that's beautiful! It got too cloudy here for a sunset, but it's nice to see that the sun does still exist.

@CarolDM — I watch the sunset on a webcam from Waikiki.

I like that quote. It's been years, since I was young actually, since I read about her life.
I've been enjoying more sunsets lately too but at work.
You're picture isn't there anymore.
It's sunny here again this morning I hope the sun is brightening your day but if it's not I know you'll find something to take pleasure in.

@CarolDM I never thought of removing my photos before. I never look to see if any have been used either.
