The WHOLE part of the LITTLE pictures.

"A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty… The true value of a human being is determined primarily by the measure and the sense in which they have obtained liberation from the self. … We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive." (Albert Einstein, 1954)

Stamp that passport sister!! It's Bahamas time!!

One of the things my sister Kimmie enjoyed most about the Bahamas???

"My favorite thing about the trip was by far the people who live there. I was amazed at how genuine the people were. You always have those that are sucking up to you because you’re an obvious tourist and they want your money. But those are easy to weed out. There were TONS who were absolutely genuine and just wanted to be nice and/or help you. I had two favorite moments in regards to this: One was when we were riding the moped and the kids had just gotten out of school and a group of them came running by waving and yelling, “Welcome to the Bahamas!!!”. Two was when we were approached by this sweet little old man, Charles, who had just gotten off work- was on his way home and saw us reading the sign about the trail he was building. He turned around and asked us if we’d like a tour and he took us on a tour telling us all about it and how he’s building it, when it will open, etc. Incredible people!!!!!!!"

Congratulations on your very first stamps in your passport my sister!!!!!

Oh yeah...and the amazing photo is OF COURSE by her superstar hubby THE Stanster!!
