- "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
- A neighbor pulling in front of my car at the trash compactor at the condos wordlessly reaches for my bag of trash to throw in with his.
- Feeling a bit wistful at the thought of leaving a warm house at 7am this morning for the commute. But remembering how many people I know who are out of work and remembering what that is like. It is my three-year anniversary week at my current job.
The photo was taken the Friday before the big snow in the back of the building in which I work.

Without the darkness there is no light through the light we can see the darkness
A picture is worth a thousand words and a ides is worth a thousand pictures
A helping hand not pasted along dies without meaning
Warmth kept to oneself will not warm the heart
Small pay for a big job will encourage one more than a free handout.
The quote is a nice touch today, Lynn. :-) I wonder what might be different today had he lived.
Lovely picture, I like the sky reflected in the puddle. Congratulations on your 3 year anniversary--yesterday marked my 7that my current job.
Love the photo.
Yes we often moan about work etc, but where would we be without it really?
Congrats on your 3 year anniversary. :)
Love the photo, love the quote, love the neighbor, love your work attitude. Happy 3rd Anniversary:)
Wow Lynn! That's a great 'reflection' photo! How cool that you caught that in the puddle in the forefront. This doesn't happen all that often! What a great pink sky; mottled looking. Thanks!

That morning was just gray until I walked around the corner and saw that view of the sky and the reflection in the puddle. It's why I keep my camera with me all the time.

We'd be without a paycheck! :)

A particularly glorious moment. And lucky me that there is a pothole there so I could have the reflection. :)
Wow - the perfect quote to accompany an astonishing shot. Isn't it wonderful how beauty can show up in the most unexpected of places?
Beautiful shot, and what a thoughtful neighbor you have.
Happy 3 years! Wow, time flies.
Happy MLK day!! Words so true.
Cool photo indeed!
What were you listening to today on your commute?

I wanted to pay tribute to Dr. King's day today and that seemed like such a perfect quote.

He is thoughtful. And quiet! :)

On my commute today I listened to NPR news - the music on my regular stations weren't doing it for me.

Fortunately the snow is on the wane. :)
Nice photo and MLK quote! I'm actually starting to enjoy my morning commute. Love the chat time with the kids, loud music and hot cafe con leche I prepare for the road!
Have a great week, chica!

I don't mind it really - after the initial blast of cold air and getting the car warmed up. There's always a book or music to listen to. I like the thought of that hot drink for the road.
Oooo What a spectacular sky! With the reflection it's a great pic- Thanks for the MLK quote-
You have really nice neighbors. 3 years is ok because you seem to like all your work adventures.

There's not enough $$$ associated with it, but is fun most days. :)
