Waiting....

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time.
We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek."  Barack Obama
A pretty view from an early morning beach walk to celebrate SkyWatch Friday !
Thank you to my blogging friends who pointed out that Gandhi said something similar in "be the change you want to see in the world". The reason why I always look out for good quotes is because - there are lots of them to choose from and sometimes they kind of sound the same.  


This week's creation is a submission to Altered Pages Spring Hats competition.

I'm not sure which of the last 3 scenes I'd like to place myself in--I think I could be quite happy at any of those places. Love your quote. Have a pleasant day. Mickie :)

Another perfect quote. And another dream-like shot. You always make me stop for a minute and think about where I'm at. I also love that quote from Hannah in your last post. She's just too cool. Pruxxx

And Obama, without a doubt, is a great man with a good heart..., if only he was the change.
