Our Best Intentions

WE ARE not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature. - Abraham Lincoln
Only a thought for today. More tomorrow - femminismo

This photo coupled with this quotation fills me with such a such a wistfulness. The seasons don't just apply to Mother Nature, but human nature as well. (: "The mystic chords of memory..." Wow.

What a beautiful photograph. And "the better angels of our nature" reminds me of another quote. "I truly believe most people are good at heart." Wasn't that Anne Frank? Is this hope caused too by the better angels of our nature?
Thanks and have a great week!
