Looking for a title for this one, painting is easier than titles, sometimes. How about a little help from my friends? This should be fun! Wishing you all an awesome day!😁

Fond memories of my Dad, Lt. Col Walter J Stemple, though he passed when I was a child, I have so many vivid memories of him. He taught me to read when I was 5, taught me to fish, and instilled in me the love of Nature and drawing, and reading and learning. These are the qualities that have given me guidance throughout my life. I had the best parents in the world, and I will forever be thankful.

Just thinking today about the amazing wonder of living in beautiful Florida..so many adventures, surprising sightings of wildlife like this fine fellow, a Florida Panther, seen sitting on a woodpile in the early morning fog. Good morning to all of our wonderful friends out there, you have made our lives so rich with your friendship. Treat yourself kindly...you deserve the best. 💓

A violinist played for 45 minutes in the New York subway. A handful of people stopped, a couple clapped, and the violinist raised about $30 in tips.

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. In that subway, Joshua played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. And two days before he played in the subway, with again not many people appreciating his skills .

Joshua Bell sold out a Boston theatre, and the seats averaged about $100.

The experiment proved that the extraordinary in an ordinary environment does not shine and is so often overlooked and undervalued.

There are brilliantly talented people everywhere who aren’t receiving the recognition and reward they deserve. But once they arm themselves with value and confidence and remove themselves from an environment that isn’t serving them, they thrive and grow.

Your gut is telling you something. Listen to it if it’s telling you where you are isn’t enough!

Go where you are appreciated and valued.
