When things are spectacularly dreadful; when things
are absolutely appalling; when everything is superb and wonderful and
marvellous and happy - say these four words to yourself.
They will give you a sense of perspective
and help you also to make the most of what is good
and be stoical about what is bad.
This too will pass

Hello again Wil. You must have posted shortly after I left a comment on the previous post. I love the Dutch windmill. They are so fascinating. I had a small wooden one in my flower bed in Florida, but the strong wind storms tore it up. I now have a plastic one with metal blades and little solar panels on top which lights it up slightly in the evening. I liked my wooden one better. Can't have everything!
Lisa
beautiful views you have
I hope you stop by at my SWF post also in HERE or HERE. Thanks
Excellent and relaxing pictures. Love your soft clouds and the depth in the shots. Well done
I love your photoes. The last one is my favorite today:)
Thanks, I will remember to tell myself:
This too will pass!
Awesome series of shots!
Lovely photos, Wil. Thanks. I like them all but especially enjoyed seeing the windmill. (I'm fascinated by them.)
I also very much appreciated your comments concerning "This too shall pass." It's a reminder that I've often called upon.
The countryside in the Netherlands is so lovely. It looks restful, even though it takes a lot of energy to keep a place looking so nice. ;-)
Happy Sky Watch!
So many beautiful pictures of sky - your country is very pretty indeed. Thank you for your visit and greetings from Croatia
These are just fabulous. I like them all! What great scenery...
I hope these beautiful clouds will linger, because we know these too will pass. Thanks for the reminder.

Dear old Claire Raynor.
Those clouds are absolutely gorgeous! I think that's my word for the day. There have been so many stunning photos, it's hard to say anything else. Plus the pain killers are making me very mellow :)
Gday Wil, Beatiful Photos of Holland love the rolling hills and my favorite is the one with the windmill.
Hihi - someone said Hills in Holland! ;) Beautiful images! Wonderfully done! That would have been perfect for MyWorld, too!
Cheers, Klaus
I have enjoyed my visit to the Netherlands. I don't think I've been here before, if I have I don't remember. The pictures are lovely, and I will be back often to enjoy your beautiful photos.
Love your photos today as well as your gentle reminder. The clods and rolling hills are much like where I was raised. Beautiful.
Lovely photos, I'll have to remember those four words, This To Will Pass.
Have a fabulous week-end.
I visited your wonderful country and stayed for about a month - a lifetime ago.....wish I could remember the town's name I stayed in. The Grommer family was just wonderful to me and showed me just about all of Holland. Your excellent photos bring back many wonderful memories. What a great SWF post!
And Claire Rayner's word are so needed for the here and now. Thank you.
Lovely photos of some beautiful skies. I enjoyed the quote too. :)
These are gorgeous photos. Thanks for sharing.
Really awesome shots of a beautiful view.
Lovely landscapes featuring water, water giving depth and dynamism to the stillness of the countryside.
wonderful skies and one of my all time sayings that i use most is this too shall pass! but sometimes in the thick of it it sure gets overwhelming :)
Happy SWF!
I think I made those photos...!
I've borrowed the poem from you, and made a link to your blog in a post. Hope it's ok!
True words, good advice, lovely photos - thanks so much for joining us.
A very nice set of photos for Sky Watch! Love days with clouds like the ones you show here.
Great shots of the sky and clouds. and the qoute was poinant.
This too will pass
Cheers
Flat, water and windmills - it must be the Netherlands!
