A perfect life would tend to become dull, uninteresting, a tad boring perhaps? I am not saying that I would not mind trying the perfect life...sans crisis! But, is that not when we dig deep within ourselves and come out with that which we did not know we had within us??? Hmmmm.... I would love to find one of those little bottles afloat on the sea with a few lines of poetry! I too look forward to hearing all about your adventures!<br />NathalieDolceDreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05324143360354660739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-47582512358903397092009-06-29T15:25:51.489-07:002009-06-29T15:25:51.489-07:00I'm afraid that I'm a bit ignorant on what...I'm afraid that I'm a bit ignorant on what the "crisis" is. :( I'm sorry but I am curious. I would really appreciate it if you could explain. Did you mean the financial crisis which the world seems to be going through or am I misinformed and is that just an American crisis? :(Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887769230434855268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-74391221872748851372009-06-29T15:24:35.095-07:002009-06-29T15:24:35.095-07:00Love these photos!

Love the idea of a poem in a bottle contest. It's such a gesture to life and creative living...yes, and romantic too. What is the crisis theme? The crisis of the times: the situation in the Middle East? North Korea? Sorry about my ignorance but I'm living on an island (as you know) and I get my news through the computer, mostly. I think it would be fun to enter the contest...with my bad Spanish and all. I think you should too-and I'm sure your Spanish is much better than mine. Besides, the idea is to have a poem to throw into the sea...even if I throw it in the sea myself. Anyone around here who found a message in a bottle would probably prefer it in Spanish anyway. <br /><br />I love the setting and your beautiful photos. Have a sun-drenched restful week! <3Cynthia Pittmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656761837022197235noreply@blogger.com
