A penny for your thoughts #15 (A quote by Pablo Neruda)

Words touch us all in different ways. Sometimes the original intent of a quote resonates so profoundly with us that it is hard to believe that another wrote it. Other times it is a single word, peculiar phrasing, or an alternative meaning regarding an event in our lives that resonates the most. I believe in the power of starting the the week off with a positive or provoking thought -- and so was created A Penny For Your Thoughts. This is a weekly blog hop that will feature quotes of all kinds; classics, character, book-movie, personal, etc. The themes will range from funny to serious, but really it all depends on how you interpret it! How does this work?

1. Every Sunday a quote will be posted
2. Enter by posting your thoughts on a post of your own or the comment section of a participating blog. You only get the penny for one or the other. You can do both but it doesn't count twice. You must ENTER YOUR NAME IN STEP 5 as well. Otherwise I can't keep track of entries.
3. Collect the pennies! Every week there will be a new penny to collect and include with your post, if you choose.
4. RAFFLE ENTRY: Your site or comment needs to be submitted to this form as well so that your name can be uploaded to a raffle generator. If you're using a comment as a submission instead of a post, then put name of site where you left the comment in the "direct link" section.
5. Those with posts can join up on the Linky
6. On the last Saturday of every month the entries from the form above will be entered in a drawing. Winner will be notified on Sunday. You get as many entries as you have pennies for the month. Prizes will include books, gift cards, site promotion, and other bookish winnings!
7. Have fun! This is a fun way to start some discussion, discover blogs, and get to know more people. Please re-post these steps so that followers understand the process.

“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming.”

My thoughts...

It's a beautiful Easter Sunday and I thought this was a perfect quote for those of us that feel like winter is never going to end! It may only be a high of 40F with chances of snow in many places, but the sun in shining, the grass is greening, and I see spring flowers starting to pop up around the area! So Spring must be getting close, Right?!

On a bit of a deeper note, I think this is a short and sweet representation of life. Life goes on.

Collect the penny and share your thoughts! (worth 1 entry)
