Life in Sunny Dubai

Fairy lights

Don't you just love dusk? I love taking pictures at this time and today I had this fine palm tree specimen. They do lighting really well here and palm trees get extra special treatment because a. they bear very useful fruit, b. they can be used for lots of other things (building traditional homes) and c. they are just plain pretty so much so that we have islands built off the coast in the shape of them!

Had my SG CD on again today as I showered and this is another song that really makes me smile.

When I wake up I am on my way
Reinventing the wheel and saving the day.
And I've learnt this lesson a thousand times,
I am the branch and You are the vine.
And apart from You we are mice and men
With our fancy dreams of grandeur,
And no way to get there.
And I can think about You now and then
Or make a mark on eternity
Lord first of all, how is it between You and me?


from How is it Between Us? by Sara Groves, 1999

I don't think I ever set out to work wanting to reinvent the wheel but I can relate to TRYING TO save days! Glad I'm older and wiser . . .
