YELLOW!

if you do not care who gets the credit."
Harry S. Truman
That's integrity.
Looking for the sunshine!
Lately it's been a chameleon-like ability
to adapt to my surroundings.
Seems if you don't have the sense to know
that you can't win if you don't play-
you lose.

I grew up in a little town without alleys.
A most charming place I've come to learn.
A most charming place I've come to learn.
"The buck stops here."
Know who said it?
Popularized by U.S. President Harry S. Truman
who kept a sign with that phrase on his desk in the Oval Office.
The phrase refers to the notion that the President
has to make the decisions and accept the ultimate
responsibility for those actions.
"Actions are the seed of fate, deeds grow into destiny."
Harry S. Truman
These small town shops can't compete with big store outlets.
Of course you're going to shop for the lowest price.
"Men make history and not the other way around.
In periods where there is no leadership
society stands still.
Progress occurs when
courageous, skillful leaders
seize the opportunity
to change things for the better."
Harry S. Truman
Be useful, be honorable, be compassionate
Be Honest and sincere.
make a difference while you can.
Mostly just be Kind.
and take good care of you.

I love the cheerful yellow! I often wish that presidents would remember where the buck stops...
A post to bring a sunny smile to anyone face. If only Trump had Truman's sense!
Bob you are so right!
Wow....a glorious 'spring time color' yellow is. I love the tranquil river reflections and the photo of the little girl in the soldier's arms!!
This was awesome! A perfect, uplifting post for this cold, dreary day. Thanks! Hugs.
Yellow is such an uplifting happy colour, super series of images here Karen. Somehow I think Mr Truman's inspiring quotes will be remembered always while everything about your current leader would be well forgotten ☺
