Life Kaleidoscope

A L O H A




Means YOU are Warmly Welcome Here :)




"There is much pleasure to be gained
from useless information."

Bertrand Russell

"In water one sees one's own face;

 But in wine one beholds the heart of another”

 French Proverb







"She has a light inside her
that makes other people
look better."

Homer Simpson,

What a weekend!
Was yours hectic as well?

New horizons seem to be opening up to me.
I can hear
new opportunities singing
 over the next hill.


And part of that feeling
is absolute comfort
with
TODAY;

Just the way it is.

Ups and downs make the
ride what it is!

Keep YOUR rubber
firmly on the road;

Until it is time to lift those wheels
as you take off
to the open skies,
to 
your 
dreams!

Have a wonderful flight,
you are cleared for takeoff!

        Fondly, Cloudia

As per usual, I'm reading a week's worth of blog posts at a time and I have to say that made for a wonderful, optimistic read first thing in the morning. I particularly love that you had such a nice experience with your author friend. There are so many people it is easy to wish success for an to, he is obviously one of those people it is easy to wish well, and so are you :-)
