Moody Skies Over Hawaii

A  L  O  H  A !

" Adversity is like a strong wind.
 It tears away from us 
all but the things 
that cannot be torn, 
so that we see 
ourselves 
as we really are. "

Arthur Golden, 
Memoirs of a Geisha






" I'd like to just get 
one of those pink clouds 
and put you in it 
and push you around.  "

F. Scott Fitzgerald








" A cloudy day
 is no match 
for 
sunny disposition.  "

William Arthur Ward








" Don't
 let one cloud 
obliterate the whole 
sky. "

Anais Nin







" O it is pleasant, 
with a heart at ease,
Just after sunset,
 or by moonlight skies,
To make the shifting clouds 
be what you please. "

Samuel Taylor Coleridge


It is delightful
when we drift
together like this -

I find much pleasure in drifting, and clouds and lovely sunsets and quieit sunrises and alone time to reflect!

Hey Cloudia -- Mahalo for the ride in the clouds; I like being pushed around in them. Better than being a Care Bear!
Aloha, DrumMajor

And, of course, every cloud has a silver lining! :)

Spectacular colours and wonderful quotes. I love that first image. Thanks for allowing me to do some cloud-watching.

A strong wind is one thing, but what if adversity is like Hurricane Katrina?

Cloudia said...

Glad you survived that big blow, Charles.



thanks, EACH of YOU

I don't mind cloudy skies sometimes a cool dark day is a nice change in the heat of summer.
