Forever Young


 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

May you grow up to be righteous, 
may you grow up to be true. 
May you always know the truth 
and see the lights surrounding you. 
May you always be courageous, 
stand upright and be strong. 
May you stay forever young.
Bob Dylan




Clarity comes not from
the absence of confusion but
from the courage to face it
with an open mind.
Joseph Meyering Sr.





Believe in yourself and
there will come a day when
others will have no choice
but to believe with you.
Cynthia Kersey

Love You,

Pixie & Cloudia



Joy is an emotion
that sustains hope,
makes us feel close
to others and
helps us sense the
value of life itself.

Luna Lovely

 

 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

Autumn is the season

when cathedrals of

memories are built.

They become palaces of light,

amid the falling leaves. Jayita Bhattacharjee

🌤


Caesalpinia pulcherrima var. lutea
Yellow Peacock Flower, Yellow Bird of Paradise,
Pride of Barbados

Yellow flowers are the brightest and most optimistic of all, spreading sunshine and happiness wherever they go.

Unknown



Just another normal day on another normal street— a child skips ahead, an elder rests her feet. Some of us hurry, some take it slow— life stages passing as we come and go.

Pixie



It's awfully important
to know what
is and what isn't
your business.
Gertrude Stein

Luna

by Cloudia Charters


You need not be full
to be lovely.
Even a sliver of you
reminds me
change is not always loss.


You do not hurry.
Neither must I.
Some nights
your company is enough:
a little room for mystery.
You keep no calendar
of my mistakes.


I'll let the day go.
You keep the night.


Luna above.
Quiet within.
Dear Luna, 
I’m still becoming.

Willing


 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

In life, you can never be

too kind or too fair;

everyone you meet is

carrying a heavy load.

When you go through your day expressing kindness and

courtesy to all you meet,

you leave behind a feeling

of warmth and good cheer,

and you help alleviate

the burdens everyone

is struggling with.

Brian Tracy




Happiness is an attitude.

We either make ourselves

miserable or happy and strong.

The amount of work

is the same.

Francesca Riegler


Being deeply loved

by someone gives

you strength, while l

loving someone deeply

gives you courage.

Lao Tzu




Be willing to have it so.

Acceptance of

what has happened

is the first step

to overcoming...

William James

Land With Love

 

A L O H A
from
H O N O L U L U

Never let hard lessons

harden your heart;

the hard lessons

of life are meant to

make you better,

not bitter.

  Roy T. Bennett





 Rose-ringed parakeet, 

Indian ringneck parakeet. 


One joy scatters

 a hundred griefs.

 Chinese proverb




Marin County N. California


Sometimes the most

important thing in

a whole day is the

rest we take

between two

deep breaths.

       Etty Hilsum





What matters is

that we let our lives

be guided by Love.

Land With Love


The eye grew wings
and saw the world.
Learned that
seeing everything
is not the same as
noticing what matters.


Even a winged eye

still needs a heart to

know where to land.

Carry Your Dreams Lightly


 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

Pegasus Carry your dreams lightly. They have far to go. Let them rest between my wings. The sky will be there tomorrow.

Cloudia Charters



We start as fools 

and become wise 

through experience.

                    Proverb, Tanzania




The true harvest of 
my life is intangible -
a portion of the rainbow
 a little star dust caught, 
I have clutched.
                           Thoreau

We Love You,

Pixie & Cloudia




Rainbow orbs bless the entrance to enchantment. The little lights seem to know me.


Even here

in wonder

I belong.
