Have you noticed?
Our culture doesn't respect those
who make others feel comfortable.
Doing so is considered the job of servants & underlings.
But Jesus, Buddha, and your grandma
drew hearts close with the charisma of love.
"Who would be great, must be servant of all."
Would you rather be feared. . . or loved?

In south of france in an area called the Camargue. they are pink flamingoes.
Over here Autumn is the beginning of winter.
Love the photos and quotes. I want be a nut who holds her ground!
Loved is better. There is such strength in that.
It's amazing, working with kids, to see how many people fear them and try to instill fear instead. That's no way to live.
When love is lost, fear enters.
....Leonard Cohen! I was just listening to "Ten New Songs" last night.
I have heard that flamingoes are some stinky birds, and that the "water" they stand in would curl your toes. Oh well, a girl can't be stunning and a good housekeeper too! ;-)
Loved, of course. Although I realize the 'power' that comes with being feared, working in a school!
Beautiful photos. Thanks for winging me into Hawaii today!
Your photos are wonderful to see, for me. I thank you too for seeing my new blog.
This is very touching and questioning! The obvious choice would be to be loved by all. How can I serve you ma'am?

Personally I would rather be loved with respect than feared or simply loved.
Some days I would opt for fear .. I am a project coordinator
Some good quotes there - especially the first one, I thought.
of course love..
Great pics, as always! You've got an award waiting for you on my blog!!! Aloha, cher!
I want to be loved! and to serve!
I love the quote about the nut that held its ground.
Thanks for a great start to my day.
I had a boss once, he managed by tyranny. Everyone feared him. He dropped dead of a heart attack at 41 years old and his wife told me that only a sprinkling of obliged family members attended. Even his son from a previous marriage didn't show.
Love is what counts. Love rules.
I adore what Fireblossom said about the pink flamingos!
Loved. Like you love all of us. Like we love you.
Aloha!
Loved. And I like to spread it around! Love those pink flamingos!
<><
I love those spindly-legged birds. Wish I could gaze upon some right now. It's cool and cloudy here in MA. :-/
Oloha and thanks for your sunshine!
loved, always. Aloha, Cloudia!
Wow photos-- and of course great quotes. Aloha.
Definitely LOVED. Definitely.
What an amazing crop of comments, you lovely people!!!!
Apt quotations with awesome photos. Thanks, Cloudia.
Love rules.
It was only in the late 90s when I lived at Heifer Ranch that I first heard (from the good Christians) the term "servant heart" and "servant leadership."
BTW dear Cloudia, your words always carry me away so much I forget to comment what beautiful photos you offer as well.
