"The number one predictor for general well being is not money or prestige but the time we spend with those that are near and dear to us.
Enjoying close and intimate relationships with those who care about us
is an absolute prerequisite of happiness.
But it is precisely these relationships that suffer most
in our hectic modern life."

"We've all been trained to maximize every minute of our day.
But people who are able to focus on just one thing-
even for one or two hours a day-
are not only happier in their work,
they're also more productive and creative.
Less can be more."

Hi Cloudia.
There seems to be a problem with the audio of my PC, can't hear the music.
Great images and interesting quotations again. If I could apply the "less can be more" with my nursing career, I would love to but I know it is not applicable when it comes to patient care. In some perspective of our life, it could be.
Salaam and salamat for sharing.
Beautiful photos as always.. and wonderful text. I love that spotted eagle ray. How cool is that!
I haven't heard this song in a long time. Thanks for that. :)
Lovely to see you again, my friend! I love the Moodies, and "Tuesday Afternoon" in particular. How did you make that little songbar come up? i really enjoyed hearing the music as i read the post!
Of course, blogfriends count! I would be lost without mine, definitely including present company! Three years ago I had to ask a friend what a blog even was. Now I can't imagine missing all the wisdom, humor and talent of the people who are just a click away, all over the world.
You're something else, the way you keep finding these wonderful quotes and sharing your pictures. I love my daily Hawaii vacation!
Oh my that eagle ray is awesome! I have never seen one.
<><
Nurses do LOTS! Thank you!
Yes, eagle ARE rays cool- so are you Folks!!
is a great site for music where you can make a gadget to put a song on your blog.
"Eagle are rays cool"

You know what I meant, LOL
aaahhh...moody blues in the middle of the night...thank you for that, decades since last I heard anything of them.
Please have a wonderful Wednesday.
Your blog sure makes me happy!! Love the idea that less can be more!
The power of focus and intent. Very powerful stuff.
Mahalo Cloudia.....
I love the Moody Blues in general, and this song in particular!2
Thanks, Cloudia!
I love your photo of the ray.
The neighbourhood is a treasure.

focus is indeed so important. When I'm truly focused on something I feel completely satisfied and happy. I never thing about not being happy.
Great photos! I love the ray!

Hello
I won't go!
I won't go!
I won't go!
What great quotes! Thanks for sharing.
Shalom.
This is a lovely, positive, inspiring post for me to read at 4:00 a.m. Thank you!
That must be my problem, the inability to concentrate on something for any length of time, LOL. I guess my day will come.
