Loyalties

ALOHA!




Click on the pics - if you wish!

"Our national flower
is the concrete cloverleaf."


Lewis Mumford




"All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle
and plant a flower
wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind. "

Lincoln



"Happiness held is the seed;
Happiness shared is the flower."

John Harrington





"Brass shines as fair to the ignorant
as gold to the goldsmiths."

Elizabeth I






"The fact that I can plant a seed
and it becomes a flower,
share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another's,
smile at someone and receive a smile in return,
are to me continual spiritual exercises."
Leo Buscaglia

It seems to me
that our most enduring loyalties
are to those
who have treated us
with kindness. . .


Like YOU!


Thanks, cloudia
