This Moment

Aloha Summer-Bunny!

><>


"Children have never been very good at listening to their elders,

but they have never failed to imitate them."

James Baldwin




"At 18 our convictions are hills from which we look;
at 45 they are caves in which we hide."
F. Scott Fitzgerald




This Moment

so rich, so full, so textured. . .

directing it,

'using it'

seems unwise

a waste of it's imminent perfection.

.

So how to make a dream come true?

We invent new ways

to achieve This Moment

so rich, so full, so textured.


Aloha & thank YOU for your visit!

Pop over to 'comments' and leave a howdy-DO :) cloudia

Did YOU make that pretty comfort spiral?

Wise musings today, perfect for Shabbat.

Knowing a bit of how F, Scott and his wife Zelda lived, I know why he needed caves to hide in.

Wow, Cloudia that was very personal and deep and I loved it!

That monograph looks like a fossil in sand, or like a Martian landscape marked by dust devils.

While being young, I always wanted to be old, if ever, guess, it will be the other way round. Nice thoughts indeed. Please have a great Sunday.
