Walk & Talk Waikiki

Aloha Sweetie!


you can click on these shots if you like :)

"Certain kinds of truths

are convincing

only in narrative."


Adam Gropnik


so let me tell you a story as we walk...



"Be passers-by."

Jesus,
in the Gospel of Thomas


We walk aimlessly through Waikiki. . .




Everywhere the story unfolds. . .

superceding. . . so that i forget what was wanting to be said. . .


"We think that by naming

we can understand,

as if the tongue

were more than muscle."


Gary Whitehead



>>


We are all purveyors

or our own opinions;


Behaving as evangelists,

shouting on street corners,

assuming each passer-by

is a heathen.


If only they would listen

to

ME!



Sharing stolen zingers

no one's listening to deeply held beliefs;

is it any wonder

communication

finds no place

to grow?



So glad YOU stopped by! cloudia

  5. So glad to stop here this afternoon, my friend. Your thoughts make me think of the words of a friend, "It's none of my business what you think of me," he says. So true. Opinions should be private. That leaves room to see and know people.

  7. Outstanding captures.
    The Gospel of Thomas? That's a new one. It must be filled with doubt.
