Eye Path

Aloha to

Patiently Playing 'Second Fiddle'

the inexpressible comfort
of feeling safe with a person - "

A Life for a Life, 1859

"Let us be grateful
to people who make us happy, 
they are the charming gardeners 
who make our souls blossom. "

Marcel Proust

is one of the fundamental needs
of human beings. "

Every experienced motorcyclist knows
NOT to look at the rock ahead of you
in the road.
The bike will follow your eye;
Look at the path AROUND the obstacle
and that is the way you will go.
        Just like life. . .cloudia

    Sound advice Cloudia! It's the bigger things, like the counties where the rocks reside that you have to worry about, getting past those mens, to get to the whyv's that's the quest Jon.

    Aloha Cloudia! Glad to see everything is smoothing out a bit there for you.
    Even the water here with the big moon is making tides lower than I've seen here before.

    Great pics, cute chiwawa too-
    The pic below of the sunset is so amazing also!

    Wish I had money for a motorcycle now, the fuel is too expensive for cars! You find the best qoutes!

    Aloha

    A rock in the road is not obstacle unless of course your riding standing on the seat...then it could be a hazard. Besides I always looked at them with my blind left eye.

    That's hard to learn but absolutely necessary. You go where you look.

    Just like riding a horse: look where you are going, not where you are. If only we all lived that way.
