Breakfast at Epiphanies

Aloha &
       Welcome Back
                 to Virtual Hawaii


"Plans are nothing sacred.  
If the plan doesn't work, make a new one. 
People don't fail, plans do."









"An authentically powered person
is humble. . .
. . . It is the inclusiveness of one who responds
to the beauty of each soul,
who sees in  each personality
the soul incarnate upon the Earth."

Gary Zukav








" A sarcastic person
has a superiority complex
that can be cured only
by the honesty of humility.  "

Lawrence G. Lovasik
 
 
 








" Do you wish to rise? 
Begin by descending. 
You plan a tower that will pierce the clouds?
Lay first the foundation of humility.  "

Saint Augustine





" Humility 
is a necessary veil 
to all other graces.  "

William Gurnall
 











" Humility and knowledge
in poor clothes
excel pride and ignorance 
in costly attire.  "

William Penn










Each flock of birds lives forever

for they share a single soul

have you seen how they fly together?

Through births, deaths & seasons

each flock of birds

lives forever.

Lovely pairings of images and quotations. Birds don't seem to have to worry about arrogance or humility.

I love your punny titles!!

Like the quote by Serge Kahili King
and Lawrence G. Lovasik. Have you ever heard this quote before "If you fail to plan you plan to fail" have no idea who wrote it :-).

Lovely post, lovely photos. But, as a dedicated bird feeder I have to say that they are often aggressive so and so's. To their own breed andd others.

Cloudia said...

Yes, birds can be tough!

When I was a child the flowers from upper photos were my dream princess dresses, that's where I learned what perfect beauty meant.
Feeding post, as usual.
