Why Can't We Be Friends?

A L O H A !





" Each step we take 
creates a cool breeze,
 refreshing our body and mind. 
Every step 
makes a flower bloom
 under our feet. " 

- Thich Nhat Hahn











“ There are only two ways to live your life.
 One is as though nothing is a miracle.
 The other
 is as though everything
 is a miracle. ”

Albert Einstein












" To what shall I liken the world?
Moonlight, reflected in dewdrops.
Shaken from a crane's bill. "

 The ocean is made up
 of tiny drops of water. "

Great cat and dolphin video! I ;ve seen several like this and I heard about one showing a friendly encounter between a dog and an orca.

Cloudia, your photos and quotes always bring peace to my heart. The little video is wonderful. "Why Can't We ALL Be Friends?" This video is Aloha manifest, as you taught us before/

Very cute video although i thought at one stage the cat would end up in the water. I like the quote by Thich Nhat Hahn and the welcoming rainbow photo :-).

I dig the music. I always sing along when it comes on the radio. It makes me think of college and doing shots in our dorm rooms and making quick friends with everyone who dropped in.

Cloudia said...

Jolly!

Maude Lynn said...

That Einstein quote is one of my favorites!

Wow! This is just so sweet. I wonder if the dolphins smell like fish. It would smell like lovely perfume to the kitty.

Joop Zand said...

Reader Wil said...

I love the video of the dolphin and the cat!
Groetjes, Wil

the walking man said...

I think the cat had gone slightly insane:

1) It didn't try to eat the dolphin

2) It was near water

3) It knew to keep it's claws in so it didn't become food.

Unknown said...

Those dewdrops on that leaf are just stunning Cloudia, absolutely stunning!

Lynn said...

I love that dolphin and cat video. Wonderful.

Akelamalu said...

We are friends!

The cat and the dolphin film is just M.A.G.I.C.A.L.!
