Honolulu Calling

A  L  O  H  A !                                



"The coldest winter I ever saw

 was the summer I spent

 in San Francisco." 

Attributed to Mark Twain











“ Everything is relative

 in this world, where 

change alone endures. ”

Leon Trotsky












“Put your hand on a hot stove

 for a minute, 

and it seems like an hour.

 Sit with a pretty girl

 for an hour, 

and it seems like a minute. 

THAT'S relativity.”

 Albert Einstein 










" It was one of those March days

 when the sun shines hot 

and the wind blows cold: 

when it is summer

 in the light,

 and winter

 in the shade."

Charles Dickens 
















62 F /  17 C

That was this morning's 

LOW Temp



To YOU:  Balmy

To us: 

Holy S***! #$%&**''"#"`!!!!!



There are in our world

right now

today

many many people

who would

gladly

trade places

with You or me.


Let's really appreciate,

savor,

what we have,

and do not have

to put up with.


Go ahead:

! CeLeBrAtE !


If that seems

wrong, or

puzzling to YOU,

then YOU REALLY

NEED IT.

Welcome

to the party

                        Warmly, cloudia

Aye, tis true. I forgot about at times how many would like to have what I take for granted.

I always loved that Einstein quote! And I sympathize - that is *cold* for Honolulu! Yup, all relative, especially since it's 43F here and that's considered warm:)

I had to smile that the stove quote. Just had the misfortune to burn the palm of my hand last week. Conclusion - it hurt - all better now. Have a lovely weekend.

I do love your rainbows. You seem to live in rainbow central - which I envy. Brilliant quotes too - thank you.
