Realize Today

A  L  O  H  A !
" What a wonderful life I've had! 

 I only wish 

 I'd realized it sooner. "

 Colette









" Precisely the least, 

 the softest, 

 lightest, 

 a lizard's rustling, 

 a breath, a flash, 

 a moment - 

 a little -

 makes the way 

 of the best happiness. "

 Friedrich Nietzsche 




“ Reject your sense of injury 
and the injury itself disappears.”

 Marcus Aurelius

    Good Sunday morning! I'm realizing, or wondering, did a gardener trim those palms, or do they grow that way? Ah, maybe that's the gecko's job.

    Aloha Cloudia, you always bring just the right quote! So often I wish those little lizards lived around here like our squirrels. Every now and then we may get a tree frog that unexpectedly greets you in the kitchen. But not often enough!

    I do, I do. I've had times in my childhood that were difficult, but it was been balanced by the wonderful times I'm having now. So yes, I do realize it.
