A L O H A from Honolulu!
I have always been
fascinated by the past,
even before
I spent so much
of my life there.

of tomorrow

People who are tall
have heard the jokes
before.
Why would You
want to be
the 439,95763,374,650th
'wit' to call her 'Shorty'
or inquire as to the
Weather 'up there'?
The guy with the broken arm
probably does NOT
want to tell you
the story again.
People who are different
from You,
different Race Gender Culture
Clothing Style Slogans
are MORE than
that difference!
They are NOT
walking examples
of something you
believe.
They are not
a characteristic.
They are a human.
Children stare.
Mature people
Welcome.
Grow Up!
Then come goof around
here in a delightfully
immature way :)
Fondly, cloudia

Must be kind of boring to not be to tall, to fat, to short, to skinny, to off beat, on beat, hip, not hip, personally I just hide behind my beard so no one can see what part of me to jab. All I know is my short friends like it when i use their heads as a leaning post, makes them feel needed.
AMAZING YOUR POST.I LOVE YOU PICS
Hello Cloudia, wonderful post, quotes and images today. Have a happy day!
You make uncommon sense, Cloudia, as always! You rock! Great wisdom infusion for Friday.
Yeah, I very seldom joke with complete strangers. The jokes that occur to me are likely to be cliche to them.
The only tall people I know always make jokes about short people .. Height is without doubt one of those things where size does NOT matter :) so says shorty moi :)
Loved the quotes and the lessons today. That little girl in the last picture is such a cutie!
I like the last picture...grandpa & grandchild..special bonding.
Thanks, lovely friends
On the past- me too. I plan on goofing around as much as possible once my adult (kid free) weekend begins! Oh yeah- party hearty in the heat-loving-wave.... Aloha!
Our inner children would have a ball together...
Strange picture of the lady in the empty room.

somewhat sobering, they are more than that difference...i like the push to look beyond the obvious though...people are far more than what we take them for...

A wonderful post today, Cloudia!
I have a friend in England who is 6'7" and everyone notices him when you walk in somewhere - but he does get a lot of pints bought for him in pubs so it balances out!
I love the last image.
Hugs
