Nice Morning

A   L   O   H   A  !
Not only is there a right to be happy, 
there is a duty to be happy. 
So much sadness exists in the world 
that we are all under obligation to 
contribute as much joy as 
lies within our powers.  
            John S. Bonnell 













Honolulu West of the Sun-rising
If we look at the world 
with a love of life, 
the world will reveal 
its beauty to us.

Let's Get a Drink at Arnold's Beach Bar Link
I adore simple pleasures. 
They are the last refuge 
of the complex.

Cloud is a real cutie! As are the Hawaiian clouds dancing in the skies beneath the rising sun.

Cloud is a cutie.
There is beauty everywhere, but I am less convinced about happiness (despite appreciating and relishing the beauty).

Wow! I love Cloud's eyes. It's blue like the sky. It was rainy this morning, but the sun has come out now. Drives mom crazy since she's dying to hang clothes out.
