Disguised

A   L   O   H   A  !

You must not for one instant 

give up the effort to build new lives 

for yourselves. Creativity means to 

push open the heavy, groaning 

doorway to life. 

     Daisaku Ikeda













The world is full of people 

who have never, 

since childhood, 

met an open doorway 

with an open mind. 

E. B. White

















 O passing angel, 

speed me with a 

song, a melody of heaven 

to reach my heart and 

rouse me to the race 

and make me strong.     

Christina Georgina Rossetti




- without being seen, 

they are present with you.   
  
St. Francis de Sales















The Shower Tree

is a Flower Tree.

Bunches of Oriental Lanterns

hanging, swaying, 

lit by the sun.

(Or Moonlight)

This is the 

Rainbow Variety,

Honolulu's official tree.

Angels come to us 

disguised.

As a cat lover, tree hugger and beauty addict I am grateful (again) for your posts.

"...the heavy, groaning, doorway to life."

I think my door is a revolving door.

They shower trees are so gorgeous. The golden tabebuia is really spectacular these days too. I do love seeing that shining color as we pass by.

Love the cool pictures of the shower tree and angels, and Pixie the furry angel :) Great quotes today, too.

One of my angels keeps nipping on the leg to play with him!

Got to love them!
