Every Most Beautiful Day

A L O H A From Honolulu!

In Morning Light


Give every day 
the chance to become 
the most beautiful 
day of your life. 
  Mark Twain









Thanks to the morning light,
Thanks to the foaming sea,
To the uplands of New Hampshire,
To the green-haired forest free.
Ralph Waldo Emerson





Shooting this scene, 
I thought:

"This is where
all my blog pals
will join together
for a lawn party."  *

A few feet from
Waikiki Beach.



* Yes, with drinks







Each one starting 
the day with solitude,
yet, sharing our 
humanity & life
in a unique way. 

Visitors, locals,
passing through. 

I have walked here
since the 1980's. 

Ships and planes
pass by, emphasizing that
We Are Here Now.

A privilege for which 
I am grateful.




















It is only through shadows
that one comes to
know the light. St. Catherine of Siena

Love You - Good Luck,
Cloudia & Pixie

There is beauty (and joy) in every day when/if we look for it. And I do.

The trees in the 1st photo remind me of a Van Gogh painting. What a privilege for a bloggers' party on the lawn in Waikiki! - walk in beauty.
