Provisionally Perfect

A L O H A From Honolulu!


If there's any definition
to being perfect,
you're perfect at
being yourself.
Zendaya




      HRH Kamehameha III   Link

There is no way to
genuinely, powerfully,
truly love yourself
while crafting a
mask of perfection.
   Vironika Tugaleva







We come to love
not by finding
a perfect person, but
by learning to see an
imperfect person perfectly.
    Sam Keen





Everything is perfect
and there is always
room for improvement.
   Shunryu Suzuki









 19th Century entrepreneur real estate developer C.S. Desky, built the Progress Building at Fort Street and Beretania in downtown Honolulu.
It is Richardson Romanesque style in local Oahu stone.  Link


"Desky treated the public to
surprise after surprise...
The new Progress Block
erected by him...
deserves a special mention
being the best finished
and up-to-date building
ever seen in Honolulu." 
 The Independent, April 25, 1898
    Link















When you're having
what you feel like
is a "bad day" and
then someone comes
along out of nowhere
and extends to you the
simplest of kind gestures,
you feel it so deeply
within your heart.

Miya Yamanouchi

Perfection? In people? Pfft. Not a happening thing. My mother always said that she preferred our faults to other people's virtues...

Cloudia said...

Interesting!

Great timing on the first one. I like the posing dogs as well. And Pixie never gets old.

I think Pixie is finished exercising in front of the mirror. Now she can take on the day.
Always enjoy your photographs plus the quotes. Have a good week.
