To Thine Own Self Be Kind

Aloha from Honolulu
Father (Saint) Damien's statue
outside of Hawaii State Capitol Link
Appreciate
how well you are coping with this highly
unusual time!

Take a moment to notice
your quiet competence that doesn't shout, but speaks volumes.





Life responds to
the generous.

Heliconia bihai of the family Heliconiaceae
is an erect herb typically growing

South America and
the West Indies. Wikipedia






Learn to see that
the world is a place
of becoming.
Things that bother you
are not finished yet.




Asystasia gangetica, commonly known as
the Chinese violet, coromandel
or creeping foxglove. In
South Africa this plant may
simply be called asystasia.

Tough Times Don't Last.
Loving, Kind People DO.
Be loving and kind
to YOURSELF.

Gorgeous post today. I love that Pixie is turning the world upside-down, or is that right-side-up?

Father Damien must be very much loved. I like the statue and the two part mural. I also like the beaitiful flowers you shared and of course, the gorgeous palm trees. I hope Pixie turns upright soon. She has a ghost like quality in this photo!

I like the Father Damien mural :)
I saw Heliconias in Darwin, they grow well there with the humid weather.
Love Pixie'w photo, so sweet.

Love that upside down of Pixie but I think that Honolulu is still on the north side of the equator. Still a good try.
