Knowledge V Wisdom

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Hope is being able to see
that there is light despite
all of the darkness. Desmond Tutu





Knowledge is realizing that
the street is one way;
wisdom is looking in
both directions anyway. Albert Einstein







Heliconia Champneiana "Maya Gold"
Where did love begin?
What human being looked at
another and saw in their face
the forests and the sea?
Was there a day, exhausted
and weary, dragging home food,
arms cut and scarred, that you saw yellow flowers and,
not knowing
what you did, picked them
because I love you?
In the fossil record of
our existence, there is
no trace of love. Jeanette Winterson




A street that you have
never visited is a book
that you have never read! 
   Mehmet Murat ildan




There are only two kinds of faces: Sincere and insincere!
Mehmet Murat ildan

Hope is believing that there is (or will be) light, despite not being able to see it...

Albert's correct. I learned that years ago in downtown St. Louis which is mostly one-way streets.

Einstein knew to watch out for bicycles coming every which way.

Hi Cloudia. This is a lovely post. I really like the photo of the girls. Walking, faces poised to their destination. Their beautiful tanned skin. Thank you for joining Friday Face Off.

Pixie looks sincerely hopeful that you will succumb to her superior wisdom in that shot. Love the rainbow in the first picture and the shot of the plant growing on the roof.

Beautiful shots! They don't call it the rainbow state for nothing.

Very interesting quotations.

Well clearly Pixie has a sincere face. Love all of your quotes. They either teach us something new or remind us of something we had forgotten ... either way, we gain.
