Eerie Beauty of October

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Great leaders

invite us on a journey




When you see
a fork in the road
take it!
Yogi Berra







  
-There's a kind of eerie
beauty to your profile.
Yasunari Kawabata



A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit
and a violin; what else
does a person need
to be happy.
Einstein



To live an extraordinary life
you'll have to go through
adversity to become
an extraordinary person.
The key is to see your
challenges as opportunities.
Use them to get better,
not bitter. Remember,
the best is yet to come!
Jon Gordon

I am with Cicero. If you have a library and a garden you have everything you need. Well almost. Said garden and library should also have a cat.

Pixie doesn't agree with Einstein's list for happiness. She says it's missing catnip and lizard/duckling games of follow the leader. Cool pictures today!

Nice series again.
I saw a short docu on ALOHA yesterday!

Hello Cloudia,
I love the pretty geckos, they look like they could glow in the dark.
Cute captures of the ducks and your sweet Pixie.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.

Hello Cloudia :=)

Those lizards are beautiful, and the ducklings are cute, and Pixi is both beautiful and cute!
The mural is fun, and those white flowers delicate and pretty. I didn't know you lived on a boat for 20 years, that must have been awesome. My late husband wanted to buy one, when we were younger, but at the time he couldn't swim, so decided against buying one. It must be a wonderful lifestyle.
All the best

To be better...not bitter, that can be daunting for many! Love the colorful lizards!

Follow the lizard down the fork in the road.

Such lovely comments!

Yasunari Kawabata came to the UH East West Center when I was a student there. I was staying at Hale Kahawai dormitory (almost next door). Wow! Such a long time ago. I went to meet him. It was such a thrill to talk to him. I don't remember what we talked about but I remember him being very nice and kind.

Cloudia said...

That's amazing Kay! Thanks for sharing that with us

Mike said...

That's how Yogi wound up with so many forks.

Cloudia said...

No doubt!

Well - a Cat, obviously!

Seriously, though, the pictures are amazing. We especially like the lizard.
