Good News

A L O H A From Honolulu!
 How can I claim
to understand another
when I am a 
mystery to myself?






Spathodea campanulata,
commonly known as the African tulip tree

Respond intelligently even 
to unintelligent treatment.
                Lao Tzu 



The lovely flowers embarrass me,
They make me regret
I am not a bee.
Emily Dickinson

Word are like bees–
some create honey and
others leave a sting.

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot. Michael Altshuler

    I saw the African tulip tree and thought I wonder if it grows in the north. Nope. Then I read it has been nominated as among 100 of the "World's Worst" invaders. And unfortunately, the flowers have a natural defense killing bees. And the wood is useless. Cut those bad boys down!

    Your first quote is so true as you cannot know or love another until you have learned to love yourself. I Love your bees. We need more bees as they are being killed off by mans misuse of insecticides. A sad truth. Love Pixie as always. Stay well, Claudia ...
