Independent of Circumstances

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If you tend to a flower,
it will bloom,
no matter how many
weeds surround it. Matshona Dhliwayo



Even the palm trees are blooming
it fills me with so much hope.
The birds, the dogs, and people
all ride the rising slope.


Spider:
Critics do not determine
how beautifully
a flower blooms.
  Matshona Dhliwayo



Spring is here and
my old joy blooms
in the world. Steve Scafidi



Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities
have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely
and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with
your old nonsense. Emerson

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

Pixie is wondering if the gecko below her is old or new nonsense. Lovely and inspiring post today. That spider creeping up to the giant (to it) flower is an incredible shot!

Cloudia said...

Thanks so much for sharing of yourselves. It means a lot.

"forget them as soon as you can."
That's not how my brain works. I hold onto failures as long as I can whether I want to or not.
