Use Your Problems

A L O H A From Honolulu!


And while I stood there
I saw more than I can tell,
and I understood more
than I saw; for I was
seeing in a sacred manner
the shapes of things
in the spirit, and the
shape of all shapes as
they must live together
like one being.
   Black Elk




If you want to be confident,
follow your curiosity
more than your fear.
A child learns to walk
not by focusing on their
fear of falling down, but
rather their curiosity in
learning to stand up.

My favorite outdoor activity
is looking for shade. 





 

Use your own problems
to remember that
others have problems too.

    Thanks for sharing the treasures that your curiosity has found. Love the shot of Pixie looking for ducks; she will leave the shade to you.

    But then when we get old we start falling down again. It's no fun.

    It's true. People pray for summer and immediately seek shade from the sun!

    Lovely, all of them :) I think I would strike the same pose as Pixie. It has been a while since we saw any ducks.

    Your sunlight and clouds is glorious as is your "favorite activity" picture ... seems there is a little animal hiding behind that flower. And yes, always looking for shade on a hot day. Pixie's biggest problem would seem to be the fence ... or maybe the fence is keeping her from her biggest problem as a duck can be quite aggressive when protecting itself. But Pixie is never a problem for me ... she is adorable. And your hat ... you should save it for next week as "Hats" is the TAD prompt :) Happy Spring, Claudia ...
