We Generate A Lovely Glow

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Be the one to
stand out in the crowd,
Be the one to go where
they’d rather not. Beautiful things don’t beg
for a chance to glow They throw out their lights and
just shine out loud! Chinonye J. Chidolue



Hibiscus kokio

A star never lets anything
dull its sparkle,
not even darkness.

 Matshona Dhliwayo





If a beachhead of cooperation may
push back the jungle of suspicion,
let both sides join in creating
a new endeavor, not a new balance
of power, but a new world of law,
where the strong are just and the
weak secure and the peace preserved.
President John F. Kennedy
Inaugural Address (1961)





Asystasia gangetica
commonly called:
Chinese violet,
coromandel,
creeping foxglove



Have a spirit so beautiful
that when people see you
all they notice is your glow. Germany Kent

Pixie is definitely glowing with love, and that purple care with matching surfboard is glowing in another funky little way!

Love that fun little car. And how I wish that more people were ready to act on President Kennedy's wise words.

Over the years, people have remarked that I always have a smile and that's what they notice. We can all be more beautiful if we smile. Love your quotes and precious Pixie!

Aloha to you and Pixie too, I adore that photo of her so present and upfront look! My teenage years I had a brief time where purple and lavender were my go to colors, so I would have loved that car! Take good care of you and enjoy your 4th of July celebrations!
