Closer Than You Think

A L O H A From Honolulu!
One joy scatters
a hundred griefs.
Chinese proverb



Blue Ginger
With a little seed of
imagination you can
grow a field of hope. African Proverb



Your face is cracked
Like a cup dropped on the floor
It's not perfect
But your visage I adore.
Light shines through
your wrinkles.
It makes you so beautiful!
Unique, like no one else
I don't mind your broken places.
In fact, I love you more!
Even though we're not perfect
We are full of love and lore
So don't ever be ashamed
Of your true face
The face that I adore.



Face That I Adore  

You are much closer

than you think to

creating a life you adore.

I always see your posts and think I should take more nature pics.
I never really do because the only time I think of it is when I see your posts.
Thanks for sharing the beauty of your surroundings.
(I also come for the inspiring quotes.)
