A L O H A From Honolulu!
When you rise in the morning,
give thanks for the light, for
your life, for your strength.
Chief Tecumseh
Each morning
when I open my eyes
I say to myself:
I, not events, have the power
to make me happy
or unhappy today.
Groucho Marx
The child was born in autumn,
Of wind and sun, and rain;
Brought forth in
Of wind and sun, and rain;
Brought forth in
storm and darkness,
Yet of a gentle strain.
Yet of a gentle strain.
Clowns they say are sad.
yet making the world laugh,
giving their mirth away,
being silly on our behalf.
Dumpster Darlings
Look closer
Beyond the surface
And you will see a world
Full of beauty.
A painting around the back
Is a throwaway gift
Reminder that art
Can be found in the
most unexpected places.
It's the simple things
in your life that make
up the bulk of it.
The mundane is where we live,
and we end up missing most of it.
We find it again in the silence
and in the attention
of everyday life.

Clowns make me sad for them.
And yes, there is always beauty in this world. For which I am very, very grateful.
The simple things that make my life delightful include some cats/kittens too. May I welcome you to that simple world for a moment?

Love the vignettes of Hawaiian life, including the clowns. Pixie and the Aussiedoodle are the best!
Thanks sincerely friends 🌺
Beautiful sky, Pixie looks so comfy in the hammock?
I love the Aussiedoodle, adorable.
Wonderful photos. Take care, have a great day and happy new week!
Surely a post like this every day requires heavy thinking but when read as light as a feather. Wonderful work again every time. Thanks for this.
You find the most inspirational words to go with your uplifting photos. A great way to start the day. Thank you my friend :)
Chief Tecumseh's quote is absolutely right. Thank you for all these wonderful quotes and photos. Good day to Pixie and you.
Love the quotes and the shots to go with them.
Such a cute dog. I would have guessed Portuguese Water Dog. There are so many nice crosses with poodles.
Wonderful positive sentiments. I needed that.
Clowns really mean a lot to me.
What a cute hound!
"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself:" Not yet.
I always enjoy Hawaiian life, including the clowns. So fun. That is a very lovely and colorful mural.
And of course, Pixie and the Aussiedoodle are fantastic.
Lovely quotes and photos, Claudia. Pixie is adorable and looks somewhat like our Lakshmi.
Thank you for sharing. Take care.
Pixie and the Aussiedoodle look very cute :)
The mural is very colourful, thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia.
Beautiful Hawaii improves even more amazingly through your lens.
