Pure And Glowing

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Feelings are always purest
and most glowing in the hour of meeting and of farewell. Jean Paul Richter





When shall all men's good
Be each man's rule,
And universal peace
Lie like a shaft of light
Across the land,
And like a lane of beams
Athwart the sea
 Alfred, Lord Tennyson





The heart has its reasons,
which reason does not know.
Blaise Pascal





 Thousands have lived without love,
not one without water. 
    W. H. Auden 



If Smart water is so smart
then how did it get bottled?


I said HYDRATE!

[NOT Hydrant!]


It is the least privileged, 
not the most, who excel 
in appreciating the 
smallest of offerings.
          Mary Pipher




You are 87% water;
the other 13% keeps
you from drowning.
P. E. Morris

Gorgeous sky shot at the top today. I love all the pictures of fire hydrants. Pixie is wondering why the fire hydrant got a lei, but she didn't. I suggest a catnip lei for her.

Thank you for our daily dose of beauty and wise my friend. Aloha!

Fire hydrants. The color of the body tells what entity owns it. The color of the top tells what flow rate is available from it. The color of the connection caps tells what size the connector is. If someone paints a hydrant, they cover up all this information.

I love that someone draped a lei over one of those hydrants! Aloha from Arizona (pardner)!
