True Turtle

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Your true colors
are beautiful
like a rainbow.
 Cyndi Lauper

Rainbows are made
of small raindrops...





...Happy lives are made
from acts of kindness.
Amit Ray



Service is a smile.
It is an acknowledging wave,
a reaching handshake,
a friendly wink,
and a warm hug.
It's these simple acts
that matter most,
because the greatest
service to a human soul
has always been the
kindness of recognition.
 Richelle E. Goodrich




Wise and gentle friend, Carrying the ages,
on your back Beloved symbol of hope,
our guide.
Turtle ancient voyager, Wandering the seas forever She has survived
the great extinctions. The ocean is her home.
Resting on the beach.


I don't like fame,
I prefer to have no profile.
But this is not
possible for me.
This is what I do, so
I just have to find a way
of being comfortable with it.
Caster Semenya
[And Pixie]

    Pixie might not like fame, but she would love to play with the wise old sea turtle. They would have a lot to talk about, especially rainbows.

    "She has survived the great extinctions."
    Let's hope they survive the one that's going on now.

    Lovely post, Cloudia. Love the Goodrich quote.
    I'm thinking of Jimmy Buffett this morning. I was actually wearing my Buffett t-shirt yesterday. Sad.

    Rainbows are fleeting — just like the beauty of the Hawaiian islands, which are so much threatened by modern human actions.

    Dear Cloudia,
    I find the sea turtle particularly touching today. It makes me think of the little turtle that we accompanied in Costa Rica on its way to the sea after hatching.
    Have a nice September weekend - and give Pixie some lovely pats from me
