Calm Whatsoever

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Life is really simple, 
but we insist on 
making it complicated.
              Confucius


The positive energy
and love we give
to others, heals
our own wounds. Angie Karan



Hands joined like leaves
in sunlit air,
No task to chase,
no weight to bear.
Fingers meet,
a gentle nest,
Where worries sleep,
and hopes are blessed.

Green whispers paint
the tranquil scene,
A symphony of wind
and leaves unseen.
Heartbeats slow
to nature's drum,
Composure found,
where shadows come.



Never be in a hurry; 
do everything quietly 
and in a calm spirit. 
Do not lose your inner peace 
for anything whatsoever, 
even if your whole 
world seems upset.
            Saint Francis de Sales




If my world were to
cave in tomorrow, I would look back
on all the pleasures, excitements and
worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough
to have had... It will have been
enough. Audrey Hepburn

  2. This is lovely, Cloudia. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. We are up to our ears in termite aftermath. I haven't been able to get on the computer because of everything we're dealing with. I have a very nice vertigo therapist and she's given me exercises to do. They make me dizzy but it's to help my brain, ears, eyes and whatever become stronger. I hope you're doing OK too.

  16. I struggle with all the bad news and it would be more healthy to remain quiet inside..... Never be in a hurry;
    do everything quietly
    and in a calm spirit.
    Do not lose your inner peace
    for anything whatsoever,
    even if your whole
    world seems upset.
