A L O H A From Honolulu!

Worry is profoundly ungrateful.
What a waste of all the treasures
around and within us,
of the time we have!
Do not let the times we live in
dictate to us. Let's go
our own bright way
and spread it around
as we are able.
Anyone who isn't embarrassed
of who they were last year
probably isn't learning enough.
Alain de Botton
Crown of velvet, petals curled,
Unfurl the secrets of our world,
The daily round, a passing show,
Dissolves within your vibrant glow.
I thank you, bloom,
for lessons taught,
Of beauty born from
battles fought.
For showing the love
in simple things,
You lift my heart
on unseen wings.
May I be like you,
steadfast soul,
Unfurl my petals,
make me whole.
To find within each
morning's embrace,
Ecstatic vision,
face to face.
Our habitual thoughts
shape our perceptions.
Swedenborg
So practice good
thought hygiene
as Pixie does!

Wonderful photography and wise words.
Good thought hygiene is a work in progress here. Always.
Beautiful photos. I love the cute doggie with the Santa hat and your sweet Pixie.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
True that habitual thoughts shape our thinking
What a sweet photo of Pixie.
I love the first wise quote and the poem - and Pixie of course 😍
...poor dog!
Aloha, dear Cloudia!
Hihi, Pixie is a wonderful thought hygienist :-DD
The tree in the last photo is a true invitation to meditate under it. I particularly like the first statement today: “Worry is profoundly ungrateful.” You offered a great collection again!
All the best and have a nice Advent season,
Traude

The tall buildings on the skyline present a nice contrast to the usual quiet nature photos and pet photos.

A fine way to start the morning, Cloudia. ;-)
Great photos!
Have a blessed day!
I love that last shot with the tree and Pixie with her squeaky clean patterns of thought.
What beautiful music! And I know worry is a waste of time but it's hard not to worry. Merry Christmas sweet lady!
Love the music. And your poetry.
Once again, Cloudia, I truly loved your poem. The photos are excellent, too!
Blessings!
Thank you my dear friends
Beautiful sayings, and the music I really love it Cloudia.
A wonderful view and a lovely poem to begin your day and morning walk.
"who isn't embarrassed"
My embarrassment goes back 60 years.
Pixie looks contemplative.
Dear Pixie & Cloudia,
What a treasure to read and view this beautiful post. I wish you much happiness this holiday season with all my love. Take care, Yvonne.
