Living Inside Your Hope

A L O H A From Honolulu!
You can transfigure negativity
by turning it toward the
light of your soul.
John O'Donohue



Now and then it’s good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy. Guillaume Apollinaire



Keep going. Your hardest times
often lead to the greatest
moments of your life.
Keep going.
     Henry Ward Beecher 




What hurts you, blesses you.
Darkness is your candle.
    Rumi




Challenges make you discover
things about yourself that
you never really knew.
   Cicely Tyson

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

The very least you can do
in your life is figure out
what you hope for. And
the most you can do is
live inside that hope.
Not admire it from a distance
but live right in it,
under its roof.
 Barbara Kingsolver

    I like that quote about how we need to stop pursuing happiness and just be happy. Pixie is our guru for that one, I think.

    I'm smiling at the second quote. Sometimes we get so busy trying to accomplish goals for our future happiness that we forget the now! (guilty!)
