Like a Sunbeam

A L O H A From Honolulu!

I don't want to get to 
the end of my life and 
find that I lived just 
the length of it. 
I want to have lived 
the width of it as well.
             Diane Ackerman


Alone with myself
The trees bend to caress me
The shade hugs my heart
         Candy Polgar 



Choice: Climb or Sit
To escape from the world
means that one's mind is
not concerned with the
opinions of the world.
Dōgen




They're gone.
I let them chase me.
I led them like a sunbeam
and vanished like a shadow.

With unfailing kindness,
your life always presents
what you need to learn.
 The next teacher is going
to pop right up.

  7. This is a cool post. I love Pixie trying to catch a sunbeam and becoming ethereal herself. I also love the little dog popping up to teach us how to enjoy life and live it to the fullest.

  11. You always have some great quotes Cloudia. I like the one about living the width as well as the length of life. And those effigies are really interesting. I like how they allow you to see who is there, but in another way they could be kind of creepy too. Have a great weekend and Friday. hugs-Erika
