Simply Generously Deeply Kindly

A L O H A From Honolulu!

A grain of knowledge
with the dawning of the day
is a breakfast of the mind.
 Flann O'Brien



Tree Expert Supervisors 
Everyone's a critic,
especially of the thing
they don't understand.
   Banksy



Dappled sunlight paints the reef,
a vibrant, underwater scene,
A stripe of blue, a flash of yellow,
Through coral castles, fins propel - O.







Live a good, honorable life.
Then when you get older
and think back, you'll
enjoy it a second time.
Live simply. Love generously.
Care deeply. Speak kindly.
 JoAnn Donohue

    That coconut tree climber is amazing. I don't like heights.

  2. WHAT THE... Is that guy using climbing hooks (on his shoes) to climb live wood? You never use hooks on live wood!

  3. Love the birds critiquing the man on the tree and Pixie reminiscing on her life well-lived. Great quotes today, too. Happy Lunar New Year. Wishing you peace, health, and prosperity in the Year of the Dragon (and lots of lion dances...)

  15. Hello Cloudia :=)

    A colourful post as usual that always brightens my day. The sky looks on fire, and the Bird of Paradise plant, and underwater fish are beautiful images. The image of the man climbing the tree looks like a dangerous activity and then I looked at the bottom of the photo and saw the birds looking up and wondered what they made of it, and it made me smile.:=) Adorable Pixi photo,and the Joann Donohue quote is lovely. Thank you Cloudia
    All the best
