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.

You have 2 minutes to live,
but every time you breathe
it restarts the clock
I'm all for the honorable life like you, Cloudia. Let's enjoy this life starting with this weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat coconut tree climber is amazing. I don't like heights.
Live simply and love gently
ReplyDeleteWHAT THE... Is that guy using climbing hooks (on his shoes) to climb live wood? You never use hooks on live wood!
ReplyDeleteLove 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...)

ReplyDeleteHello Cloudia :=)
ReplyDeleteA 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
