BE

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Try to be the rainbow
in somebody's day.
   Dr. Maya Angelou



With blossoms ablaze,
a riot of hue, They paint our landscape,
vibrant and new.
No thought for decorum
just joyful display, vivid technicolor clash
chases winter away. So let's take a cue
from this bold, floral glee, Embrace vibrant colors,
and learn to just be.
Cloudia


Life calls to life,
to shake off sleep,
Our deeper magic
rises. It leaps!

Embrace the light,
let colors sing, May joy take root,
reborn this Spring.

Dare show your colors
Allow your spirits to dance free, Bloom forth, dear friend,
and simply
Breathe
Just breathe
and be.
Cloudia









The most important decision
you make is to be
in a good mood.
Voltaire

...someone not so famous said "Be your Best" or something like that.

Pixie sees duckies.

Cloudia said...

I shot that pink tree several years ago in Northern California. I'm not sure what kind it is. But I'm sure that I adore each of these comments! Thank you friends Aloha.

Aloha Cloudia and Pixie too, your post today has not only put me in a good mood (best idea and quote ever) but to venture out and seek all those little moments waiting to be gathered up! Inspiring photos make for interesting takes and shares! Our posts make us hungry for adventure for all. Hugs to you both.

Thanks for being the rainbow with a riot of colors brightening our day. Is that the expression Pixie wears when she's in a good mood or when she's contemplating duck for dinner?
