Morning Light and Shadows Waikiki

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Every light has its shadow,
and every shadow hath
a succeeding morning.
Nicolaus Copernicus


Lobby Pool
Morning hotel lobby Waikiki,
Tucked between mountains
and the sea
Relaxation rolls
when you arise there
Remembering vacation's
reprieve from care.


Somethings can only be
seen in the shadows.
Carlos Ruiz Zafon



Shadow Shou Symbol
It is only through shadows
that one comes to know the light. St. Catherine of Siena


 You cannot ask
the darkness to leave;
you must turn on the light. Sogyal Rinpoche

Pixie's bright eyes light up the darkness, but I think she is surprised by that Rollo tattoo. She is not sure if that is a creature of light or of darkness...

A little green for St Paddy's day. I haven't mentioned it either. Haven't even posted today.

Loved this post of so many lovely quotes and photos. Pixie is looking beautiful as ever. I will post a picture of Lakshmi, her "twin sister from another mother: :)

PS.
I am trying to turn on the light. Alas the light switch I once "knowed" has gone missing.

When I scrolled to the second picture I thought that was a big hotdog hanging from the ceiling.
