Secret To Fabulous

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The real secret to a
fabulous life is to
live imperfectly
with great delight.
Leigh Standley




Indian Hawthorne

For in the small, the mundane lies,
A hidden strength, in soft disguise.
The quiet moments, cherished, true,
Renew the spirit, see it through.
So take the time, let worries fade,
In these small joys,
peace will pervade.
Cloudia



The sunlight's kiss
upon the skin,
A golden warmth
where joy can win.
Children's laughter,
clear and bright,
Breaks through the darkness,
pierces night.
Cloudia



The storm's last breath
has slipped away,
Leaving the world
to twilight's gentle sway.
Waves reflect the
sun's fading gleam,
Under peach chiffon skies
where clouds
like islands dream.
  Cloudia




With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry his own weight, this is a frightening prospect. Eleanor Roosevelt
