A L O H A From Honolulu!
Thank you, sun,
for waking me,
With light and hope
setting shadows free.
A grateful heart,
I offer thee,
For this bright gift
O happily!
To free us from the
expectations of others,
to give us back to ourselves-
-there lies the great, singular
power of self-respect.
Joan Didion
No amount of regret
changes the past,
no amount of anxiety
changes the future, but
any amount of gratitude
changes the present.
Ann Voskamp
The trick to forgetting
the big picture is to
look at everything
close-up.

That is an amazing rainbow on your header. I need to pay attention to them more on our side of the island.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wisdom and the beauty.
ReplyDeleteThanks friends
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Thanks for the ride and the little wisdom. Have a good Sunday!
ReplyDelete"is to look at everything close-up"
ReplyDeleteBut be careful not to get lost down the rabbit hole.
I love the quote about how gratitude changes the present. Pixie looks adorable close up, as does the mural. I like the shadow shot, too... a palm tree person.
ReplyDeleteThese are life changing words for me
