The Quality Of Love Determines

A L O H A From Honolulu!


At heart we may yearn for distant shores, But inertia won't release the oars. To break that spell is a decision we make, our growth resides in the choice to awake.
Cloudia




Let's go to the beach
in this fun sunny car!
The surfboards are
almost longer
than the Fiat!





Your mind is a garden,
your thoughts are the seeds.
You can grow flowers,
or you can grow weeds.
William Wordsworth


Convivial

As day surrenders,
to skies ablaze,
Our faces glow
in golden haze.

Embers paint
the western sky,
We gather 'round
our heartfelt tie.

Laughter spills
like golden wine, This feast for friends
such sweet design. It's tapestries
of joy we weave, In moments when
we know, not believe.
For time suspended
holds us fast In this perfection
when day has passed.

In mellowing light
all peace descends,
Worries banished
friendship transcends.

This changing hour
as stars begin to gleam,
We share our cherished
joyful dream.
Cloudia




The quality of our love
determines the quality
of our wisdom and
together these determine
our quality as a person.
Emmanuel Swedenborg

Me encanta la costa, pero vivo en una ciudad del interior. Siempre que puedo, procuro hacer alguna que otra escapada.
Feliz domingo.

I love the, "Let's go to the beach" with that yellow car. Have a nice day today.

The mural was a favorite of mine over many years. When the building was redeveloped, attempts were considered to save the mural but it was too integral to the structure of the building and they claim it would have been prohibitively expensive to try and keep it. Thank you for enjoying it with me! Bless each of you. Lol

Is Kwan Yin the same as the Green Tara? Just curious. Very nice mural.
