A L O H A From Honolulu!
Sunlight pours
Her golden streams,
Warming whispers
Of happy dreams
Birdsong fills
the air with glee,
Every worry
seems to flee. -
- Helping hands
reach out with care,
Kindness blooming everywhere.
Laughter rings
That joyful sound,
Peace and plenty
all around. -
- Simple pleasures
clear and bright,
Filling hearts
with pure delight!

The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love, whether we call it friendship or family or romance, is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other's light. Gentle work. Steadfast work. Life-saving work in those moments when life and shame and sorrow occlude our own light from our view, but there is still a clear-eyed loving person to beam it back. In our best moments, we are that person for another.

That twinkle bright,
My purrfect friend
You furry delight.
Head a-tilt
Your curious pose,
Our friendship is
A sweet smelling rose.

Thank you.
Grateful as I am for the friendship of Batty and Odie it isn't always sweet smelling. Odie in particular farts with happiness.
...to attend college, a bunch of bottles are necessary.
Pixie is purrfect indeed.
Let everything twinkle with joy and good deeds, surely that must matter a lot.
The second pic is pretty interesting.
Congrats to your nephew! Loved the first photo, then paused for a bit at the second. Mmm, some fun sun and shadow work there. Yes, Baldwin's quote does say what it's all about.
I am surprised that James Baldwyn is capable of saying something so deep like that
Baldwin's quote hot home for me, Cloudia. I always enjoy your uplifting words and shots. Hello to Pixie.
Congratulations to your nephew! That's quite an accomplishment.
Jolly Friends thanks 💞
I love the James Baldwin quote and Pixie all atilt. Congrats to your nephew!! Bottles 4 College sounds like a great idea.
Congrats to your nephew!!! I know you must be so proud, Cloudia, and so you should be. Giving thanks for another day to show others the kindness and generous love of the Lord.
You have the most uplifting blogs posts.
I like the kitchen with sun streaming in! Good quotes.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
What a totally amazing young man. I can see why you'd be so proud of him. I wish he had a collection station on our side of the island too.
Lovely seeing each of you today! It wouldn't be the same party without you
Interesting concept with bottles4college, but it made me wonder. Glass bottles recycled bring €0,08 here in Germany, plastic €0,25 - since many, many years, every grocery takes them - is that not the case in Hawaii?
If not - thumbs up to your nephew! We all should recycle (I buy soft drinks in those for my Hubby, but drink water from the tap).
Good on your nephew! Great initiative!
Congratulations to your nephew, a remarkable young man.
The 2 puppies are cute :)
Nice and colourful mural, Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia.
Loved your post, Awesome pics, Congratulations to your nephew :)
Greetings
