Go Laughing

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Western cultures believe
we must be alive for a purpose,
 to work, to make money.
Some indigenous cultures believe
we're alive just as nature is alive:
to be here, to be beautiful & strange.
we don't need to achieve anything
to be valid in our humanness.

We must learn to live
together as brothers or
perish together as fools.
  Martin Luther King Jr.




There's a thin line between
confidence and arrogance.
It's called humility.
   Aagam Shah



There is more to knowing
than just being correct.
Taoist Proverb




I know not all
that may be coming, but
be it what it will, I'll go to it laughing.

Herman Melville

  4. Hello Cloudia :=)
    Your bog must be the one that features more rainbows than any other. A rainbow for me symbolises hope and good fortune so thank you Claudia, and thank you for the beautiful flowers, and photos of your constant companion Pixie.
    All the best
    Sonjia.

    The only thing we need to do to be a successful human is reproduce.
