A L O H A From Honolulu!
The deepest sin
against the human mind is to
believe things without evidence
Thomas H Huxley,
also attributed to Aldous Huxley *
We ourselves feel
that what we are doing
is just a drop in the ocean.
But the ocean would be less
because of that missing drop.
Mother Teresa
Today is a good day to boss up
and change your situation.
Germany Kent
And then my heart
with pleasure fills,
And dances
with the daffodils.
William Wordsworth
[ When daffodils
are not in view
a garden rose
will also do!
Pixie ]
This worldly life is like a shadow.
If you try to catch it, you
will never be able to do so.
If you turn your back towards it,
it has no choice but to follow you.
Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya
Side-by-side
Our bond can't be bought
Understanding souls
Share a truth dearly sought.
These the irreplaceable
Those we hold ever tight
True friends
0ur second solace
Creatures of the light.

*Aldous Huxley was a grandson of the prominent biologist Thomas Henry Huxley and was the third child of the biographer and man of letters Leonard Huxley; his brothers included physiologist Andrew Fielding Huxley and biologist Julian Huxley.
These are awesome quotes, Cloudia. That first one jumped out at me, especially at these political times. You are a "true friend."
ReplyDeleteRainbow Connection by the Cazimero Brothers is one of my all time favorites.
ReplyDeleteLove (and need to remember) the Mother Theresa quote. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteJolly, Ladies ❤️
ReplyDeleteSuch an enlightenment word of "missing drop".
ReplyDelete...hurrah for the Brothers Cazimero.
ReplyDeletePixie craves belly rubs.
ReplyDeleteThe trouble is that we are prone to believe without evidence and to be very adamant about said beliefs.
ReplyDeleteI love that shadow shot, Cloudia. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGreat again. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThanks friends 🐱

ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, Cloudia. Scritches to Pixie. ♥
Sweet pups with the baby :)
ReplyDeleteWe may seem like small drops in the ocean, but God knows that each life is an opportunity to spread the Good News of Jesus.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Cloudia, and thanks for your poem, too. :)
I like the duck in the pool. And the evidence quote has been stored away for later use! Cheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
ReplyDeleteGreat seeing you
