A L O H A From Honolulu!
Hope will never be silent.
Harvey Milk
A man who changed the world
through kindness and tenacity,
making friends not enemies.
Today's "activists" could learn
MUCH from his Wise Aloha
Fiery words quick and dark
Leave a wound that lingers and sparks.
Silent long breath, a moment to take,
Mends the bridge
before it breaks.

People often say, with pride, I'm not interested in politics. They might as well say, I'm not interested in my standard of living, my health, my job, my rights, my freedoms, my future or any future. If we mean to keep any control over our world and lives, we must be interested in politics.

Martha Gelhorn is right. Sadly.
ReplyDeleteHi to you and Friday Girl. I hope you both have a wonderful weekend.
Very wise words from Martha Gellhorn, and I expect I'll use them one day.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed reading you both. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteFriday Girl requires a nap.
ReplyDeleteNow if words could just be translated into action even then it's about what they mean.
ReplyDelete...I hope that she doesn't trip!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWise words, I agree with Martha Gellhorn's quote.
Friday Girl looks adorable as always.
Take care, have a great day and happy weekend.
Hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, Cloudia!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely keeping Harvey Milk's quote, thanks. Smiles and flowers in one's hair are great! Pats on the head to Friday's Girl, and hopes your weekend is just right!
ReplyDeleteWise words today, Cloudia. ;-)
ReplyDeleteKindness that won't quit -- that's a good way to be.
ReplyDeleteAnd every day is better with a little Fleetwood Mac. Thanks.
Love your photography and poetry!
ReplyDeleteThe 'fiery words' speak to me today.
ReplyDeleteIt's not easy to find a balance between fiery words and taking such a long breath that you miss your opportunity to speak.
ReplyDeleteWe so enjoyed lingering over these great comments today. I want to thank each of you very much for looking in. Aloha
ReplyDeleteI love the pic of the woman wearing the Tiare flower in her hair. It reminds me of my favorite airline Air Tahiti Nui.
ReplyDeleteI love those island smiles!
ReplyDeleteGlad you two!!
ReplyDeleteThe smile made me smile.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen that original version of "Go Your Own Way". They certainly improved on it over the years.
ReplyDeletePink flowers with raindrops on them, sign me up!!
