Perfect Hat Perfect Hero

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Calling bigotry an opinion is
like calling arsenic a flavour. 
Jack Cameron




Manu O Ku- Pacific White Tern

Kindness always wins.

If what I say
resonates with you,
it is merely because we
are both branches
on the same tree.
W. B. Yeats



Golden Shower Tree Fantasy

God favors those
who delight in being.
Criss Jami



My experience is 
that the teachers 
we need most are 
the people we're living 
with right now.
           Byron Katie

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie






Title  Match:


It can be difficult to choose
a hat to suit our personality.
When you meet someone
who has successfully found it,
you Just Know!

We are all so much more alike than we are different, Cloudia. I wish people could remember that! Blessings!

What a wonderful person Ms McCarty was! We need more people like her, Cloudia. ;-)

Today's post is so much fun. I love the quotes, especially the ones about bigotry and kindness. That shot of the Buddha statue with the "perfect hat" is awesome, as is the picture of Pixie in "perfect teacher" mode.

It seems there are even more TV stars hanging around Hawaii. I'm thinking that tern looks like the dove from Touched By An Angel! Linda in Kansas

Hello
Beautiful photos of your sweet Pixie and the birds.
I would love to see the White Tern. Great capture of the Night Heron.

Each of you lifts me up! For which I am truly grateful. Bless each one of you! Pixie's agreeing ❤️

I'm currently actually shopping for a hat, for summer sun. My old straw hat has seen many seasons, and needs a replacement.
