A L O H A From Honolulu!
Too many people miss
the silver lining because
they're expecting gold.
Maurice Sendak
Honolulu Back Streets
Grieving the people you have loved is part and parcel of growing old and it takes a lot of will power and keeping a constant check on your thoughts to stay positive.
Nicky Melville
Friends are as companions
on a journey, who ought to
aid each other
to persevere in the road
to a happier life.
Pythagoras
Shell Ginger Embraced by Red Ti
Things that were
hard to bear are
sweet to remember.
Seneca
Yet in the heart a flicker gleams,
Sparks of hope the distant dream.
At last from depths of darkest night,
Ariseth dawn with healing light.
Let us unite with hearts aflame,
To mend the world and heal its pain.
With kindness sown, with empathy’s grace
We’ll build together a
Much better place.

Lovely to see the area of your country.
They are good quotes too.
Kindness and empathy are essentials.
💞
As we get older it is so hard to deal with loss...
very interesting post Cloudia!
Cute puppy dog!
Yes, to more kindness and empathy.
Take care, have a great week.
...thanks for the tune.
Pixie is not looking svelte in that photo, but still very pretty. Nice photo.
Pixie is keeping an eye on the wee doggie.
I'm always inspired by the many different rainbow photos you share here, Cloudia. Yes, I will be voting.
Blessings!
Oh my goodness, I had to enlarge the photo of Honolulu back streets to see it wasn't a collage, but actually different roofs and terrain. Loved the Sendak quote, and Pythagoras and your own poem, thanks.
Thanks Friends
Love your poem under the shot of the magnificent Pixie. I also love the real gold in the skies. No silver linings there, just solid gold in the heavens.
Sweet post, Cloudia. You know that I love the back streets. ;-)
Da back streets have mountains! Yep, I voted, correctly, with Kansas early voting days. It's nice to go vote when it's not crowded and in the middle of the day and in the middle of the week. Kansas already had a prez primary. Our August 6 vote is for senators and other regional folks. And our blasted super conservative state actually voted to keep abortion rights. A nice Democrat female gov in the middle of it all! Make Pixie's vote count! Get her registered cuz I think she's old enough, eh? Linda in Kansas
Lovely skyline.
God bless.
You always show us a new view of Hawaii. I wish I could visit there again.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Your poems are wonderful. Thank you.
Beautiful captures. Loved the 1st quote! Aloha 🙏
As long as the people are still in your heart they are not gone. I grieve my parents a lot...
Amazing sky views, rainbow, Cute Puppy, Loved the Mural work. Loved to Pixie :)
Thanks a lot for the post. Have a nice week ahead.
Great photos and I like the sweet mural.
I've seen a few rainbows the last couple of weeks.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia.
