Wonder Eyes

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Stuff your eyes with wonder,
 live as if you'd drop dead
 in ten seconds. 
See the world. 
Ray Bradbury



If you paint in your mind
 a picture of bright
 and happy expectations, 
you put yourself 
into a condition 
conducive to your goal.
 Norman Vincent Peale



As soon as I stop wishing
for things to be different,
 I am met by the beauty 
of what is.
 Katrina Kenison



Your future is only as bright
 as your mind is open. 
      Rich Wilkins



Creativity
 is the residue
 of time wasted.
 Albert Einstein

The best thing you can do is sleep on it again.

Aloha! 🙏

Pixie looks very pensive today.

Kay of Musings: I’m in Illinois right now and wanting to take a nap like Pixie. I’m still trying to get used to the difference in temperature and humidity. My son-in-law and daughter always have the air conditioning on in the house so it’s all so different from Hawaii.

I am always glad to see your skies, and Pixie too!

Martha Jane Orlando said...

That first photo is absolutely breathtaking! Sleep tight, sweet Pixie. :)

Happy Friday to you and Pixie. I hope I don't die in 10 seconds (all I could think of when I read that quote), but living like it could happen is absolutely a necessity.

William Kendall said...

Magnificent skies in that first shot.

DVArtist said...

Such a beautiful post. The photos are stellar. I like that smiley face too. Thank you for joining FFO and have a great weekend.

Really ... is Einstein saying that creativity is a waste of time? Well, Pixie won't stand for that. She takes creative naps :) Otherwise, your pictures and bits of wisdom are awesome, as usual. Hope you are enjoying the uptick in our politics. Funny, our news never covers Hawaii in covering our elections. You do vote, right? Just kidding ...
