Hope Whispers Soft

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Honoring Kamehameha the Great in Honolulu

Flowers don’t tell,
they show.
 Stephanie Skeem




Savor with me
the lushness of
 a lingering sleep...
and last night’s
dream.
           Sanober Khan



What you don't see backstage
is what really controls the show.
Sarah Sutton
[Not a conspiracy theory]





Hope whispers soft
on the gentle breeze,
Uplifting hearts,
and souls to ease.
So greet the day
with head held high,
Let sunshine fill
your inner sky.
   Cloudia Charters





The only thing we never get enough of is love, and the only thing we never give enough of is love.
 Henry Miller

The shots today are so interesting. I enjoyed seeing how they get the flowers up on that huge statue. I also liked the backstage shot... "Does anyone have a safety pin? or a needle and thread?" Pixie is magnificent as always, and that boy at the end is adorable. Thanks for spreading joy and love.

I always have hope because of the Lord, and we all certainly have to show more love toward others.
Blessings, Cloudia!

I like the backstage quote. It’s so true right now when you look at the Olympics and consider all of the training work that went on backstage, as it were.

Two great rainbows. It would be fun to see how big that first one would be if we could see the whole thing.
