Paradise With Peas

A L O H A From Honolulu!

To live is so startling
it leaves little time
for anything else.
    Emily Dickinson





Mandevilla sanderi, Brazilian jasmine


We are not unhappy today
because of the complexities of life.
We are unhappy because we miss
its underlying simplicities.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross and David Kessler


Life is like walking through
Paradise with peas
in your shoes.
Charles Edward Jerningham





The most important thing
is to enjoy your life -
- to be happy -
- it's all that matters.
   Audrey Hepburn

 I will never lose
the love for the arriving,
but I'm born to leave.

  4. Peas in your shoes would not be fun, even if they were mushy peas. 😊

  6. I have been wondering if those peas are hard and raw or squishy and cooked. I think Pixie is wondering this, too. She looks a little shocked at the idea of peas between her toe beans... Love the sky shots and the shot of the little house, too.
