Time Is

 A L O H A From Honolulu!
True wisdom lies in gathering the
precious things
out of
each day as
it goes by.
E. S. Bouton



When one door closes,
another opens;
but we often
look so long and
so regretfully
upon the closed
door that we do
not see the one
that has opened
for us.
  Alexander Graham Bell





Time is a circus,
always packing up
and moving away.
Ben Hecht



It was a night so beautiful that
your soul seemed hardly able to
bear the prison
of the body.
W. Somerset Maugham





Be true, be kind,
be strong of heart. Do all you can,
play well your part. Let spirit guide
and wisdom mend. Then what you keep
is what you spend.
Cloudia Charters

Thank you for posting Sukiyaki. I haven't heard it for years and I so enjoyed hearing it again. It has special memories for me.

If I may say on the quote of Alexander Bell. It depends on the space you are in.

Bom dia, Cloudia
Lindas citações, viver com sabedoria é um verdadeiro presente de Deus, abraços.

I loved the photo of the child who's mother (?) has hands on hips to declare the child must do (or not do) something indeed!

"What you keep is what you spend." Let us treasure most what we give to others. Blessings, Cloudia!
