A L O H A From Honolulu!
It's the love of the people.
That's what it is. Without the people
I can't do it. You know, I believe that
to heal people, you need to learn how
to love them. The more you give them
love the greater they become.

Be in the moment.
Stop thinking about the future
or the past, about what may or
may not happen, and put away
your phone. If a child in your lap
asks about the best part of your day,
say, “This is.”

Election Heebee Jeebies
Hope for the best
prepare for the worst.
Daily blessed, if
Sometimes feeling cursed.
In the unknown,
Potential is sown.
Among the shadows
Light is grown.
Yes let us hope
And let us dream
For even in chaos
There's beauty it seems.

*The phrase "heebie-jeebies" originated in 1923 in the comic strip Barney Google by American cartoonist Billy DeBeck. The phrase is a nonsense word that describes a feeling of anxiety, apprehension, or nervousness.

This is a totally awesome post. I love the pictures, especially the mural and the orchids with the shadows. Pixie looks like she is in the moment, no heebie jeebies there. The Louie Armstrong video was amazing; it reminded me of when I was little and my grandfather would dance the Charleston for us. He used to dance in Charleston contests when he was a young man, and I think he won, too. That song and a dance like the Charleston will definitely shake off the heebie jeebies and make you feel happy and hopeful, even if you don't get to Pixie's level of total Zen ;)
The mural is stunning. I doubt I could ever pass it by with looking at it.
That mural is so colourful!
That mural is great. Even here your forthcoming election is giving me the heebyjeebies.
We had a cat that we sometimes called Barney Google, or at least Sue did, for I was and still am not very familiar with that comic strip.
Cool art!
Love it that the mural has the red painted curbs! I must stare at the two plumerias on the ground: just what is that crumbled seaweed to make the other flowers and palm on the ground. Hmmm. I'm praying lots of quiet people are voting correctly. Pixie is so calm. Linda in Kansas
...fabulous mural, mahalo.
Incredible mural, Cloudia. ;-)
Love the colorful mural!
Beautiful flowers!
Pixie is always a favorite.
Take care, have a great day and a happy new week!
Hope for the best
prepare for the worst.
Absolutely!
Having a child on our lap should ever be the best part of our day. I sure wish my grandchildren lived closer to us! Blessings, Cloudia!
Queen Liliuokalani was an inspiring leader even though she didn’t get her way with governing. Nice images. Do you know whose is the other face?
Beautiful photos and a lovely mural!
Aloha my friend, a beautiful post as always. You and Pixie have a great week!
I echo your thoughts on the upcoming election. I have had those Heebie Jeebies but living in hope.
Pixie looks wise.
A beautiful mural dedicated to a remarkable queen. I've read about her.
Lovely mural #MuralMonday
I believe it is William Charles Lunalilo, a Kamehameha through his mother, won the vote, becoming the first Hawaiian monarch to be elected by the legislature serving as king for a short time
Thanks friends!
Wow very colourful mural. I have the heebie jeebies and it's not my election, but it will affect the rest of the world for sure! Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia
