Two Sisters

A L O H A From Honolulu!


In times of turmoil and danger,
gratitude helps to steady
and ground us.
It brings us into presence, and our
full presence is perhaps
the best offering
we can make to our world.
Joanna Macy



All mistakes teach us something,
so there are, in truth, no mistakes. Nikki Giovanni, Poet



There are two sisters
In my house.
Anxiety and joy.
They do not fight or argue
Or otherwise annoy 

The truly amazing thing
Is how well they share
The space
So close,
Alike yet different
Each wearing my own face.
        Cloudia Charters



My reality check bounced!

Pixie & Cloudia

    Those same two sisters live here too. They don't argue precisely but they do challenge each other for dominance.

    Pixie wants to know if your reality check bounced with joy or anxiety? Which sister is overdrawn?

    You get so many rainbows, Cloudia. Unfortunately the one sister seems to be winning here. ;-)
