Beautiful People

Aloha From Honolulu!

It suddenly struck me
 that that tiny pea,
pretty and blue, 
was the Earth.
 I put up my thumb 
and shut one eye, 
and my thumb blotted out
 the planet Earth. 
I didn't feel like a giant. 
I felt very, very small. 
     Neil Armstrong 



Resistance isn't just
Legal fights,
It's an inner flame
Through dreadful nights.

So cherish this power
Guard it with care,
Wellspring of strength,
Always there.

Don't waste your time 
On needless debate,
Preserve your power
For the right time and date.
    Cloudia Charters



I yam what I yam
and dats all what I yam.
    Popeye "The Sailor Man"





What lies behind us
and what lies before us
are tiny matters
compared to what
lies within us.
 Ralph Waldo Emerson





If you feel pain, you're alive.
If you feel other people's pain,
you're a human being.
Tolstoy

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie




My Dear Friend Anissa is
a beautiful artist and mother.
Her jewelry is CRAVABLE!
I own two of her necklaces.
She uses the best stones
and hand knots each one-
Kindly have a look!

My favorite was the Neil Armstrong quote. We are small, indeed. Hello, beautiful Pixie. Happy T Day

Lisca said...

Lovely quotes today. I like all of them. I enjoyed the Melanie song. I remember it very well. My sister was a Melanie fan and I had to listen to all her songs being played over and over again. lol
Happy T-Day,
Lisca

Thank you for joining me for T Tuesday this week. Some of you are aware I damaged my left arm and finally made a sling for it. Last Saturday I removed the sling because my arm felt better. Monday afternoon, I was headed to the basement when my sleeve caught the end of the banister and I took a tumble down all 14 steps. Yes, I once again landed on my left shoulder. It's a good thing I didn't throw the sling away, because it is quite handy. However, I am still in pain, but refuse to go to the ER because they will tell me to rest, as I've been doing and would probably issue a prescription I couldn't afford. Thank you for understanding why I made this a universal copy and paste entry and really, really appreciate you for sharing your T post this week.

LOVE the moon shot and Popeye. Great for T this week.
