A L O H A From Honolulu!
The sun now shines
With golden grace,
Smiles upon
My upturned face.
Release the weight
That binds your soul,
Let go of shadows
Sing yourself whole.
Embrace the moment
Let love flow,
With every heartbeat
May your spirit grow.

You are a divine being.
You matter, you count.
You come from realms of
unimaginable power and light,
and you will return
to those realms.

You may feel emotionally
spent and physically worn down.
You might be second-guessing
yourself, or losing hope.
But I will tell you this:
The persistence you bring
to the effort is a worthy and
important thing in itself.
Chere Clark
Opinion is really the lowest
form of human knowledge.
It requires no accountability,
no understanding.
The highest form of knowledge
is Empathy, for it requires us to
suspend our egos and
live in another's world.
Bill Bullard
To be trusted
is a greater compliment
than being loved.

I love the Tolstoy quote and the quote about opinion and empathy. Pixie looks lovable in that pose, but can we trust her near the catnip jar?
I struggle to believe that I matter or count. I am empathic - which is a double edged sword. Not one I will let go of though.
Yup!
I love that mask very much!
Interesting note about opinion. I think I tend to agree unless it is the result of studying and pondering.
Beautiful images, I love the moon and the flowers and your sweet Pixie.
The Tolstoy quote is a favorite and your words are inspiring. Take care, have a great day!
...I wish you many magic moments.
A post to encourage us all, Cloudia. ;-)
I feel like Chere Clark was reading my mind today!
And I trust Pixie and you, too! Blessings for such inspiration here today.
You matter to me and your friends and family 🌺🫂
Thank you very much dear friends!
Beautiful flowers and scenes in your photos and a sweet kitty to love!
I like Chere Clark's quote. Beautiful shot of the moon and the flowers and Pixie looks wonderful.
Lovely post
Thank EACH of YOU Dear People!
I love your poem and the photos, especially the moon shot!
Great photos, great poems and quotes, and the moon, wow. I loved This Magic Moment when I was a kid. I had a 45 of it and played it over and over.
Your photograph of the moon was a magic moment. Nice job!
I always leave smiling, thank you my friend :)
Thank you my friend! Aloha! 🙏
Not much trust going around these days.
We cab always count on a beautiful rainbow from you.
A wonderful uplifting post this week, Claudia ... at a time when we all need some encouragement. And sweet Pixie ... she trusts implicitly in the love and the home you have given her. So, what is the little red dot in the lower, right corner of your moon shot?

The yellow hibiscus is such a delight.

I like the mask, a lot.
I really love your blog. This post is wonderful. The face for FFO is amazing and the quote is lovely. Thank you for joining FFO and have a lovely weekend.
I LOVE the quote by Tolstoy. It is so true. Thank you for linking up and have a great week ahead, Cloudia!
Your photos are always great, but where do you find your quotes? You always have some good ones. Hope it's a good weekend.
