A L O H A From Honolulu!
The most intense conflicts,
if overcome, leave behind
a sense of security and calm
that is not easily disturbed.
It is just these intense conflicts
and their conflagration
which are
needed to produce
valuable and lasting results.
Carl Jung
In quiet moments,
thoughts take flight,
With you, my friend,
they find their light.
In solitude,
I’ve often roamed,
Yet in our words,
I feel at home.
Cloudia Charters
Even the darkest night
will end and
the sun will rise.
Victor Hugo
As one grows older
one should grow more expert
at finding beauty in
unexpected places, in deserts
and even in towns, in
ordinary human faces and
among wild weeds.

I like the Cloudia Charters quote best today.
ReplyDeleteThe Cloudia quote is wonderful. I love the shot of the gorgeous sky and Pixie with the ducks. The quote about rudeness is so true.
ReplyDeleteGreat pastels in the first pic today.
ReplyDeleteI can’t recall seeing Pixie outside before although I probably have.
ReplyDeleteQuiet moments are wonderful moments as they really let the brain relax and flow with thoughts and ideas. Mom does most of her good thinking on our walks in the very early morning when no one else is out and about and we spend an hour or more walking, enjoying the quiet and the world.
ReplyDeleteAs always a joy to see.
ReplyDeleteHello Cloudia,
ReplyDeleteLove all your images, your sky shots are stunning.
You do have a way with words, beautiful quote.
Pixie is enjoying the ducks.
Take care, have a happy day!
Have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't figure out what the dark structure was off shore in the first photo. It's obviously man made, but a strange shape, so I guess not a boat.
ReplyDeleteLots to think about!
ReplyDeleteLove that shot of the flower, Cloudia! And the Kinks! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love the shot of Pixie watching the birds. Adorable.
