To Play Renew

A L O H A  From

 I think there's 
a little child 
in all of us 
and we all to often 
forget to let the 
child out to play.
   Donna A. Favors 









There they stand, 
the innumerable stars, 
shining in order 
like a living hymn, 
written in light.
N.P. Willis





Love is flower like;
Friendship is like
a sheltering tree.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge



Inside myself is a place
where I live all alone,
and that's where
I renew my springs
that never dry up.
Pearl S. Buck

  5. I don't know is there is still a little child within me. Maybe a youngish sort of man though. 👴

  7. Aloha Cloudia, not sure how you know but most often your quotes follow what's going on in my world! Being a child at heart is key, and it works for all, and silence is something to cherish, and for me to remember sometimes silence is the best way. Enjoy your warmth, I'm excited to hear how one of my co-workers enjoyed your lovely world as she visited there this last week with family that recently obtained a timeshare! Hugs to you and Pixie too!

  8. A friend (85 years young) asks herself each night when going to sleep, did I have a joyous moment today? I'm trying to be more like her. Already I did something this morning and said that was joy...and now I've forgotten it!

  9. I sometimes lose that child within but must look for her more, Cloudia. ;-)

  11. We should never become so old that we forget how to play. Have a blessed Sunday, Cloudia!

  12. Sometimes my inner child is allowed to come out and play. Sometimes she is acting like a two-year old brat and needs to stay inside.

  14. “ I think there's
    a little child
    in all of us
    and we all to often
    forget to let the
    child out to play.”— there is a lot in this idea. It’s not only about play, but also about wonder in the world.

  20. I love the rainbow on the top, Pixie in the middle, and a preview of the upcoming Chinese New Year (Snake Year) in the mural at the end. Wednesday is a day of new beginnings :)

  21. Such a lovely, thought-provoking post! It's so true that we often forget the joy of play, even as adults. Letting that inner child out can bring so much freedom and happiness. And the quote about the stars is beautiful—reminds us of the wonder and order in the universe. A perfect way to reflect on the simple joys of life!

    I invite you to read my new blog post: melodyjacob.com. Have a lovely week ahead.
