Hearts Evergreen

 A L O H A  From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U
Things seen at night
fill me with delight.
They have a "not quite"
that somehow 
shows the truth.
        Cloudia Charters






No one is useless
 in this world who 
lightens the burdens 
of another.
 Charles Dickens




"Critics"

 Don’t be distracted 
by criticism. Remember, 
the only taste of success 
some people have is 
when they take a 
bite out of you.
  Zig Ziglar




When criticized, 
consider the source.
Mom Says






 Angel's glow   
   Wisdom's flow   
   Cosmic whole   
   In each soul   

  Silent truth  
  Gentle proof  
  Unseen present  
   Evergreen.   
        Cloudia Charters  




A quotation is a handy
thing to have about,
saving one the trouble
of thinking for oneself,
always a laborious business.
A.A. Milne + Pixie

hat's a stunning moon photo.
In the north of Australia there are cocoanut trees, and it looks like the man scaling the palm is going to drop cocoanuts, as they do here. They are called nutters. In the past, no doubt as happened in your state, fit lads used to scale the tree trunks to remove the cocoanuts.

What a moon!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

What a great moon shot and those amazing stormy clouds. Too bad someone had to leave their trash in that lovely bush, but it made a fantastic entry for T this Tuesday, dear Cloudia.

Wishing you a very Happy T Day! Hugs, Jo x

Mike said...

I can't tell for sure but it looks like the guy climbing the tree is using hooks that dig into the tree. You're not supposed to use hooks on live wood, only dead wood.

Lisca said...

Wow! That moon!
Love the quotations, especially the ones about criticism. Is that last one Winnie the Pooh?
Happy belated T-Day,
Lisca

Cloudia said...

Yes, Milne put those words in Winnie the Pooh's mouth 😺

Your drink pictures and pictures of discarded items are always so interesting. Lovely quotes and great pictures. The kitty wins best picture once again (IMHO). Super post and happy T-day. Hugz
