ৡ Not An Option

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

Waiting
Is an illusion
Beauty is
Always accessible
The decision to experience joy
Is within your reach
This moment, right now,
Is perfect for transformation
Stop postponing happiness
Your lovely time
Begins now, Precisely
Where you are.
Pixie



There is more room 
in a broken heart. 
Carly Simon 






Gratitude can transform 
common days into thanksgivings, 
turn routine jobs into joy, 
and change ordinary 
opportunities into blessings.
William Arthur Ward






Strelitzia nicolai

Those who don't know 
how to suffer are 
the worst off. 
There are times 
when the only correct 
thing we can do is to 
bear out troubles 
until a better day.
 Deng Ming-Dao






Unfold your own myth.
Be empty of worrying.
Rumi 




Panic is not an option.
Cool head main thing.
Keeping Calm Carry On.
Breathe deep and
Find it within.

We Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

Pixie is in guru mode today. She is dispensing wisdom to us fans! I love the pictures, especially that lighted boat on the dark waters. I saw the quote by Deng Ming-Dao and thought for a moment that you were quoting Moo Deng the Thai pygmy hippo. I thought Pixie had a new acolyte in bringing joy and wisdom to the world.
