Choice Power

 A L O H A  From

H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U


There is only one way
to happiness
and that is to cease
worrying about things
which are beyond
our power.
Epictetus








To me, photography is 
the simultaneous recognition, 
in a fraction of a second, 
of the significance of an event 
as well as of a precise 
organization of forms 
that give that event 
its proper expression.
Henri Cartier-Bresson 





The way we choose
to see the world 
creates the
world we see. 
             Barry Neil Kaufman







Half of our mistakes in life
 arises from feeling
 where we ought to
 think,
and thinking 
where we ought to 
feel 
John Churton Collins





Every year of my life I grow more convinced that it is wisest and best
to fix our attention on the beautiful and good
and dwell as little as possible on the dark and the base. Richard Cecil

all of us wished
we possessed a tail
we could wag.

Beautiful photos, especially of the moon. I also love the quotes. I increasingly find myself not watching national news any longer. It is the same chaos every day.
