Invigilator

 A L O H A  From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

All is well right Here 
Right Now 
Tasks wait in the sunlight  
For me to breathe,  
Smile,  
Then begin.  
When Joy leads,  
Gratitude follows...  



...Worthwhile work
Is not hurried,  
Yet nothing needed 
Is missed.  
Each moment
Is enough.
      Cloudia Charters



We're all traveling through time together, every day of our lives. All we can do is do our best to relish this remarkable ride. Richard Curtis

and you will become
a green tree with always
new fruit, always deeper
journeys into love. Rumi



My Best Friend FOR LIFE!
Sometimes
you will do good and
never get an
acknowledgement
for it. Do not let that
dishearten you; the world is
a better place with
your good deeds. Gift Gugu Mona

I'm not back to blogging yet. I just returned from that 3 week trip to Japan and have to go off on another trip to Chicago. I'll be back in June. Hopefully.

This is such a beautiful post, Cloudia.

Even if unrecognised, your good deeds matter—keep doing good, the world needs it.

Is Pixie your invigilator? Great post. I love the vulture and the gecko.

I was very excited to see you look in and can't wait to hear about your trip. Have a safe time in Chicago. Aloha!

The guy pulling along the palm frond looks so unrushed. I see this in many countries, while here it all seems so rushed and 'efficient'.
