Rule That Doesn’t Exist

  A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

 Life isn't perfect,
people aren't perfect,
but there are
moments that are.
  Amy Harmon



In A Nut Shell
To see a World 
in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven 
in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity 
in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
William Blake,
 
Auguries of Innocence




When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves. Viktor Frankl

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie





All people are exceptions to
a rule that doesn’t exist.
Fernando Pessoa

Blake’s lines remind us that the vastness of existence can be found in the smallest moments, if only we take the time to truly see.

Nice that William Blake quote but it reminds me also of a quote earlier from Roy Stevens about thinking knowing everything about nothing.

Sandi said...

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of man?

Pixies' shadow knows.

That first quote makes me wonder if it's the right mix of imperfection that makes things perfect? It's like those actors that are sort of comic book good looking so they aren't actually attractive? It's the imperfections that make a face appealing in a lot of ways....#AwwMondays

I really enjoyed this thoughtful collection of quotes, especially "All people are exceptions to a rule that doesn't exist" that's a brilliant way to look at individuality. And the William Blake lines always give me pause.
