The Water And The Sky

 A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

The sky and the water
Are mirrors of each other.
One reflects infinity,
The other possibility. Sky meets the water
At the horizon like
Our dreams meet reality
Clouds drift across the sky
Ripples dance on water;
Both remind us:
Change is the only constant.
Water and sky hold the
Promise of new beginnings
And the wisdom
Of endless journeys.
Water teaches us to flow
Sky teaches us to soar
Together, they show us
The art of balance.
Cloudia Charters


Even the opposite side
has an opposite side. Traditional Japanese wisdom He who knows only
his own side of the case
knows little of that.
J. S. Mill



Poets utter great 
and wise things 
which they do not 
themselves understand. 
      Plato



The wisdom of the ages 
lives not in what we own, 
but in how we live and 
how we love, 
in how we mend 
what has been torn, 
and how we cherish 
what remains.
Allan N. Schwartz, PhD
