Better View

A L O H A  From

The present is
all we have
to live in.
Or to lose.
  Marcus Aurelius 







As soon as I stop wishing
for things to be different,
 I am met by the
beauty of what is.

The best of healers
is good cheer.
Pindar 




Smiles are
the soul's
party dresses.

Getting old is like
climbing a mountain;
you get a little 
out of breath,
but the view is 
much better!

There is something to be said about getting old, despite its challenges.

Ooooh, two Pixie's to see today! Even though cats don't smile, just looking into their great eyes brings a smile to me!

Cute Pixie! How old is Pixie?

Every day we don't read our names in the obits is a good one! So I tell my hospice clients...

Party dresses, Cloudia! ;-)

Pixie deserves a statue like that hound dog's. She is our favorite guru.

The older I get, the more I appreciate every little moment.

Precious photos of Pixie, Cloudia. Yes, each day is a gift; that's why it's called the present. Blessings!
