Mono no aware
the pathos of things
impermanence shaping beauty
each moment adrift
fleeting yet full.
In the heart’s quiet,
all is passing
and all is precious.
Transient emotions
Reflections on water
here, then gone,
teaching us to notice
the hush before the song.

Wherever there is
a human being,
there is an
opportunity for
a Kindness.

Everything is okay.
These will be
very merry noodles.

I am thankful for
all of those who said
NO to me.
It's because of them
I'm doing it myself.

This is such a cool post! I love the Bon dance costumes and the noodle factories. Pixie looks like she's curled up like a noodle ready for the soup.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was in Oahu earlier this year I wanted a modest Hawaiian-print dress, but everything in the tourist shops was too revealing. I ended up going to a muumuu store.
ReplyDeletePixie is in dreamland.
