Confer That Pleasure

 A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U

When given the choice
between being right
and being kind,
choose kind.
Dr. Wayne Dyer


Remember
there's no such thing
as a small act of kindness.
Every act creates a ripple
with no logical end.
Scott Adams





You find yourself refreshed by
the presence of cheerful people.
Why not make an honest effort
to confer that pleasure
on others?
Lydia M. Child



Come, sit with me now.
We'll gaze at the falling sun
as it grazes this horizon for,
I want to talk about simple
nothings and silent stirrings,
and wild things with someone
who means everything.
Victoria Erickson

There is no worse poverty
than one that deprives
one of dignity... the effect
of a disposable culture
that considers the
human being as
a consumer good.
Pope Francis

I adore the kindness quotes and the photos you shared are stunning. I was most appreciative of the quote by Pope Francis and the accompanying photo which is perfect for T this Tuesday, dear Cloudia and Pixie.
