is a silent prayer
which will 
change your life.

need not bathe 
to make itself white. 
Neither need you 
do anything 
but be yourself.

Love that gecko climbing on the window. I gather from the blurry buildings in the background that it has climbed your skyscraper like it's a mountain. Pixie doesn't seem worried about the gecko, so I assume that it is an experienced building climber.

Aww, I love gecko. You probably see quite a lot of them. I remember being in Thailand and hearing their faint clicking noise.

Wherever we are, may we take time to appreciate the beauty of the day. The gecko is cute, Cloudia!

I love the Gecko on the window, and that critter.

Good morning Cloudia. That first quote is so true. Every positive thought
is a silent prayer which will change your life. keeping positive in this day and age can be challenging but it is doable. Thank you and have a lovely day.

The sliver of moon in the first photo looks like a big grin.

Kay said...

I shall appreciate the garden I now have and hope for true liberty in our country again soon. Have a fabulous week, Cloudia.

Michelle said...

Yes, we should all appreciate our own garden. Hard sometimes. Be well, Cloudia.

Mike said...

We're trying to keep it that way Benjamin. Really, we are.
