Encourage people
in this challenging time
simply by being kind.
Remember how we
used to do it?
It was no big deal.
Now it's huge.
Fortunately,
we are up to it!
I could conquer the
world with one hand
as long as you`re
holding the other.

...sprites wearing acorn caps
and wielding glaives
the size of toothpicks battled
above a sea of tiger lilies.

Lilies bloom when
we laugh together.

I set out to find my peace
in the skies and the tulips,
in the howling of the winds,
in the rain under the shed
and it was right there
residing within me.

Long shadows drift
across warm cement,
the cup stands upright,
left behind.
Evening gathers
what daylight spent,
life feels forlorn
and yet
somehow kind.

Here's hoping for your peace and a miracle.
Pixie seems to be on the lookout for sprites wielding glaives the size of toothpicks. Thanks the uplifting words of whimsy and wisdom in today's post.
Soothing to browse through and thank you
You get poetry from a coffee cup.
Pixie is serene.
...and may there always be a cooling breeze.
Beautiful images Cloudia and great quotes and poem!
I love the flowers and Pixie!
Take care, have a great day! Have a wonderful week ahead.
I quickly passed pollen laden Easter Lilies in the store yesterday...not daring to inhale until well past. So beautiful, but us allergic folks are careful in their presence. Thanks, may all people breathing on this earth (including four legged) find kindness.
Kindness is a concept that sounds easy, but can be so hard to actually do.
Be kind and smile. Lessons from you, Cloudia. ;-)
Showing kindness to others is something I strive to do each day, Cloudia. Love that photo of Pixie!
Thank you so much friends here between us. I can tell you my mom passed less than a week ago. And my husband continues to decline with his dementia and other issues in care. I visit him everyday. I just feel that there is something authentic about our relationship. Our friendship and I'm doing okay, but I thought you deserved to know what's going on in my world right now. Fortunately, I am okay, processing a lot of grief. Feeling grateful for my life and my future and for all of you. Meeting together here is very important to me and I intend to continue publishing everyday. Thanks to each of you. Sincerely, I feel as if I know you and you touch my hearts and I wish each of you the very best. Aloha
Big healing hugs, Cloudia. You're carrying a lot of burdens right now.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches to beautiful Pixie. ♥
Sadly, kindness and respect have been forgotten. We think it is the lack of human interaction with all the online stuff and COVID, no one talks to other people, it is always texts or emails and it gives people less value. It really makes us sad.
You write the most beautiful poetry, Cloudia.
I'm looking for peace and kindness in our country right now. I'm glad more and more people are perhaps seeing the light.
Cloudia I couldn't find the post you intended for Nature Notes. It is posted as ( m/2026/03/dare-to-watch-clouds.html?m=0) and I scrolled but didn't see a Watch Clouds post.....Sorry..Michelle
To kindness, always.
I am so sorry for your loss. I feel for your grief. I am delighted you still visit your husband daily and find beauty all around you during your visits. I love your poem and Pixie's darling face.
I love the shadows from the cup and your beautiful poem you wrote to honor it. Thanks for all the photos and words of wisdom you shared with us for T this Tuesday, dear Cloudia (and Pixie, too).
One day I am going to walk along that path near Diamond Head :) To kindness, yes. Give Pixie a pat for me. And happy T day.
As the Twelfth Doctor said, Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind. Pixie is so majestic. Happy T Day
I would love to see whales and I enjoyed the video...I love jazz and blues...Michelle
Oh...I had no idea that you are suffering such a loss with your Mother and an ongoing loss with your husband..Sending warms hugs to you. I have online friends who I consider real friends one in South Africa I have been friends with online for over 30 years. They are real friends....Michelle
