If The Ocean


  A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

If the ocean can 
calm itself so can you. 
We are both salt water 
mixed with air.
    Nayyirah Waheed





May you live 
everyday of your life.
             Jonathan Swift






Never be in a hurry; 

do everything quietly 
and in a calm spirit. 
Do not lose your inner peace 
for anything whatsoever, 
even if your whole 
world seems upset.
            Saint Francis de Sales







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. Suyasha Subedi

Lovely quotes and photos today. I am now thinking in water, salt and air, and whatever else might have been floating around in me.

I am trying to live my life every day with things that embrace or inspire me and not just work or chores, which if you read my post today is spot on to this. Thank you also for all of your photos on Instagram it's one of my go-to places for things that make me feel wonderful. Aloha to you and Pixie too.

I love the colourful chalk mural on the sidewalk -- both the clown and that delightful mushroom!
