Willing Again - Just Breathe


  A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

A meaningful life is 
not always a mountain 
to climb; it may be 
a path you are willing 
to walk again at dawn.



The white-rumped shama
was deliberately introduced to
the Hawaiian Archipelago in 1931

When I started
counting my blessings,
my whole life
turned around.
Willie Nelson



Now Showing in
Glorious Technicolor!





Be led by your curiosity, 
and keep busy by doing 
things that fill you with 
meaning and happiness.
     Héctor García & Francesc Miralles

We Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

💠



Hold my hand 
when I am old.
Remind me who I am
by being who we are.
I love you—
and cherish every visit.

I wondered if that was your hands in the photo :-)

The holding hands photo is very powerful, it reminded me of my grandmother who was in her 90s when I was a small kid. Thanks, Cloudia.
