If you want loyalty, 

get one dog. 

If you want chaos, 

get two. 

If you want a sitcom, 

get three!

Have a spirit so beautiful

that when people see you all they notice is your glow. Germany Kent

is just common sense,

and vital thing you can

possibly do is take

a complete rest.

Everyone smiles

 In hard times,
people don't want
to be told to look
on the bright side.
They want to know
you're on their side.

To know someone who

thinks & feels with us,

and who, though distant,

is close to us in spirit,

this makes the earth for us

an inhabited garden. Goethe

Live your life
while you have it.
Life is a splendid gift.
There is nothing
small in it.

Sometimes the most

important thing in

a whole day is the

rest we take

between two

deep breaths.

No matter how many 

mistakes you have made, 

how slow the progress, 

you are still way ahead

isn’t trying. 

So keep going!

Gratitude is one of the most

powerful human emotions.

Once expressed, it changes

attitude, brightens outlook,

and broadens our perspective.

Germany Kent

When I use the camera, I often feel like I know part of the people or places I come in contact with. Christophe Agou

I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains. Anne Frank

Under a garden light’s Gentle beam, They cluster softly, Lost in their dreams.

At day's end When the cool dusk falls, Night ducks gather By the willow walls. Reeds whisper endearments To the drifting breeze, Fireflies dance Among those willow trees. One feathered friend with a sleepy quack, Glides through shadows Then circles back. While the night ducks murmur By their silvery streams, Cradled in darkness Woven with dreams. Ducks at night In a hush so deep, Turn the pond Into a cradle of sleep. Cloudia Charters

Negative people need 

drama like oxygen. 

Stay positive, it'll 

take their breath away.

Single Star Evening Star

A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U

Even a single star 
Can light up the evening sky.
A single star reminds us: 
Hope can shine alone.

Sometimes, one star 
Is all you need
To guide you home.

In the super-vast sky, 
A single star 
Can make  your
Universe less lonely.
Cloudia Charters

Asclepias curassavica,

commonly called tropical milkweed,

bloodflower, cotton bush, Mexican butterfly weed, scarlet milkweed, and wild ipecacuanha, among other names. It is valued as a host and nectar source for butterflies, especially monarchs.

A gift comes to you 

through no action 

of your own, free,

 having moved toward you 

without your beckoning. 

It is not a reward; 

you cannot earn it, 

or call it to you, or 

even deserve it. And 

yet it appears. Your 

only role is to be open-eyed 

and present. Gifts exist 

in a realm of humility 

and mystery—as with 

random acts of kindness, 

we do not know their source.
Robin Wall Kimmerer

Beneath the waves, where kelp sways slow, A love story bubbles, don't you know? Lobster lad, eyes so bright, This lovely lass his crimson delight. Their dance a waltz or slow ballet, Under the ocean where current and sunlight play. Briney whispers, a secret vow, Two armored hearts allow somehow Love's embracing oceanic sweep, Happy lobster love to hold and to keep! Their silent vow, a heartfelt click, Two lobster souls, forever linked. A love untold, yet understood, Two armored souls in together-hood. Salty sweet, this love they share, Lobster's vow crustacean prayer.
