Just Keep It Simple Right Now

A L O H A From Honolulu!

So many things are unimportant.
You’re wise when you focus
on the few that truly are.
Maxime Lagacé





We all experience 
different weather
though sharing. 
the same sky.









No one can stop you
from being honest
or straightforward.
       Marcus Aurelius









Forgiveness does not
change the past, but
enlarges the future. 

When your past calls,
don't answer.
it has nothing
new to say.




You will continue to suffer
if you have an emotional
reaction to everything.
True power is sitting back
and observing things
True power is restraint.
Breathe and
allow it to pass.

Look Closer Life Continues

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Sometimes,
what you're looking for
is already there.
Aretha Franklin





The winding road slants
downward many a time;
Yet each descent is
higher than the last.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox





There is nothing like the thrill
of walking through the jungle
looking for a tiger -











- and knowing they could be
watching you already.
Ashlan Gorse Cousteau











One hopes this lady 
is finding her fallen blossoms 
for a special lei.
A Recovery, or return home, 
come to mind. A new
grade, a new teacher.
Or maybe just because
it is Saturday and the sun 
is peaking over
the Ko`olau mountains
here on Oahu.

Life Continues...













The sky is an infinite movie to me. 
I never get tired of looking at 
what's happening up there. 
    K. D. Lang














In looking back, I see
nothing to regret and
little to correct.
    John C. Calhoun



 ԾԾԾԾԾԾԾԹ 


We're all keeping our distance,
and enjoying the broader spaces.
Sometimes, overlooking these
rewards for good spotting.
Often spotting better
vistas within.

Love You,
         Cloudia  &  Pixie

Wings are not only for birds; 
they are also for minds.

every flower reminds me 
what a blessing and 
privilege it is 
just to be alive.

but the ripples of the
