Crepuscular Night Ramble 夏威夷檀香山日晚

" There is only one day left,
always starting over:
it is given to us at dawn
and taken away from us 
at dusk.  "

                                        Jean-Paul Sartre





















 “Older people make more use 
of higher-order reasoning schemes
 that emphasize the need for
multiple perspectives,
allow for compromise,
and recognize the limits
of knowledge.” 

  Richard E. Nisbett, &  Igor Grossmannon
cognitive psychologists, 
University of Michigan









" Everything that we see
is a shadow cast
by that
which we 
do not 
see. "

Martin Luther King Jr












“Whom 

but a dusk misfeatured messenger, 

No other than the angel

of this life,

Whose care is lest men see 

too much

at once.”

 

 Robert Browning








         
     




"It takes an intelligent ear to listen to Jazz." - Art Blakey
“这需要一个智能耳朵爵士乐。 - 艺术Blakey



 "One of the things I like
about jazz, 
kid,
is I don't know 
what's going to happen next.
 Do you?" 

Bix Beiderbecke
 




" Jazz washes away
the dust 
of every day life. "

    Art Blakey

I love blogging
like a 
 Moving Finger:

" The Moving Finger writes;
 and, having writ,
 Moves on:
 nor all your Piety
 nor Wit
 Shall lure it back 
to cancel half a Line,
 Nor all your Tears 
wash out a Word of it. "




 Omar Khayyam

Walking 
is where my ideas come from;
 
Snapping pictures I see,
 
bubbling up
 ideas to share
with YOU.

Today, 
I lost the little case
I keep my camera in.
 
It dawned on me:

"This is a part of life,
small problems
are part of life,
and therefore:
Quite 
WONDERFUL !


None of us has a
contract
guaranteeing us
another day,
another
breath.
So why waste time,
and hamper
Joy
by crying over
spilled
camera cases?


What makes blogging so great?

Y  O  U !

Thanks for being my friend.
Warmly, cloudia 



My fave Cab Calloway
said what I feel
about this blog party
of ours 
pretty well:

 "My audience was my life. 
What I did
and how I did it, 
was all for my audience."
