Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away.
Barbara De Angelis
"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." Rumi
"A woman is like a teabag-only in hot water do you realize how strong she is." Eleanor Roosevelt
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Learn as if you were to live forever."
Mahatma Ghandi
"...We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. ... And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." Nelson Mandela
“Each of us has that right, that possibility, to invent ourselves daily. If a person does not invent herself, she will be invented. So, to be bodacious enough to invent ourselves is wise.” - Maya Angelou

Palm trees and blue skies, it doesn't get much better than that.
The skies are fantastic. So blue, and the clouds seem happy. I would be with you on the wind if I were enduring it, too. Our windy season is coming, and I'm sure I will be whining non-stop! (You weren't whining, but I will be!)
What a nice collage. I hope you enjoy any rain they might bring.
I really like the one on the lower left! Such dramatic skies!!
Great pics. Yeah for the rain. We're getting some up here in the San Fran Bay Area. Doesn't make for good pics, but we need it. Love your haiku too!
I heard about that rain, isn't it bringing some gray clouded skies to the normal endless days of blue. That can be a welcome relief, especially with the wet stuff.
These are great. I love the darker clouds with the touch of gold.
Such rich blue skies artistically etched with palm fronds! Very beautiful!
We've got bright skies over here but no palm trees and mostly snow all around. I love your warm pictures. Ahhhh!
Nice collage of clouds and palm trees. I also like the warmth I feel from your photos. It's cold here!
I think that I will agree with Lisa. I love your sky photos as well. What program do you use for your collages?! I just love them. :)

A little rain adds a textural beauty to the skies. Although your usual blue skies with a hint of offshore clouds are quite nice as well!
Nice, very nice, storyteller! :)
What a great collage. Such an array of blue. I love it. Very peaceful to look at. Hope you have a great weekend. Take care.
I've been hearing about the drought much more lately ('cos it'll probably affect the price of veggies for we easterners)--I like the look of the blue against the palm trees, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll stay gray even longer!
