No negativity can exist when children are splashing happily in a puddle.

The world is at peace during those precious moments.

We can become children again ..

Happy Children ...

joyfully splashing in the puddle ...

together ...

from Kauai to Paris ... and all places between

Aloha et Au revoir,

Bill

As we get older, our puddles just get bigger. I'm ready to go splash around in the Pacific.

So good to hear from you. A lovely fun idea for a Monday morning...I think I too will stomp through the very next puddle I see! Best wishes from Southwest Virginia.

Had lots of rain last night here in Phoenix, which is so rare that I savor the time when not only I see a puddle but I can jump in it.

The delight of the young children is contagious! It adds a bright spot to everyone's day who is lucky enough to see it. Also, the orchids are magnificent. I'd like to be a small bug and crawl up inside of one of the blossoms and spend the day admiring its form and vivid colors. Mille mercis! P.S. One Easter morning following a downpour, I saw a young family getting out of their car. The little boy dressed in white shoes and his Easter "finery" headed straight for the closest puddle. His mother didn't seem upset by the fun he was having. Maybe they had been to an early church service.....or maybe she had learned that that was what little boys do best!

Aloha Cynthia .. I'm with you on crawling inside an orchid, and this Man Child is certainly with that little boy you viewed happily playing in the puddle. Pure innocence and joy .. every human being has it yet so few retain it as "life" envelopes us.

Mahalo et Merci, Bill

I am still smiling after loudly giggling while watching those two kidlets jumping in the puddle! What fun. Thank you, Bill, for these lovely blogs.

Bill,
I was looking for very old pictures from my mother's time and came across pictures of my children in the backyard, splashing in their plastic play pool. The pool was positioned at the bottom of a slide, so they had some bigger splashes. Children are the same everywhere, aren't they? We need to learn from them.
I loved the photo with the moon in view through the palm tree. I've been capturing images for a Google photo group and one of the themes was moon/sun. Of course, the weather had other ideas with no moon or sun very visible that week. Finally, when it was fairly clear outside, I asked Jim to hold a box of MOON pies in the sky. They liked it ! The Moon Pie company even shared it on their page. Have a good day and slip slide, but don't fall in those puddles.

Debbie .. How creative .. Moon Pies! I love it! I'm lucky to be surrounded by creative souls .. Thank you, Debbie, for being one of them!

Mahalo et Merci, Bill

Fred .. Thank you so much for this comment. The flowers never cease to amaze in their perfection (interesting to note that few flowers are more beautiful than Spring Tulips arriving after the snow in Lander). I am very grateful my writing is pleasing to you as well .. thank you, Fred, for your kind words.

Mahalo et Merci,
Bill
