Let's give it up for the sky!

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
- Rabindranath Tagore

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
- John Lubbock
Going around under an umbrella interferes with one's looking up at the sky.
- Jerzy Kosinsk

It was morning; through the high window I saw the pure, bright blue of the sky as it hovered cheerfully over the long roofs of the neighboring houses. It too seemed full of joy, as if it had special plans, and had put on its finest clothes for the occasion.
- Herman Hesse

Don't ask me for an explanation. I just want to show off my pretty sky pictures.

  2. I took that photo a few days ago because it reminded me of the sky in Miami. Of all the places I've been, Miami has the most beautiful skies. I'm sure Maui has similar skies, being tropical as well.

    p.s. Thanks for being my sole commenter!
