“Above the mountains
the Geese turn into the light again
Painting their black silhouettes on an open sky
Sometimes everything has to be inscribed across the heavens
So you can find the one line already written inside you.
Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small bright and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart.
Sometimes with the bones of the black sticks left when the fire has gone out
someone has written something new in the ashes of your life.
You are not leaving, you are arriving”. ~ by David Whyte from The House of Belonging

When they are stitched together, I find the results dazzling and I am happy you enjoy my art.

Mahalo nui loa, thank you so much for your invitation. I have joined your lovely new group.
The Absolute ~ Aloha Ke Akua Na Kahu ~ Ke Ahi La’a ~ Sacred Fire
It is my most visited image, currently with 6712 Views and 2 Sales. Of all my work in my portfolio, The Absolute is by far the most popular and certainly has taken on a life of it’s own :))) It pleases me so much that everyone loves it as much as I do. It is one of my personal favourites.
