Arshagra / ..... “It is not the critic who counts, nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.” / ~ Theodore Roosevelt ..... “When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.” / ~ Kahlil Gibran ..... “You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.” / ~ Mark Twain ..... “Start by doing what’s necessary, then do what’s possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”~ St. Francis of Assisi ..... “I am only one, but still I am one.

This is a composite image of the beautiful sea cliffs of Maui’s North Shore near Honomanu Bay taken from Ke’anae Peninsula. You may see the road to heavenly Hana at the top of the cliffs. Maui Hawai’i Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved / My images do not belong to the public domain Beauty XXV “But the restless say, “We have heard her shouting among the mountains, And with her cries came the sound of hooves, and the beating of wings and the roaring of lions.” At night the watchmen of the city say, “Beauty shall rise with the dawn from the east.” And at noontide the toilers and the wayfarers say, “we have seen her leaning over the earth from the windows of the sunset.” In winter say the snow-bound, “She shall come with the spring leaping upon the hills.” And in the summer heat the reapers say, “We have seen her dancing with the autumn leaves, and we saw a drift of snow in her hair.” All these things have you said of beauty. Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied, And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy. It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth, But rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted. It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear, But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears. It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw, But rather a garden forever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight. People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face. But you are life and you are the veil. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. But you are eternity and you are the mirror.” ~ Khalil Gibran Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / Lava

All rights reserved October 2008 / Age 53 / I am an identical twin, my sister’s name is Karon. Nâu wale nô. No ko’u aloha iâ ‘oe wale nô, He makana nâu. Aloha e Malama pono, E pili mau nâ pômaika`i me `oe. E ku`u ipo Iakopa, Me ko`u aloha Kalona Ana Ke’anae Maui Hawaii Song of the Soul “In the depth of my soul there is A wordless song / ~ a song that lives In the seed of my heart. / It refuses to melt with ink on Parchment; / it engulfs my affection In a transparent cloak and flows, / But not upon my lips. / How can I sigh it? / I fear it may Mingle with earthly ether; / To whom shall I sing it? / It dwells In the house of my soul, in fear of Harsh ears. / When I look into my inner eyes / I see the shadow of its shadow; / When I touch my fingertips / I feel its vibrations. / The deeds of my hands heed its Presence as a lake must reflect The glittering stars; / my tears Reveal it, as bright drops of dew / Reveal the secret of a withering rose. / It is a song composed by contemplation, / And published by silence, / And shunned by clamour, / And folded by truth, / And repeated by dreams, / And understood by love, / And hidden by awakening, / And sung by the soul. It is the song of Love; / What Cain or Esau could sing it? / It is more fragrant than jasmine; / What voice could enslave it? / It is heartbound, as a virgin’s secret; / What string could quiver it? / Who dares unite the roar of the sea And the singing of the nightingale? / Who dares compare the shrieking tempest To the sigh of an infant? / Who dares speak aloud the words Intended for the heart to speak? / What human dares sing in voice The song of God?” ~ Khalil Gibran Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / This is a composite of two images, one my husband Jacob took of me at the MACC, the Maui Arts and Cultural Centre in Kahului layered over a photograph I took of the beautiful coastline of Ke’anae Peninsula, Maui Hawai’i, converted to a Sepia toning with adjustments in Colour Balance and Digitally Smoothed.

It is one of the saddest events for any parent when a child dies. I have numerous people asking me for paintings while attuned to my Spirit Guides. These are sad moments, but the paintings bring comfort to many people. Gilly died at a very young age. He was a typical young boy with very old fashioned ideals. He liked adventures with pirates and built ships which could whisk him away to glorious places, not yet discovered. As a young child I often saw Gilly’s Spirit, but didn’t know him. Today, after all these years he has made himself know to me in this painting. Both his parents have now passed over and I dedicated this painting to his memory…..... I add the words of Khalil Gibran – Lebanese American artist, poet and writer. (1883 -1931) The songs of the waves and the hymns of the streams / Are scattered, and the voices of the throngs reduced to silence; / And I can hear naught but the music of Eternity / In exact harmony with the spirit’s desires. / I am cloaked in full whiteness; / I am in comfort; I am in peace…..... Understanding Gilly…......... Music – Mighty Men of Old – by Paul Collier. August 27th 2009

Hello RedBubble :) It is my first work in here and I am glad the honour goes to Khalil Gibran and the himalayan blue poppy (meconopsis). I shot this amazing flower while strolling in the Edinburgh Botanic Garden one late June afternoon and from the first sight it became one of my favourite shots ever.

Beauty It is not the image you would see nor the / song you would hear, / But rather an image you see / though you close your eyes / and a song you hear though / you shut your ears. / It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, / nor a wing attached to a claw, / but rather a garden forever in flight. ~ Kahlil Gibran
