Well, who says that if we can’t go to the exotic Island of Hawaii, that we can’t bring Hawaii to the desert and possibly have a good Luau while at it 🙂
Aloha!

Wordless Wednesday
Bougainvillea shade – A Click A Day.
I wonder how much cover from the sun that the Bougainvillea shade offers to these two sitting under it?
It’s a blazing furnace out here.

Mirrored Images…
The mirror does have a way of distorting images, so it’s important to make peace with it especially when you are looking at yourself. Remember that the mirror of your mind is by far more important than that of others because their views might be distorted due to the specks in their eyes 😉
The dragonfly lady – A click a day.
![PicsArt_08-30-08.33.01[1]](https://acookingpotandtwistedtales.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/picsart_08-30-08-33-011.jpg)
She strolled past me, a better part of her visible body covered in tattoos. I caught sight of the Dragonfly on her back and giving in to my curiousity, I  walked up to her, said hello, complimented her dragonfly and engaged her in a brief conversation.
Her body art serves as a cover for scars from injuries sustained in a car accident. She asked if I thought they were too much and I said no, that I could imagine the tattoos were prettier to look at than the keloids.
She smiled, stood still and obliged me with a photo 🙂
I did a little research on the dragonfly and found this information:
In almost every part of the World, the Dragonfly symbolizes change. Change in the perspective of self-realization. The kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life.
I may never come across the Dragonfly lady again, but I’ll remember the warmth in her eyes and the pleasure received from the conversation.

Monday scenery: Great photos that make you want to wander and see things 🙂
Aerial antics: A hilarious recount on an aerial yoga attempt. I would like to give this a try, that’s if the hammock or string or whatever does not collapse under my hefty portion 😉
Small steps up mountains:Â All you need each day are baby steps and before you know it, you are going full throttle.
TMI:Â How much information is too much or too much opinion? Is the deluge of digital information robbing us of the good old habits of credible research work?
What is it? Can you figure this out? Let me know if you know what the answer is.

Why did he:Â what a dark and disturbing read.
X-men:Â is it possible that you are a mutant? An interesting perception.
Notably sound: I enjoyed this post from Roo. As we age, the younger generation tends to think that the older parent are no longer as sound as ever. I like Roos’ practical approach of proving them wrong 😉

Prepping the feet – Every day beautiful people.
Watching the old man go about the seemingly mundane business of trimming his toe nails takes me back to my younger years when my grandparents were still alive.
I would trim my grandma’s nails and massage her feet with a special ointment made out of shea butter and I recall how she would praise and call me pet names that only she had the privilege to 😊
Now, I feel nostalgic.
