Tread Lightly

Aloha Weary Web Traveler!

Rest here in legendary Waikiki for a spell. . .

People simply love this giant banyan right on Kuhio Beach



"Basic research is what I'm doing

when I don't know what I'm doing."

Wernher von Braun








Spires used to be high places in the old days.
Now the residential & commercial towers are higher.
But all remains grounded in flowers...
...in Aloha.



“An instinctive taste teaches men to build

their churches with spire steeples

which point as with a silent finger to the sky and stars.”


Samuel Taylor Coleridge






Light!
Light's the WHOLE thing,
in nature,
and in US.

"Our job

is to tend to our own growth as people,

our grace and integrity and humility.


We need no other goal.


The core of our being

then grows into a substantial

power,

externally as well as internally.


Our ministry becomes

a direct line of creation,

from God

through us

to all mankind."

Marianne Williamson


Well, we are influencing others all the time...

what "mood" what "attitude"

are YOU contributing?


I'm a recovering nervous wreck,

so really living these truths

is what makes my life

livable.....


It feels a lot better,
and people respond better.

And the last US combat brigade has left Iraqi soil.

Good luck to the Iraqi people.

Little by little. . .
