Diamond Head
Diamond Head at morning
does not need to rush—
but breathes the coral light,
as gold unfurls along the beach.
The sky leans soft
against her shoulders,
pale blue steeped in hush
while she readies herself,
another dawn
before the day begins.
Standing barefoot in that hour,
feel the sand's embrace.
The island knows your name
but sings it in silence instead.
Never say there is
nothing beautiful in
the world anymore.
There is always something
to make you wonder
in the shape of a tree,
the trembling of a leaf.
Albert Schweitzer
Oh cat, I'd say, or pray:
be-ootiful cat!
Delicious cat! Exquisite cat!
Satiny cat!
Cat like a soft owl,
cat with paws like moths,
jewelled cat, miraculous cat!
Cat, cat, cat, cat.

The Hawaiian Monk Seal, known in Hawaiian as ʻīlio-holo-i-ka-uaua (“dog that runs in rough seas”), is among the most endangered seal species and serves as Hawaii’s state mammal. Only about 1,600 remain worldwide. These native seals are mostly solitary and spend much of their lives hunting in the ocean. Adults typically reach 6 to 7 feet in length and weigh 400 to 600 pounds, with females often larger than males. They are strong divers, able to stay underwater for up to 20 minutes, and can live 25 to 30 years in the wild. Found only in the Hawaiian Islands, their populations are split between the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands and the main islands. They feed on bottom-dwelling prey such as reef fish, eels, squid, octopus, and crustaceans.
This one was on the beach in
Waikiki (where I walk)
the other morning!
The magic is inside you.
There ain't no crystal ball

I am Pixie, soft of paw,
Queen of windows,
watcher of all.
From my sunlit throne I see
The curious ways
of humanity.
Love You,

None of us are getting out of here alive.
So please stop treating yourself like an afterthought, eat the delicious food. Walk in the sunshine. Jump in the ocean...

earlier what only

The simple act of existing amidst challenges provides a foundation for gratitude, and the human connection we forge during those times helps illuminate our shared empathy and compassion.

Life is not about being rich,
being popular, being
highly educated or being
perfect. It's about
being real, being Humble,
and being kind.
