Wise Enough (To) Fool

A L O H A From Honolulu!

To love and be loved is to
feel the sun from both sides. 
     David Viscott


Help young people.
Help small guys. Because
small guys will be big.
Young people will have the
seeds you bury in their minds,


- and when they grow up,
they will change the world. Jack Ma




No place can ever change
as much as the person
who grows up there. David Viscott


I was wise enough to
never grow up while
fooling most people
into believing I had.
Margaret Mead

Sings The Western Sky

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Crimson sings
the western sky, Sun dips low
as we all sigh. Streetlights share
a guiding hand, On Oahu's North Shore,
Tired and Tanned.

When I use the camera, 
I often feel like I know part
 of the people or places 
I come in contact with.

Lily
Where flowers bloom,
so does hope.
Lady Bird Johnson




Love is the joy of the good, 
the wonder of the wise, the 
amazement of the Gods.

Real Aloha

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It's the love of the people.
That's what it is. Without the people
I can't do it. You know, I believe that
to heal people, you need to learn how
to love them. The more you give them
love the greater they become.
Auntie Blanche McMillan

Perpetual optimism

Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii
by Solomon Enos



Be in the moment.
Stop thinking about the future
or the past, about what may or
may not happen, and put away
your phone. If a child in your lap
asks about the best part of your day,
say, “This is.”
        Daniel Jones



Election Heebee Jeebies

Hope for the best
prepare for the worst.
Daily blessed, if
Sometimes feeling cursed.

In the unknown,
Potential is sown.
Among  the shadows
Light is grown.

Yes let us hope
And let us dream
For even in chaos
There's beauty it seems.

Another Irreplaceable Morning

A L O H A From Honolulu!
One small positive thought
can change your whole day
Zig Ziglar




Transform problems into opportunities
and complaints into solutions.
Unite instead of divide.
 Communicate. Communicate.
Communicate.
Where there is a void in
communication negativity will fill it.
      Jon Gordon



Self-compassion
The gentle rain,
Nourishes my roots
To ease the strain...




...Recharge my spirit
Let it mend,
Replenishing my
Other-compassion
To spend.

Afford

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Haters, like parrots,
talk much
but cannot fly. Dreamers,
like eagles, say nothing but
conquer the skies.
 Matshona Dhliwayo



Strong people can
always afford to be gentle,
only the weak are
intent on
fighting a losing battle...

I may disagree with you,
but I am not against you. Marushia Dark 


An error doesn't become a mistake
until you refuse to correct it.

Thank You Pixie

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It is a serious thing
just to be alive
on this fresh morning.
Mary Oliver




No flower, but a hopeful gleam,
Red Ti plant a tropic dream. Though deemed a plant,
It's beauty shines, Testament to those who
Read between the lines.




Be Heartful Not Hurtful




Joy is both a gift and a practice, but it isn’t primarily a feeling any more than self-control or faithfulness are feelings. It is a muscle we can strengthen with exercise. Tish Harrison Warren





I’m here to tell you That you’ve got What it takes!
