Govern Myself

A L O H A From Honolulu!


 We cannot become
 what we need to be
 by remaining
 what we are.

Imperfections
are not inadequacies;
they are reminders that
we're all in this together.

trip you may take 
in life is meeting

Softly Subtle Considerations

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Dawn breaks bright, Made it through the night. Each choice can be
a hopeful start, To mend your soul
and heal our hearts. Though shadows linger
light will mend, Calm spirits make
a faithful friend. Embrace the day
no need to be bold, Your story's written
just as yet untold. So step outside,
let worries cease, Accept the air
with sweet release. In each step
may your strength
be renewed, You've made your
path of purpose,
That's beautifully understood.
Cloudia Charters


Between stimulus and response,
there is space. In that space is
our power to choose our response.
In our response lies our growth
and our freedom.
        Viktor E. Frankl




Cacophonies

Of clashing views,
Always miss
The subtle hues.

Truth, I've found,
hates extremes,
Always present,
But softly gleams.
Pixie







Elections belong to the people.
It's their decision, if they
decide to turn their back
on the fire
and burn their behinds,
then they will just have to
sit on their blisters.
Abraham Lincoln

Soothe Mend

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Tempest in the mind,
Destructive and unkind.
From chaos choice emerges 
To quell, to seek, to find. 

Peaceful shore forevermore.
Accepting
What remains in store 
Balance is a gentle hold,
Sanctuary of calm
More precious than gold.

Choosing tranquility
My conscious art,
To soothe the soul
And mend a wounded heart.
                 Cloudia Charters 






I will love the light 
for it shows me 
the way, yet
 I will endure the 
darkness because
 it shows me the stars. 
                   Og Mandino



Sometimes when you lose your
way in the fog, you end up
in a beautiful place!
Don’t be afraid... 
      Mehmet Murat Ildan

Few delights can equal 
the mere presence of
 one whom we 
trust utterly.

Decide

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It was only a sunny smile,
and little it cost in the giving,
but like morning light
it scattered the night
and made the day
worth living.
  F. Scott Fitzgerald




 The doors we open
and close each day decide the lives we live. Flora Whittemore



For fog was merely a cloud
that wasn’t too
smitten with itself
to visit terra firma.
Jan Karon



A Stand of Plumeria/Frangipani Trees
There is nothing more beautiful than nature early in the morning. Vincent Van Gogh



 Anyone who keeps
learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young. Henry Ford
