You never know when
it's going to be over so
I refuse to have a bad day.

The most

beautiful adventures are not those we go to seek. Robert Louis Stevenson

A worthy person is still 
worthy even penniless. 
A donkey is a donkey 
even if finely saddled.
                      Turkish Proverb

Some things feel huge
in the moment,
like they reach everywhere.
But dark days
shrink down small
when we notice,
breathe, and care.

Be happy

for this moment. This moment

is your life. Omar Khayyam

May you always have

walls for the winds,

a roof for the rain,

tea beside the fire,

laughter to cheer you,

those you love near you

and all your heart

might desire. Irish Blessing

From

The voice of an angel is a melody that carries the whispers of hope, the echoes of love, and the promise of a

brighter tomorrow. Septimus Winner Whispering Hope,

song written in 1868

The beach is

not always a place, Sometimes it is just

a pause in your day when the noise recedes like a tide that knows

when to leave. In the hush

between thoughts, No shoreline in sight, something inside loosens. Horizon behind your ribs. You stand there, not needing to move, no need to arrive, Just feel the waves

that find you. No shoreline in sight, Cloudia Charters

You don’t take a photograph. You ask, quietly, to borrow it. Author Unknown

Make each day

your masterpiece. John Wooden

A Java Sparrow,

also known as Java finch
or Ricebird. Endangered

in its native Indonesia,

there are thriving introduced

wild populations in Hawaii.

In Art!

The Java sparrow has been

a popular cage bird in

Asia for centuries, frequently

appearing in Japanese paintings

and prints. Meiji-era writer

Natsume Sōseki wrote an

essay about his pet Java sparrow.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s

the Java sparrow was one of the

most popular cage birds in

the United States until its

import was banned.

Green They Say

Be Your Own Moon

 

Strawberry Moon June 29th/ 30th 2026 

How like a Queen
comes forth
the lonely Moon
From the slow-opening
curtains of the clouds,
Walking in beauty
to her midnight throne!...
George Croly

Red remembers every word 

the night has ever said,

soft on the face 

like a hidden blush of stars.

Glow that lingers after sunset,

quiet ember behind the eyes,

silence paints your cheeks 

with every secret light.

Cloudia Charters

Cultivating a close, 

warm-hearted

feeling for others

automatically puts 

the mind at ease.

It helps remove 

whatever fears

or insecurities 

we may have and 

gives us the strength to

cope with any obstacles 

we encounter.

It is the ultimate source 

of success in life.

     Dalai Lama

You do not have to chase 

what is meant for you

It moves at the pace 

of  becoming.

Tend to your breath, 

your steps, small kindness.

The rest will find you 

as you're  ready to need it.

Soften today

Let your heart be a garden

trusting the rain.

What is meant for you

is on its way,

finding you with 

every breath you take.

Just Friction

 

 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

Give me coffee

to change the things I can,

and the beach to

accept the things I can’t.

Put some time aside to live,

to just live and enjoy

smelling the flowers.

Cyndi Lauper

A gem cannot be polished

without friction, nor can we.
