Aloha Welcome!

History, beauty, sustenance, & aloha, all offer themselves freely under isle skies.
Here in Hawaii living a rich life is less about money than it is in most other places.
Sure, our visitors and we can find here all the things that money can buy (in abundance!) but Honolulu's real treasure is found in our environment, and in each other; it's about attitude, engagement and down-home enjoyment of all the cultures that make up our unique chop-suey island. . . the sorts of things you discover. . . when you're walki in Waikiki.

It's good to write about your island as much as possible, for nothing lasts forever. What remains are memories. Aloha, Cloudia!
I hope the spirit of Aloha and your description of the environment, attitude and approach to "living in the moment," without excess, remain forever true in Hawai'i. Mahalo, DrumMajor
I can be comfortably idle...and that is a pile of wealth.
I love the one about seeing beauty in humble places... this may become my motto.
beautiful thoughts and images..

Fabulous sayings go with the fabulous pictures. Nice shots.
"...as we think, so we become."
What a powerful message. Thank you Cloudia.
that's pretty much island life for you - from one islander to another
Ahhh, I just took a leisurely walk in Waikiki and now I think I can face the world! Music, food, flowers--did I mention flowers?? Many thanks, Cloudia!
That's you in the photo, gorgeous goddess that you are?!
We now have black flies in Muskoka. Not a pretty sight for those who choose to sunbathe. They take chunks out of you!
All of life should be about those things ... sure $$$ is important but it really cant buy real happiness or contentment .. Aloha!!!!!
The unexpected beauty in humble places can exceed that of any palace!
I'ts very very hard for me to be completely idle. Lana tells me I need to do more of that.
Well the girl at the top does look very welcoming, or should I say, inviting.

It is quite often the things that money can't buy that are the most beautiful. :)
