"If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love,

you must have the courage to live it."

John Irving

"We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing,

while others judge us by what we have already done."

Longfellow

"An egotist is a person of low taste -

more interested in himself than in me."

Ambrose Bierce

We think we're supposed to be busy,

proactive, and ever alert.

It's buyer beware

your own damned fault;

Hey! Look where you are going!

Vacation's a commodity

you need to book and pay for.

We feel guilty

"just doing nothing"

though that's where the action is.

We have lost the primal knack

of living in the moment

being free without atonement

But here & now

is where the action is.

Thank you for joining us here!

Saturday I met a remarkable man, on Sunday I attended a Blogger Party here in Honolulu with Kay of Musings, Ian Lind, Burl Burlingame, and our hostess, Gigi in Hawaii (http://travelerswife.blogspot.com/2009/10/gigis-blogger-bash.html)

.....But more about all that later........Gotta run! This week I MUST buy a new computer. I haven't been able to visit all of you as much as I want - but that will all change soon! Thanks SO much for your dear visits here...

Warm ALOHA, to YOU
