Aloha!
Let's Walk in Waikiki Together. . .
"Make love a stain upon your heart;
Spill your love on others
Spill your love on others
until they too are stained."
Anonymous Tibetan monk
Shell Ginger
"If you can sit with a rose, or any other blossom,
and 'be' with it's quiet presence,
you will smell the scent
of the spirit world
because you & I are one;
We've grown in this same space."
Oprah winfrey
"Kindness sets the heart free."
“This is my simple religion.
There is no need for temples;
no need for complicated philosophy.
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple;
the philosophy is kindness.”
no need for complicated philosophy.
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple;
the philosophy is kindness.”
Dalai Lama
Today I went out walking between the raindrops.
Gentle mist acted like rain - but couldn't keep up the impersonation.
Patches of blue sky appeared.
Sunshine drew moisture from the grass.
Heaven & nature sing.
Locals and visitors drink it all in.
Just another day-
in Waikiki.Thanks for sharing it with me! Please leave a comment, cloudia
