Jacaranda Tree of Waikiki

A   L   O   H   A !

“ Go often
 to the house of
 thy friend, 
for weeds choke 
the unused path. ” 

 Ralph Waldo Emerson








" He sees 
the blossoming flower
 in the tiny seed, 
the silver lining 
to every cloud, 
and a beautiful tomorrow
 in the darkest today. "

Edwin Osgood Grover, 
The Book Of Good Cheer, 1913







" Look to be treated
 by others
as you have 
treated others. "

Publius Syrus









“ Be kind; 
everyone you meet 
is fighting a hard battle.” 

 Plato










" Success in life,
 in anything,
depends upon
 the number of persons
that one can 
make ones'self 
agreeable to. "

Thomas Carlyle

  6. Beautiful tree! I think the wisdom of the Plato quote is one we all let lapse from time to to time. Reminders are important.
