When words are both true and
kind, they can change the world
Buddha
Turn your face to the sun and
the shadows fall behind you.
Maori Proverb
Why did the pigeon cross the road?
It was the chicken’s day off.
Entered what I ate today
into my new fitness app and it just
sent an ambulance to my house.
Anti-Quarantine protesters are
like teaching a pigeon to play chess:
They don't know jack about it,
they don't wanna hear you explain it,
in the end they knock down the pieces
and strut around like they won the game.
Kupuna = Senior [Hawaiian]
As the parents' generation fades, the
few left were referred to as "hulu mâkua"
as highly valued as choice feathers,
which were the jeweled treasures
of Hawaiian culture.
I am determined to be cheerful and happy
in whatever situation I may find myself.
For I have learned that the greater part of
our misery or unhappiness is determined not
by our circumstance but by our disposition.
