A L O H A From Honolulu!
Dry Land Taro in the Morning
Holding Love, Light
& Caring
Is Not Nothing.
Sharing Them
Is Everything.
All my life I have tried
to pluck a thistle
and plant a flower
wherever the flower
would grow in
thought and mind.
Abraham Lincoln
Perhaps the most
comforting thing
about growing old gracefully
is the increasing ability not
to take things too seriously.-
- One of the big differences
between a genuine sage
and a preacher is gaiety.
Henry Miller
If one could pass through
Paradise in a dream, and
have a flower presented to one
as a pledge that your soul
had really been there,
and if you found that flower
in hand when ye awake -
Aye, what then?
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
There's calm in each
and every day,
we just need to
practice reaching
out for it.

I hope Jaz Minds opened up again? The Henry Miller quote is a little odd....I need to think about it more...(I know what he's getting at but it's the genuine sage I'm questioning, what he's driving at). #NaturesNotes
