Random Acts of Loveliness

A L O H A From Honolulu!
To gild refined gold,
to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume
on the violet,
To smooth the ice,
or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or
with taper-light
To seek the beauteous
eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and
ridiculous excess.
Shakespeare




Out in the lonely woods
the jasmine burns
Its fragrant lamps, and turns
Into a royal court
with green festoons
The banks of
dark lagoons.
   Henry Timrod






True friends are those
who lift you up when your heart's wings
forget how to fly. Anonymous




Always give
without remembering
and always receive
without forgetting. Brian Tracy

I Lift My Lamp

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Real generosity
toward the future
lies in giving all
to the present.
Camus





 Practice kindness all day
 to everybody and
 you will realize 
you’re already in 
heaven now. 
            Jack Kerouac






The simplest acts of
kindness are by far
more powerful than a
thousand heads
bowing in prayer.
  Mahatma Gandhi




Street & Stream
Be like a river.
Be open.
Flow.
    Julie Connor











Give me your tired,
your poor,
Your huddled masses
yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of
your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless,
tempest-tossed, to me:
I lift my lamp beside
the golden door.
   Emma Lazarus


To ease another's
heartache is to
forget one's own.
Abraham Lincoln

Joy Support

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

We are born of love;
Love is our mother.
   Rumi








Joy like other emotions
longs to be shared.
This requires support...







...Not only do we need
permission to be honest
about emotions like
sadness anger and fear.
We need permission
to be joyful...






And we need
this permission
from other people
and ourselves...





...We need other people
to help us recall,
recognize and reflect
on the good.
Angela Williams Gorrell

Thank YOU for Helping!
