Great Value

A L O H A From Honolulu!

War and conflict
hold our attention,
but so can profound
beauty and mystery.
Solomon Enos





Gratitude
Dissolves fear.
A smile
Thins the veil
Between Heaven & Earth,
Between souls.






Laugh, I tell you
And you will turn back
The hands of time.

Smile, I tell you
And you will reflect
The face of the divine.

Sing, I tell you
And all the angels will
sing with you!

Suzy Kassem

If you cry because the sun
has gone out of your life,
your tears will prevent you
from seeing the stars. Rabindranath Tagore





Don't be afraid of the
sharps, flats, or minor keys
in the melody of your life.
They give your song it's
soul and great value.

Here's something funny. I have laryngitis right now and one thing I can't do is laugh.

Pixie wonders why that turtle is taking so long.
