Imagine It

A L O H A From Honolulu!

When I am feeling dreary,

annoyed and generally

unimpressed by life, I

imagine what it would be like

to come back to this world

for just a day after

having been dead. I

imagine how sentimental

I would feel about the very things

I once found stupid, hateful or

mundane. Oh, there’s a light switch!

It’s so… endearing.

For something to be beautiful,

it doesn't have to be pretty.

Lehua

The lehua is the first tree

that springs up from a

recent lava flow.

It’s for that reason,

when we speak in Hawaiian

and we speak of people who are

 skilled, strong, and beloved,

they’re often referred to as

pua lehua, or lehua flowers.

They, like the lehua, have a

kind of resilience, a strength and

 a grace about them.

Happiness can grow from
only a little contentment.
Pygmy Proverb

Divide and rule,

the politician cries; unite and lead, is

watchword of the wise. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
