Calm Mind Strong

A L O H A From Honolulu!

A little elation now and
then can help you
feel alive again.




Let the smile do the work.




The nearer we come
to a calm mind, the
closer we are to strength.

 Hope is being able to see
that there is light despite
all of the darkness.

Being an ailurophile, I always look forward to the cat picture near the end. Is it yours?
