With Gentled Hands

A L O H A From Honolulu!



[\\\]





Happiness is not a destination.
It is a method of life.
Burton Hills






A growing relationship
can only be nurtured
by genuineness.
    Leo F. Buscaglia





In wisdom gathered over time
I have found that every experience
is a form of exploration.
 Ansel Adams





With gentled hands
I set them free,
The tangled threads
of fallacy.

No longer grasping
at desires and things,
A quiet joy takes root
in my spirit and sings.

Letting the nonsense
drift to the breeze,
We'll find our solace
And rich inner peace

No longer bound
by empty strife,
I breathe the air of
A mindful life.
