Shimmy Ko 2 Bop

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Our prime purpose in life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.
Dalai Lama




I cannot do all the good that the world needs. But the world needs all the good that I can do. Jana Stanfield 






A cloudy day is no match 
for a sunny disposition.

The past is just a fleeting dream, Future a distant wavering beam. Here we stand where time aligns, It is in the present
that magic shines.
Cloudia Charters



So breathe in deep, let worries cease,
Embrace the now, find your peace. For what matters most, in truth,
we see, Is this day right here—
just you and me.
Pixie

I hope I can and do help. I hope even more fervently I do no harm.

From the first part of the post, I am reminded of the medical motto to, "Do no harm."

Such a lovely and thought-provoking post, Cloudia! Hawaii is drawing closer on my calendar, and I can't wait to get back. Mine is a little purpose, but it is to smile at people who are often invisible. As an older woman I refuse to be invisible. It's amazing what a smile can do. It helps me more than the people I smile at. Wishing you aloha!
