In The Simple

 A L O H A  From  

H O N O L U L U


One of life's
most fulfilling moments
occurs in the split-second
when the familiar is suddenly
transformed into the
dazzling aura of the
profoundly new. Edward B. Lindaman





Do not spoil 
what you have by desiring 
what you have not; remember 
that what you now have 
was once among the things 
you only hoped for. 
   Epicurus






Happiness is not the 
absence of problems, it’s the 
ability to deal with them.
     Steve Maraboli







Hold your loved ones close, In the warmth of laughter, And the stillness of the night, Weave your hearts together. Breathe in the moments, Mundane becomes profound, Especially in the simple, Extraordinary is found. Sharing a cup A walk beneath the trees, These are our treasures, Life is made of these Embrace the sorrow and joy Every tear and cheer, Remind us of our journey, It's the love that we hold dear. The beauty of existence, In every little thing, Together, we are building All that life can bring. Cloudia Charters

The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul.
