Feel the Good Luck

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

The meaning of life 
is just to be alive.
It is so plain and so obvious
 and so simple.
And yet, everybody 
rushes around in a great panic
as if it were necessary 
to achieve something 
beyond themselves.
              Alan Wilson Watts




True power isn't 
about controlling outcomes.
It's about learning to 
stay connected to 
your own heart in the midst 
of fear and uncertainty.
   Cory Muscara





If I had influence 
with the good fairy
 who is supposed to preside
 over the christening 
of all children,
 I should ask that her gift 
to each child in the world 
be a sense of wonder 
so indestructible
 that it would last 
throughout life, as an 
unfailing antidote...
   Rachel Carson,
  The Sense of Wonder









Every creature has a right 
to be on this Earth. 
Who am I to disrupt 
the natural order? 
"Respect" 
is a good word worth 
handing down to our children.
              Laurence Overmire
