Patience Strong

  A L O H A  From

H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

And while I stood there 
I saw more 
than I can tell 
and I understood 
more than I saw; 
for I was seeing in 
a sacred manner 
the shapes of all things 
in the spirit, and 
the shape of all shapes 
as they must live together 
like one being.
Black Elk



If you stand very still
and you hold to your faith
you will get all the
help that you ask -
You will draw from the Silence
the things that you need -
Hope and courage, and
strength for your task.
Patience Strong


We are the music makers, 
and we are the 
dreamers of the dream.
Wandering by 
lone sea breakers, 
and sitting 
by desolate streams.
World losers 
and world forsakers, 
for whom the 
pale moon gleams.
Yet we are movers 
and the shakers
 of the world 
forever it seems.
Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy




Life is short.
Smile
while you still have teeth. Mallory Hopkins

Hi to both you and Pixie...we didn't have much storm troubles last night, though many across the south apparently did. I need to smile more.

I love the Black Elk and O'Shaughnessy quotes and Pixie smiling upside down.
