Common Day Wisdom

 A L O H A  From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

Advice
from the sunset:
Close your day 
with beauty.


Beauty is whatever 
gives joy.
              Hugh Nibley





This working tower
Keeps to it's business.

Above, the day-moon lingers,
Unconcerned by the hour
Soft as an old thought
Refusing to leave.

The tower
Carries on.
The moon
Doesn't mind.

Daylight too is silent.
And smiles, knowing 
That there's room
For everyone.
        Cloudia Charters



Life is a series of 
unique opportunities 
It's our job to find 
the happiness in
each one.
     Rick Remender

Lobby Mural  
by Bob Flint, 1997

I like the inter-generational, 
multi-ethnic/cultural mix of folks
in this mural. The local
Ko`olau Mountains are 
a familiar backdrop.
This image says a lot about our
 family-centered lifestyle
on this "country" side of
the island of Oahu.

Yes, Pixie. There is almost always a positive spin on our troubles — I mean to the average person in typical circumstances in their daily lives.
