Mountain Steady

 A L O H A  From

H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses. Focus on your character, not your reputation. Focus on your blessings, not your misfortunes."
Roy T. Bennett






Never get so busy 
making a living that 
you forget to make a life.
   Dolly Parton







Endurance
Suffering visits every life. 
In simple acceptance  
dignity grows. 
Not loud
But steady as a mountain.
Peace is found   
With open hands.

A Relationship is: 
Two Imperfect People not 
Giving Up on Each Other.

Ideas are like rabbits. 
You get a couple and 
learn how to handle them, and 
pretty soon you have a dozen.

    A quietly powerful piece—its calm, grounded wisdom speaks volumes in just a few lines, capturing the strength in acceptance and the grace of resilience.

    She looks way too serious to be a bunny rabbit. Perhaps she did not like the costume. Lovely photo of the railing shadow.
