How Good


A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U
Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset. Saint Francis de Sales



Every circumstance in life, 
no matter how 
crooked and distorted 
and ugly it 
appears to be, if 
it is reacted to in
love and forgiveness 
can be transformed.
     Hannah Hurnard





Ah, how good it feels!
The hand of an old friend.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow







The greatest
healing therapy is friendship and love. Hubert H. Humphrey

If the ocean can
calm itself so can you.
We are both salt water
mixed with air.

This gentle reminder by Nayyirah Waheed beautifully connects our inner storms to the natural rhythm of the ocean—resilience and peace are within us, just like the sea.

I bet Saint Francis de Sales never had to rush to work, take the children to school, do the shopping, answer the cell-phone, and all the other things at the same time ... WHERE are my car keys?

God bless.

I was going to respond to the de Sales quote, but I see that Victor beat me to it, and did a much better job of putting it into words :-)
