Think Say Want and Do

 A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U


Kindness is an inner desire that makes us want to do good things even if we do not get anything in return. It is the joy of our life to do them. When we do good things from this inner desire, there is kindness in everything we think, say, want, and do. Emanuel Swedenborg





Golden Trumpet Tree Blossom





I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable…but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.
Agatha Christie



Vision is the art of seeing
what is invisible to others.
   Jonathan Swift




Say what you mean,
But don't say it mean.
   Andrew Wachter




Today I bent the truth to
be kind, and I have no regret,
for I am far surer of
what is kind than I
am of what is true.
Robert Brault

Few people know how to take a walk. 
The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence, and nothing too much.
   Ralph Waldo Emerson

  1. I love the quote about knowing what is kind more than what is true! I also love the picture of Pixie gazing fondly at the parade of ducklings.

  5. Good thought about bending the truth to be kind to someone as opposed to lying for selfish reasons.

  12. I connected with seeing what others don't see and being kind enough to share it with others.

  13. I agree, you can say what you mean, without being mean about it.
