Enthralled

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

Though we travel the world 
over to find the beautiful, 
we must carry it with us, 
or we find it not.
       Ralph Waldo Emerson




For the unlearned, 
old age is winter; 
for the learned, it is the 
season of the harvest.
            Hasidic saying








The longer I live 
the more beautiful 
life becomes.
Frank Lloyd Wright





Allow yourself to 
become enthralled 
once in a while.
          Peter Schwartz

I went down the street
to the 24-hour grocery.
When I got there, the guy
was locking the front door.
I said, 'Hey, the sign says
you're open 24 hours.'
He said, 'Yes, but
not in a row.'

    I always wondered how Hawaiians did that 24-hour thing. Linda in Kansas

    Together, these quotes gently remind us that beauty, wisdom, and wonder deepen with age when we remain attentive, curious, and willing to be moved by life.
