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

Black-crowned Night Heron

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.

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.'

Beauty Joy & Promise

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

A pink sky welcomes
beauty, joy & promise.
A pink sky makes my
hopeful heart sing.

Remember, the best way to

resist darkness is to

shine your own light.

Be the kindness

that defies negativity.  

     Mattie Stepanek

Cultivating goodwill 

isn't just about 

giving to others

—it's about giving 

to yourself, too. 

When we treat ourselves 

with kindness, we create 

a benevolent mindset that 

fuels our ability to spread joy 

and connection to 

those around us.

   Kristin Neff

The most valuable possession 

you can own is an open heart. 

The most powerful weapon 

you can be is an 

instrument of peace.

 Look past your thoughts, so you may drink the pure nectar of This Moment. Rumi

"Tiny People"

Like Sun, from the East, 

may you continue 

to rise, smile 

and shine.

             Ogwo David Emenike

Most black cats have a hidden tabby pattern (often called "ghost stripes" or "ghost markings") that can be seen upon close inspection, particularly in bright sunlight. 
All domestic cats genetically carry the tabby pattern, as it is the original wild-type coat pattern. For a cat to appear solid black, a separate "non-agouti" gene works to mask this pattern. This gene doesn't always do a perfect job, which is why the subtle stripes, spots, or swirls may still be visible.

Never say anything 

about yourself 

you do not want 

to come true.

                 Brian Tracy 

Allowing You cannot force

a bloom to rise, Nor hurry morning

to your skies.

But if you pause,

relax your guard, Then light will enter—

soft unbarred. No need to hunt

the peace you seek; It waits beneath

the noise, yet speaks

a voice of friendship,

not command, Just breathe

And pause. Reach out your hand. Joy grows where pressure

Disappears; Listening well.

Then it comes near!

What you choose

Begins the art Of allowing joy

Into your heart. Cloudia Charters

A Tree in Holiday Light

 A  L  O  H  A  

From Honolulu!

Our hearts grow tender 

with childhood memories

 and love of kindred, 

and we are better 

throughout the year 

for having, in spirit, 

become a child 

again 

at Christmas-time.  

               Laura Ingalls Wilder

Not a Christmas tree, 

yet there it stands,

a quiet sentinel 

by the door—

its branches laced 

with red and green,

a wink of wonder, 

nothing more.

The lights hum softly 

in the breeze,

each spark a carol 

without sound;

the night feels brighter 

through the leaves—

Mele Kalikimaka 

all around!

    Pixie

May you have the 

gladness of Christmas 

which is hope; 

The spirit of Christmas 

which is peace; 

The heart of Christmas 

which is love.

Pleasures, Excitements, Worthwhilenesses

 

"I’m always relaxed and never worry about things. I do whatever I have to do today. I do everything I have to do and never worry about other people. 

I’m just a happy person, 

that’s all. 

Keep yourself happy.

I’m Just a Happy Person, That’s All”

Superager Stella Shimabukuro 100,

Only the weak are cruel.

Gentleness can only be

expected from the strong. Leo Buscaglia

Happiness held

is the seed; Happiness shared

is the flower. John Harrington

If my world were to cave in tomorrow, I would look back on all the pleasures, excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had... It will have been enough. Audrey Hepburn

If Patient

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

When you take the

high road you will 

see things that most 

people won’t. 

        Lolly Daskal

The biggest 

positive changes

in your life will 

come from

noticing an invitation 

to grow and trusting 

yourself enough

to accept it.

    Corey Allen

If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow. Chinese Proverb

All doubt,

despair and fear become insignificant

once the

intention of life becomes love. Rumi
