Tuesday Windows

 A  L  O  H  A !


If we can't have 

world peace, I'll settle 

for a quiet room.

 Joyce Rachelle

The windows of the houses 

– even if the house is ramshackle – 

are always beautiful because 

windows  represent light! 

           Mehmet Murat ildan















After Dark, I Go Home To My 'Room

If your thoughts are 

as tall as the height 

of your ceiling, you can’t 

fly above your room.

     Israelmore Ayivor










That's All Folks!

All the windows 

of my heart

 I open to the day.

              John Greenleaf Whittier

Questions and an Answer

A  L  O  H  A !
There is frequently more to 

be learned from the unexpected 

questions of a child than 

the discourses of men. 

     John Locke








A sudden bold and 

unexpected question doth 

many times surprise a man 

and lay him open. 

     Francis Bacon














If history repeats itself, and 

the unexpected always happens, 

how incapable must Man be 

of learning from experience. 

George Bernard Shaw















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












 Take A Moment.

Take A Beat.

All components of

the approaching Great











All bad things, 

like good things, 

must end.      
                        
     Nihar Sharma



Thank Goodness!

Fear Cure

Thanks, Carroll Cox  Link


"Friendship with ones self 
is all important, 
because without it 
one cannot be friends 
with anyone else in the world."
Eleanor Roosevelt


"Those that are a friend 
to themselves
 are sure to be 
a friend to all."
Seneca

it would cease 
to be life..."

"The secret to happiness 
is to put the 
burden of proof 
on unhappiness."  
              Robert Brault

I'm timid.

Now I'm strong enough
to accept that.
No more covering it up
with boldness.

So I am free
to share with You
a fear talisman
that works for me;

It is called:

Today Is Not The Day

Today is not the day.

That thing you most fear
will not be coming today;
Salutations and
burden of proof
upon ye!

Forever is comprised
of Now
riding the rail of your 
"Fate"
so to speak,
growing so wise
the truth is a squeak;

But I can perceive it
beneath world's din
tune out the inessential
-Believe-
and move right in.

Thank YOU
for visiting today!

fear misfortune, 
you'll miss out 
on happiness. "


Hebrew Proverb

Grandma used to say
that if everyone
took their problems
out to the sidewalk
to trade,
everybody 
would 
go back inside
with their own.

Just do
what you can do
today.
Then Rest.

Don't forget
to ENJOY 
the little pleasures!

Sure appreciate YOU
looking in!

Huge NEWS

ALOHA    FRIENDS !

When you live on a boat, as we do, 
THIS is your view!
There is little to see out your porthole,
 maybe one palm tree
 that moves out of sight
with the movements of the boat
at the end of it's ropes.



Yes, this has been home for 20 years,
as I posted about recently



We don't HAVE a view,
we ARE the view!




But all that is about to change
BIG TIME



Below
you can see
my 
N E W
V I E W!




I'm beside myself.
Bathroom, Kitchen,
S P A C E. . . 


Housing is expensive on islands,
and we looked at many
depressing places-




But finally found a situation
a couple of blocks from
the harbor.
My days can still begin
with a walk on Waikiki Beach.




“ I have heard the mermaids singing, 
each to each. ”
 
 T. S. Eliot
 








So I'll still see the familiar neighbors:
“ Why do we love the sea?
It is because it has some potent power
to make us think things we like to think. ”
 
Robert Henri


Just not LIVE with them.








I just hope this sailor can adjust.
But I KNOW
that I
WILL!




So please excuse my absence
if I'm not around your blogs
as much as I'd like.


Now you know.
But please don't tell Kitty yet.


I'm gonna lay down now.


My sea legs are confused,
and my head
is SPINNING!


But no more emergencies in the night
like THIS one,
that caused my husband 
to miss my nieces wedding.


Or THIS one
that almost sank us!


THIS scary one,


or the TWO Tsunami alerts
HERE & HERE.


Guess I'm just getting soft.


Hooray!
