Restore

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 The day you were born 

was the day that God decided 

that the world could not

exist without you. 

   Rabbi Nachman

Big Red

Every fragile beauty, every

perfect forgotten sentence,

you grieve their going away,

but that is not how it is.

Where they come from

never goes dry.

It is an always

flowing spring.

   Rumi

Weather

You can't get mad 

at weather because 

weather's not about you. 

Apply that lesson 

to most other 

aspects of life.

               Douglas Coupland

Bush Face

I felt a positive yearning toward

one bush this afternoon.

There was a match found

for me at last. I fell in love

with a shrub oak. 

 Henry David Thoreau

Honolulu Pride Parade 15 OCT

A L O H A From Honolulu!

"Everyone loves a parade."

That's what "They" say,

and they just may be right.

First Time In Two Years!

From babes in arms,

to those in their second childhood,

something draws us in

to this ancient procession

with it's roots

in community,

And ritual.

Dogs do speak, but

only to those who

know how to listen.

    Orhan Pamuk

We are rarely proud

when we are alone.

Voltaire

One must either

 take an interest in 

the human situation 

or else parade

 before the void. 

    Jean Rostand 

Pride is a personal commitment.

It is an attitude which

separates excellence

from mediocrity.

William Blake

 I'm still passionately interested in what my fellow humans are up to. For me, a day spent monitoring the passing parade is a day well-spent. Garry Trudeau

Dogs are SO

uninhibited!

Carl Chopin

Those aren't real dogs

and I Don't Like It!

Sail on. You'll make it

Time Setters

A L O H A From Honolulu! 6:37pm

In North America,

a coalition of businessmen

and scientists decided

on time zones, and

in 1883, U.S. and

Canadian railroads

adopted four

(Eastern, Central,

Mountain & Pacific)

to streamline service...

...The shift was not

universally well received.

Evangelical Christians were

among the strongest

opponents, arguing

“time came from God

and railroads were

not to mess with it."

New York Times *

The trick to forgetting

the big picture

is to look at

everything

close-up.

 Chuck Palahniuk

Every human being is

an artist, a freedom being,

called to participate

in transforming and

reshaping the conditions,

thinking and structures

that shape and

inform our lives.

    Joseph Beuys

The job of cats is to inspire

Our Morning After

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Ducks

Be willing to be a beginner 

every single morning.

 Meister Eckhart

The longest way 

must have its close - 

the gloomiest night 

will wear on to 

a morning.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Work hard,

keep the ceremonies,

live peacefully,

and unite your hearts.

Hopi Proverb

My New Friend Reetha

Did you ever take a street

[or beach] photo, edit it

fast, and go offer it

to the subject?

Reetha was very gracious

with a smile that shines.

I teed up the shot in a text

and she sent it to herself

from my phone.

"You should move here!"

I said, transfixed by her

bright face and

Aloha manner.

"Maybe I will!"

"Well, you have my number

with your photo, so call

me if you need anything."

From far, from 

eve and morning,

And yon twelve-winded sky,

This stuff of life to knit me

Blew hither: 

here am I.

E. M. Forster
