Laugh Say Nothing

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sometimes you need to step

outside, get some air,

and remind yourself

of who you are...

 Gossip Girl

Self-sufficiency is the

greatest of all wealth.

Epicurus

You never know who’s swimming

naked until the tide goes out.

Warren Buffett

There are always flowers

for those who want

to see them.

Sometimes the most

powerful thing you can say

is nothing at all.
Mandy Hale

 She is clothed with strength

and dignity; She can laugh

at the days to come.

 Proverbs 31:25

 A  L  O  H  A !

It is wisdom to know

that you can never 

lose anything 

as long as you 

have yourself.

     Michel de Montaigne 

Wisdom is not a 

product of schooling 

but of the lifelong 

attempt to acquire it. 

     Albert Einstein

Spread your wings of love, 

and let your mind fly 

to a distant land where 

love is the air of life.

 Debasish Mridha

Stop the words now

open the window in 

the center of your chest

and let the spirits 

fly in and out.

Rumi

I'm fine right here, thank you.

(Is she gone yet?)

God will only push you 

off a cliff if 

He's going to give 

you wings to fly.

Doubt Your Doubt

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Doubt your doubts before 

you doubt yourself.

        Lewis Pugh

A person who 

has good thoughts 

cannot ever be ugly. 

You can have a wonky nose 

and a crooked mouth and a

double chin and stick-out teeth,

but if you have good thoughts 

they will shine out of your face 

like sunbeams and you 

will always look lovely.

Roald Dahl

 

If you want to 

see the sunshine, 

you have to 

weather the storm.

Frank Lane

You can't have a wrong 

mentality about life and 

expect that you will see 

the bright side of life.

         Bamigboye Olurotimi

 When words are 

both true 

and kind, 

they can change 

the world.

Buddha

A  L  O  H  A !

Diversity has been written into 

the DNA of American life; 

any institution that lacks 

a rainbow array has come to 

seem diminished, if not diseased.

We're here for a reason. 

I believe a bit of the reason 

is to throw little torches out to 

lead people through the dark.

           Whoopi Goldberg

Gratitude

Dissolves fear.

A smile

Thins the veil

Between Heaven & Earth,

Between souls.

You May Quote Me

A  L  O  H  A !

Welcome the uninvited

to receive it's gift.

You win by not being 

what they expect you to be.

Some people have plenty 

but are miserable. I want to

 have fun-bun-dance. 

[ fun abundance]

 One theme of my life has been 

to profoundly learn appreciation 

for the intelligence of so-called 

stupid people and the stupidity 

of so-called intelligent people.

Know what I mean?

Hawks & Peacocks

A  L  O  H  A !

“In many traditions, 

hawks are sacred: 

Apollo’s messengers 

for the Greeks, 

sun symbols for the 

ancient Egyptians and, in

the case of the Lakota Sioux, 

embodiments of clear vision, 

speed and single-minded 

dedication.”

       John Burnside

Don't seek TRUTH, 

just stop being so invested 

in your own point of view, 

and it will reveal itself to you. 

Peacock  Car

“How come it can’t fly 

no better than a chicken?’ 

Milkman asked.

Too much tail. All that jewelry 

weighs it down. Like vanity. 

Can’t nobody fly with all that [stuff]. 

Wanna fly, you got to give up 

the [stuff] that weighs you down.’

The peacock jumped onto the 

hood of the Buick and once more 

spread its tail, sending the 

flashy Buick into oblivion.” 

           Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon

Like A Hawk

A  L  O  H  A !

"I am not a snowflake. 

I am not a sweet, infantilising 

symbol of fragility and life. 

I am a strong, fierce, flawed 

adult woman. I plan to remain 

that way, in life 

and in death."

               Stella Young

"I restore myself 

when I'm alone"  

                 Marilyn Monroe

 “Accomplishments don’t erase 

shame, hatred, cruelty, silence, 

ignorance, discrimination, low 

self-esteem or immorality. 

It covers it up, 

with a creative version 

of pride and ego. - 

- Only restitution, 

forgiving yourself and others, 

compassion, repentance 

and living with dignity will 

ever erase the past.”

           Shannon L. Alder

Oh I'm Getting Out Of Here!

scar on your heart, 

each one holds a 

lifetime’s worth
