The Only Choice

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We can only face one

direction at a time.

We are either

looking at the sun, or

looking into the dark.

I didn't always understand

this choice. But

have learned that when

I look to the sun

I am filled with light.

When I look to the dark

and to my fears,

everything only gets darker.

Rage against dark by

turning your back on it.

 You have purpose

and meaning,

your time is coming,

keep going and don't

listen to the noise,

everyone has an opinion,

have they built anything? Kalman Samuels

Every day we have a choice.

How you see the world

determines the world you see.

Look for the good.

See the possibilities.

Remember, challenges

are opportunities. Jon Gordon

Real religion is the

transformation of

anxiety into laughter.

Alan Watts

to pluck a thistle

A prudent question is one-half of wisdom. Francis Bacon

heart and soul.

but their shadows were. Toni Morrison

look lovely. Roald Dahl

Knowledge V Wisdom

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Hope is being able to see

that there is light despite

all of the darkness. Desmond Tutu

Knowledge is realizing that

the street is one way;

wisdom is looking in

both directions anyway. Albert Einstein

Heliconia Champneiana "Maya Gold"

Where did love begin?

What human being looked at

another and saw in their face

the forests and the sea?

Was there a day, exhausted

and weary, dragging home food,

arms cut and scarred, that you saw yellow flowers and,

not knowing

what you did, picked them

because I love you?

In the fossil record of

our existence, there is

no trace of love. Jeanette Winterson

A street that you have

never visited is a book

that you have never read! 

   Mehmet Murat ildan

There are only two kinds of faces: Sincere and insincere!

Rare High Surf

On Hawaii's South shores

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Oahu's NORTH Shore is famous for surf,

But THIS is South Shore Waikiki yesterday.

Shot on my normal morning walk.

Sometimes in the morning,

when it's a good surf,

I go out there, and

I don't feel like

it's a bad world.

   Kary Mullis

Now, as we stand

three feet apart

and stare at each other,

I feel the full distance

that comes with spending

so much time apart,

a moment filled with

the electricity of a

first meeting and the

uncertainty of strangers.

 Marie Lu

Also A MAJOR GOOD Mango Season!

People are too complicated

to have simple labels.

   Philip Pullman

All the air you'll ever need

is in the boredom of your life.

But the magic is in

the miniscule mundane.

Jason Reynolds

Never love anyone

who treats you

like you're ordinary.

Oscar Wilde
