there will come a day when
others will have no choice
but to believe with you."

Royal Hawaiian Interior
"The sun does not realize
how wonderful it is until
after a room is made.
A man’s creation,
the making of a room, is
nothing short of a miracle.
Just think, that a man can
claim a slice of the sun.”
Louis Kahn, Architect

Best Advice Ever
A L O H A !
Royal Hawaiian Hotel Art
"The hotel commenced operations on
1 February 1927, with a black tie gala
attended by over 1,200 guests, quickly
becoming an icon of Hawaii's glory days."

Half of the Pacific runs through my home. If I had stayed in Hawaii I would have been same same Cloudia, retired and at the end of a lot of stories.
I would have been part of the community, of our small community anyway, and a kupuna* bearing memory and local stories & knowledge.
But we came on an adventure. We started a new beginning, a new chapter. And that keeps you young, fresh and evolving. And not at the end yet.
But just like people from Earth who make a home on the moon, I need to visit the home planet, to keep the connections fresh and real, not receding to memory. Then after some R&R I can come back to my exciting new adventure, still a Hawaii person in Marin, not a haole* snowbird who comes to Hawaii from time to time and sees only the outside face. I know where the family stay.
Thank YOU
Friend!

*Haole: Foreigner, or light skinned person

Places We Walked, Places We Were
A L O H A !
The Portals I walked through -
"As you sing, the
portals of heaven
are opening."
Sherry K. White
Walking Distance; Places Near Home -
“Hegel used to say that
the familiar, precisely
because it is familiar,
remains unknown.”
Carl William Brown
“At the end of the day,
it isn’t where I came from.
Maybe home is somewhere
I’m going and never
have been before.”
Warsan Shire
â³¢
. . . Distant Memories
as I sit here today.
Is it Places I Miss,
or the Younger Person
I Was Walking There?
What place remains
vivid in your mind's eye
though you have not
walked there for
a long time?
