Don't Wish You Had

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If it seems a childish thing to do,
do it in remembrance that
you are a child.
Frederick Buechner

Being happy is better

than being king

African Proverb

By cultivating the beautiful we scatter the seeds of heavenly flowers. . . Vernon Howard 

No Hummingbirds in Hawaii

If you see it, shoot it.
If you shoot it,
you really do see it.

 Those who contemplate 

the beauty of the earth

 find reserves 

of strength 

that will endure 

as long as life lasts.

to pluck a thistle
and plant a flower
wherever the flower
would grow in
thought and mind.

Smallest Act

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Too often we underestimate

the power of a touch,

a smile, a kind word, a

listening ear, an honest compliment,

or the smallest act of caring,

all of which have the potential

to turn a life around.

Leo F. Buscaglia

Treasure the love you

have received above all.

It will survive long after

your gold and good

health have vanished. Og Mandino

Yesterday is but a dream,

tomorrow but a vision. But

today well lived makes every

yesterday a dream of happiness,

and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.

Such is the salutation to the dawn.

   Sanskrit Proverb

There is only one difference

between a madman and me.

The madman thinks he is sane.

I know I am mad.

   Dali

Self Peace

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Moopiter - Moon & Jupiter

The wise heart resembles a mirror, reflecting everything without becoming sullied. Confucious

Elvis

One can be instructed in society,

one is inspired only in solitude.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

To heal mine aching moods, Give me God's virgin woods. Clinton Scollard

When you make peace

with yourself, you make

peace with the world.

Walking down the road last night,

I passed an apple pie, an

ice cream sundae, and

a lemon cheesecake. I thought, "the streets are

strangely deserted tonight."

Which Once Existed

A L O H A From Honolulu!

There are so many people...

that are not making it to

the age where their hair

starts to gray. And so

when I see my gray hair,

it actually is a blessing because

it means that, yes, I'm getting

older and I'm still here. Tia Mowry 

Wandering re-establishes

the original harmony

which once existed between

human and universe.

Anatole France

We all struggle at times

and when you see somebody struggling, you think, ‘Gee, that guy is being a jerk. Well, sometimes you’re that jerk. Dwight Lambert

Cease striving. 

Then there will 

be transformation.

           Zhuangzi

A child of five

would understand this. Send someone to fetch

a child of five. Groucho Marx

Each Day Decide

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Intelligent silence is better

than ignorant speech. Matshona Dhliwayo

Stop being afraid about getting older-

Just because you're a certain age

doesn't mean you have to give up

on life, give up on having fun,

give up on having boyfriends

or girlfriends, making new

friends, or whatever

you want to do.

    Jane Fonda

I dream that someday

the step between my

mind and my finger will

no longer be needed.

And that simply by

blinking my eyes, I

shall make pictures. Then,

I think, I shall really have

become a photographer.

Alfred Eisenstaedt

An unhealed person can

find offense in pretty much

anything someone does.

A healed person understands

that the actions of others

have absolutely nothing

to do with them.-

-Each day you get to decide

which one you will be.

    Jay Shetty
