Essentials

 A  L  O  H  A  From Honolulu!

A picnic is more than 

eating a meal, 

it is a pleasurable state of mind. 

DeeDee Stovel

Under The Bridge

Offering sanctuary is 

a revolutionary act; 

it expresses love, when others 

offer scorn or hate. 

It recognizes humanity, 

when others deny and 

seek to debase it. 

Sanctuary says 'we' rather than 'I'. 

It is belonging—the building block

 of community.

        Diane Kalen-Sukra

The wise heart 

resembles a mirror, 

reflecting everything without 

becoming sullied. 

   Confucious

For this is the essential 

silence of our soul, our 

most inviolable sanctuary, 

and its secret can 

never be lost;

    Maurice Maeterlinck

Some Paddle

 A   L   O   H   A  !

You can't live a perfect day 

without doing something 

for someone who will 

never be able to repay you.

           John Wooden

Plumeria, usually a child's first Lei

E lei kau, e lei ho‘oilo i ke aloha. 

Love is worn like a lei 

through the winter. 

He ho'okele wa'a no ka la 'ino.

 "A steersman for a stormy day."

I pray for President Biden

The canoe stands for the island, 

the community. Some steer, 

some paddle, and some 

only ride along. 

On islands, in 

small communities,

where people know 

one another,

we must paddle together 

if we want to get anywhere.

Those who do not 

believe in the voyage, 

are not forced to paddle.

But, being a 

beloved community,

they too will share the 

benefits

of the voyage.

The door is always open,

to join instead of jeer.

  

Industry, economy, 

honesty, and kindness 

form a quartet of virtues 

that will never be 

improved upon.

           James Oliver

Hearts rebuilt from hope 

resurrect dreams 

killed by hate.

     Aberjhani

True friends are those 

who lift you up

when your heart's wings 

forget how to fly.

The highest form of ignorance 

is when you reject something 

you don't know anything about. 

           Wayne Dyer

If we always look back, we 

lose sight of what's ahead.

Within Yourself

learning the instrument 

as one goes on."

to make a happy life; 

it is all within yourself, 

in your way of thinking."
