Never Limit

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Good To Have Visitors Back in Waikiki

Bali Ha'i may call you,

any night, any day.

In your heart, you'll

hear it call you.

Come away,

come away.

    Peggy Lee

Balinese Buddha

Life, religion and art

all converge in Bali.

They have no word in

their language for 

artist' or 'art.'

Everyone is an artist.

Mom's Pool & Beach View

Our view of the world

is truly shaped by

what we decide

to hear.

Beach Town Rental

And like flowers

in the fields, that

make wonderful views,

when we stand

side-by-side in

our wonderful hues...

We all make a beauty

so wonderfully true.

We are special and

different, and just

the same, too!

Don't try to

fine tune

someone else's

view. George H W Bush

Never limit your view of life

by any past experience.

Morning Light Honolulu

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It is early, early morning.

It's that time when it's

still dark but you know

the day is coming.

Blue is bleeding

through black.

Stars are dying.

Markus Zusak

So I find words I never 

thought to speak

In streets I never thought 

I should revisit

When I left my body 

on a distant shore.

T.S. Eliot

During 4 California years,

these are the streets, Trees,

Light, Smells, Sights, and people 

I dreamt of. . . .

Back Door

1916

Hawaii's Queen, Liliuokalani 

was alive

when this was laid.

I walked over it today.

This illustrates the times frame of

our culture and history in the islands.

Driving my taxi here in Honolulu

in the mid 1980s,

I drove a dignified older gentleman

who told me how the Queen

worked in her garden, smoking

small cigars, and graciously

greeting the school children

as they passed, 

Such he had been:

A schoolboy 

who knew a Queen.

The Hawaiian Kingdom

is not merely historic.

For a dark street,

sunshine is most welcome;

for a wounded soul,

love is most welcome!

Mehmet Murat ildan

She is yellow, I'm all blue...

It's ok! What can I do!?

 Liviu C. Tudose

I would never date a lizard OR gecko
 or whatever that thing is.
Keep moving up the wall, buddy,
I'm too yellow for YOU!

Ô, Sunlight! 

The most precious gold 

to be found on Earth.

Happiness Wellness

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

Morning Warming

This is a wonderful day. 

I’ve never seen this one before. 

  Maya Angelou

Tiny Rainbow

When you do something beautiful 

and nobody notices,

do not be sad. For 

the sun every morning is 

a beautiful spectacle 

and yet most of the 

audience still sleeps.

John Lennon

 

Wellness is associated 

with happiness. 

When you're happy, 

you're feeling good 

in your mind and body. 

That ties into being healthy, 

eating well, and 

exercising regularly. 

It also ties into being 

excited about things - 

like getting up in the morning 

and having a healthy breakfast.

              Stella Maxwell

At the end of the day, 

stay morally clear 

to yourself.

    Debasish Mridha

Each and every simple thing 

done throughout the day 

with absolute excitement, 

brings amazing results 

at the end of the day.

    Purvi Raniga

 

I would like to see anyone, 

prophet, king or God, 

convince a thousand cats 

to do the same thing 

at the same time. 

      Neil Gaiman

Somewhere, 

something incredible 

is waiting 

to be known.

Waikiki Winter At Last

A   L   O   H   A  !

Honolulu 7:14 am

Spending Four Winters:

2015-'16, '16-'17, '17-'18, '18-2019

on North America, even the 

San Francisco Bay Area,

has made me a 

worshiper of Sun

I'm Very Thankful To Be Home

Where we love is home, 

home that our feet may leave, 

but not our hearts.

in life is meeting people half way.

Homeward Magicness

A   L   O   H   A  !

Marin, California Nov 2015 - May 2019  -  "Final Dawn"

There is a kind of magicness about going 

far away and then coming back all changed.

            Kate Douglas Wiggin

The day arrived. Final exit from "our"

driveway, and leaving of "our" street, our

 neighborhood. Dear neighbor drove us.

Goodbye, Pacheco Pond,

Golden Gate Bridge. Likely I will

never cross you again. Going home.

No intention to ever leave again.

Hawaii.

"Leaving On A Jet Plane"

All roads lead home as home 

is where the heart is. 

So Love. Simply Love. 

For love is home to all of us.

        Wald Wassermann

I want to be someone you can’t live without.

           Charlotte Eriksson

VERY complicated procedure to bring

even an island born pet home!

Multiple tests, vet visits, and messengered

official paperwork for the State!

Every detail scrutinized, double checked.

Or Pixie would be incarcerated on return.

For months. The State office at HONO

that handles such matters was 

peopled by sad folks after long flights,

who just didn't know!

Children separated from pets! Adult

children separated from theirs, sadly.

At last a State veterinarian carrying

Pixie and a thick sheaf of documents

with our name on it appeared.

All in order! Happy Day!!!

We left the sad people,

an intact family for the

final leg of this epic journey:

Waikiki.

It was his home now. But 

it could not be his home till he had 

gone from it and returned to it. 

Now he was the Prodigal Son.
