Honolulu Pride

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Hit the reset button.
Whatever happened yesterday,
forget about it.
Get a new perspective.
Today is a new day.
Fresh start begins now. Germany Kent



Congratulations! Today is your day You're off to great places You're off and away You've got brains in your head You've got feet in your shoes You can steer yourself any Direction you choose Dr. Suess

Even the bad moments,
the tough ones,
I'm proud of them, too.
Those moments get you better,
smarter, make you grow.
     Manu Ginobili



There are two kinds of pride,
both good and bad.
'Good pride' represents our
dignity and self-respect.
'Bad pride' is the deadly sin
of superiority that reeks
of conceit and arrogance. John C. Maxwell


Your head is a living forest
full of song birds.
   E. E. Cummings: 









Dads are most ordinary men
turned into heroes, adventurers,
storytellers and singers of song.
Pam Brown


Don’t let the tall weeds
cast a shadow on the
beautiful flowers
in your garden.

Frogs have it made,
they get to eat
what bugs them.
Time’s fun when
you’re having flies!

Honolulu Pride Parade 15 OCT

A L O H A From Honolulu!

"Everyone loves a parade."
That's what "They" say,
and they just may be right.
First Time In Two Years!
From babes in arms,
to those in their second childhood,
something draws us in
to this ancient procession
with it's roots
in community,
And ritual.




Dogs do speak, but
only to those who
know how to listen.
    Orhan Pamuk



We are rarely proud
when we are alone.
Voltaire







One must either
 take an interest in 
the human situation 
or else parade
 before the void. 
    Jean Rostand 





Pride is a personal commitment.
It is an attitude which
separates excellence
from mediocrity.
William Blake





 I'm still passionately interested in what my fellow humans are up to. For me, a day spent monitoring the passing parade is a day well-spent. Garry Trudeau



Dogs are SO
uninhibited!
Carl Chopin



Those aren't real dogs
and I Don't Like It!

Love You!

When the tide gets high,
Sail on. You'll make it
safe to the shore... And all the hidden treasures
will be Yours! Chinonye J. Chidolue

Proud

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Every path,

every street in the world is your

walking meditation path.

Candid shot on the fly. 

I never want to make anyone uncomfortable,
though anything/anyone visible to the
public is legally fair game for a photo.

So I am expert at swinging
around like a tourist appearing to 
take random shots, 
grabbing a snap on the fly. . . 
occasionally yielding:
A Photograph. 

















VERY Proud of this young man.
Son of my good friends - Ohana really -
Genshu Price.

Dad Mike suggested that G collect deposit bottles
and cans to help fund his college. (G is 13) 
Well, Genshu took it to the extreme the way energetic, smart, young people do when supported. 

Bottles4College is a 501-c 
Nonprofit that has partners at schools,
markets, and restaurants around our island!

Mom Maria Price (a WONDERFUL friend and
incidentally EXCELLENT Oahu Realtor)
took this photo on Friday Oct 1
by the Queen Liliuokalani statue
at Hawaii's State Capitol after
Genshu was recognized with an
award by the legislature! 







Follow your path, 

and let the people talk.

Dante Alighieri




Pixie, get the dust buster!

Be proud of every scar

on your heart,

each one holds a

lifetime's worth of lessons.

Wallace Stegner

What Happened to Subtle?

A L  O  H  A !
P R I D E
And as he spoke of understanding, 
I looked up and saw the rainbow leap 
with flames of many colors over me.     
Black Elk










Gandhi & The Dalai Lama


A quiet mind is all you need. 
All else will happen rightly, once 
your mind is quiet. As the sun on rising 
makes the world active. . . In the light of 
calm and steady self-awareness, 
inner energies wake up 
and work miracles without 
any effort on your part
Nisargadatta Maharaj

Photography is a reality so subtle that 
it becomes more real than reality. 
Alfred Stieglitz














Old Waikiki Mural (Hotel Lobby)

It is how we think about, 
and how we treat 
those we disagree with,
that defines us as 
individuals, and as a society.
