A Couple of Secret Tips

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Whatever comes,
let it come.
What stays,
let it stay.
What goes,
let it go.
  H. W. L. Poonja







I am determined to be
cheerful and happy
in whatever situation
I may find myself...



...For I have learned that
the greater part of
our misery or unhappiness
is determined not by
our circumstance but
by our disposition.
   Martha Washington 




There is only one way
to happiness and that
is to cease worrying about
things which are beyond
the power of our will.
    Epictetus 



True happiness is...
to enjoy the present,
without anxious
dependence upon
the future.
   Seneca

Make Your Mind an Ocean

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Morning Circle
I'm not buying the
doom and gloom.
I'm investing in faith,
hope and love. Jon Gordon



Is there a place
you can go
to break away
for a little while?
If you haven't yet
built your tree house, it's
never too late to start.
   Gina Greenlee



Birds chirping around you
is a beautiful realization that
life in incredibly good.
Let this sound be
gentle break
in your routine.

When your mind is narrow, 
small things agitate
you very easily. 
Make your mind
an ocean.
 Lama Yeshe




O radiant Dark!
O darkly fostered ray!
Thou hast a joy too
deep for shallow Day.
  George Eliot








After all this time
of listening to people
talk with masks on,
I finally understand
what Charlie Brown's
teacher was saying!

Just For Today

 A L O H A From Honolulu!
Each morning we

are born again.

What we do today

is what matters most.

Buddha







Just for today,

I will not worry.
Just for today,

I will not be angry.




Just for today,

I will do

my work honestly.
Just for today,

I will give thanks for

my many blessings.






Just for today, 

I will be kind to my neighbor 

and show my gratitude

to every living thing.

The Best Mentor

A L O H A From Honolulu!
When young,

older people look

like wrecks.

When mature,

younger people look

half baked.









For years I have noticed

that "what to wear"

"what to eat" "what NOT

to say" have all regularly

popped unbidden

into my head.







So I began to go

with the outfit

that popped into

my mind.

That became a habit.







Then I began applying it

to other things. In other

words, I started to heed

the suggestions

that seemed to

present themselves.


It occurs to me

that all my prudence

and foresight

have produced as much

trouble for me,

as successes.


Every major New

Direction, has been made

[when examined closely]

by persistent "hunch"

hunches that keep repeating

and finding complementary

echoes seemingly everywhere.






Perhaps, angels are always

speaking, directing, aiding.

Be alert. Be aware

of what presents

to your fascination

unbidden.

Such lies the way

to your best

and your bliss.




Of course, we all know 

from cartoons that 

we each have a devil, 

as well as an angel. 

That's why we have two shoulders. 

[And for wings later].

It comes to choice. 

What am I choosing 

over and over again,

and where does that lead? 

Which self do I feed? 

Is that the person

that I WANT to be? 

Choices. 

We are all free 

to make new ones!

Off The Tourist Trail

A L O H A From Honolulu

Yesterday is not 

ours to recover, but 

tomorrow is ours 

to win or lose.    
 
              Lyndon B. Johnson

Little minds are tamed 

and subdued by 

misfortune; but 

great minds 

rise above them.

Nonsense shouts louder 

as more truth emerges. 

Pay it no mind.







Multitude

A fence to wisdom 

is silence.

      Akiba Ben Joseph






Infinity

Angels descending, 

bring from above, 

echoes of mercy, 

whispers of love.

One & Only

Angels come to us 

disguised.

Calmness Is Power

 A L O H A From Honolulu!
Mindfully practicing authenticity 

during our most 

soul-searching struggles 

is how we invite grace, 

joy and gratitude 

into our lives. 

Brene Brown





In order to 

understand the world, 

one has to turn away 

from it on occasion. 

      Albert Camus






Pre Covid Shot
Mastering self-control, 

the act of restraining one's 

emotions is the true 

key to success. 

    Timothy Pina







Self-control is strength. 

Calmness is power.
