Morning People of Waikiki

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Be willing to be a beginner
every single morning.
Meister Eckhart




In the garden of my soul,
there blooms a lavender field.
Anonymous



The thoughts of the morning
become the blessings
for the day.
Lailah Gifty Akita



Just one small positive
thought in the morning can
change your whole day.
  Dalai Lama




The more in harmony
you are with the flow of
your own existence,
the more magical
life becomes.
Adyashanti



Keep the dream alive:
Hit the snooze button.
Punit Ghadge

The compass rose is nothing
but a star with an infinite
number of rays pointing
in all directions.

It is the one true and perfect
symbol of the universe.

And it is the one most
accurate symbol of you.

Spread your arms in an embrace,
throw your head back, and
prepare to receive and send
coordinates of being. For,
at last you know—you are
the navigator, the captain,
and the ship.

Rare High Surf

On Hawaii's South shores
A L O H A From Honolulu!
Oahu's NORTH Shore is famous for surf,
But THIS is South Shore Waikiki yesterday.
Shot on my normal morning walk.

Sometimes in the morning,
when it's a good surf,
I go out there, and
I don't feel like
it's a bad world.
   Kary Mullis






Now, as we stand
three feet apart
and stare at each other,
I feel the full distance
that comes with spending
so much time apart,
a moment filled with
the electricity of a
first meeting and the
uncertainty of strangers.
 Marie Lu




Also A MAJOR GOOD Mango Season!

People are too complicated
to have simple labels.
   Philip Pullman




All the air you'll ever need
is in the boredom of your life.
But the magic is in
the miniscule mundane.
Jason Reynolds




Never love anyone
who treats you
like you're ordinary.
Oscar Wilde

Cloudy Beach Beauty

A L O H A From Honolulu!


But isn’t it terrific
when you’re with someone
who can bring out
your best self?
Robyn Carr,
                 "Four Friends"






Kindness & Happiness
travel together.








Inhabiting the present
moment, fully
aware and grateful,
inoculates you
against worry. 






Political divisions
are dogmatic mazes.
Go higher to see
the whole picture.







I almost wish we were
butterflies and liv'd but
three summer days -
three such days with you
I could fill with more
delight than fifty
common years
could ever contain.
 John Keats








Never lose your joy!
The picture is bigger
than any of us
can comprehend.
All we can do is
value each other and
enjoy our lives.
To treat others with
love is a potent
response to hate
Just do what you can
where you are.





Have a heart.
Just protect it from
breaking which
helps no one.

Don't You Get Weary

 A   L   O   H   A  !


Sometimes, flying 

feels too godlike 

to be attained by man. 

Sometimes, 

the world from above seems 

too beautiful, too wonderful, 

too distant for human eyes to see.     


                                  Charles A. Lindbergh

🛪



Aviation is proof that
 
given the will, we have
 
the capacity to achieve
 
the impossible.    
 

Eddie Rickenbacker












Distant Dreams of Distant Places

Sweet is the memory 

of distant friends! 

Like the mellow rays of 

the departing sun -

            Washington Irving

Surfboards & Vehicles








Ironically, when we own the 

shadow aspects of our self 

and put down our masks - 

this is when we become 

truly lovable.

We're Home Now, Pixie!

Walk together, children, 

don't you get weary,

walk together, children, 

don't you get weary.

walk together, children, 

don't you get weary,

there's a great camp meeting 

in the promised land.

We're gonna walk and never tire,

walk and never tire,

walk and never tire,

there's a great camp meeting 

in the promised land!

Young & Old - Near & Far

A   L   O   H   A  !
Most of the shadows 

of this life are caused

by our standing in 

one's own sunshine.

Ralph Waldo Emerson










Bon Dancing Last Summer. Link
Sunshine is delicious, 

rain is refreshing, 

wind braces us up, 

snow is exhilarating; 

there is really no such 

thing as bad weather, 

only different kinds 

of good weather.     

John Ruskin









If you spend 

your whole life waiting 

for the storm, you'll 

never enjoy the sunshine.

Morris West







There is no investment 

you can make which will 

pay you so well as 

the effort to scatter 

sunshine and good cheer 

through your establishment.

      Orison Swett Marden








 The smaller the creature,

the bolder its spirit.

Suzy Kassem

Soul Sense

A    L    O    H    A  !
Most people know 

the physical senses, but 

a lot of people don’t know 

the soul’s senses: 

empathy, trust, intuition, 

love and harmony.

Steven Aitchison









Opportunities are often 

missed. . .









 . . .when we 

constantly focus on 

our problems. 

       Steven Aitchison












Hawaii's Lifeline   Link
Growing up, 

books were my lifeline, 

and I owe a debt 

to those writers that 

can never be repaid. 

They saved my sanity 

and gave me a world 

I could escape to. 

 If I can pay that 

forward to 

another person, 

that's all I ask. 

Sherrilyn Kenyon










Without friends 

no one would 

choose to live, 

though he had 

all other goods.

     Aristotle










Remember:

Lasting Happiness

like wonderful, 

warm donuts,

must be made fresh 

every hour.


Keeping Calm, 

taking a beat, is 

a radically

important act.
