Today I Will Find

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Morning Moon

Today I will find

something beautiful.

Delicate pink blossoms

on a cherry tree.

The dove resting

near the lemon buds.

Sunbeams smiling

from sky to earth.

Smiling on me.

Eileen Granfors

Sailin' 'round the world

in a dirty gondola Oh, to be back in the

land of Coca-Cola! Bob Dylan

After the sharp-eyed jay

and the roaring lion,

peace will come on

dove's gentle wing.

  Erin Hunter

The eye and soul are caressed in the contemplation of form and colour. The subtle changes–transitions that are like music – There is an immediate

sensuous appeal!

   John F. Carlson

I got the eye of the tiger,

Louder, louder than a lion

'Cause I am a champion,

and you're gonna

hear me roar

This One Here

A  L  O  H  A !

"On the other side of this darkness, 

a new day will slowly dawn."

          Corban Addison

"Today is a brand new day. 

Forget about yesterday. 

It does not matter. 

Forget about tomorrow it will 

take care of itself. 

Concentrate on this day. 

Make it the best ever. "   

   Mary-Frances Winters

Honolulu Early Night

"This evening is as brief 

as the twinkling of an eye 

yet such twinklings are 

what eternity is made of."     

      Fred Rogers

"When you arise in the morning, 

think of what a precious privilege 

it is to be alive - 

to breathe, to think, 

to enjoy, to love."

Sky Cat

"The sun rose slowly, 

like a fiery furball 

coughed up uneasily 

onto a sky-blue carpet 

by a giant unseen cat."

         Michael McGarel

West Marin Calif.

“Go outside. Don’t tell anyone 

and don’t bring your phone. 

Start walking and keep walking 

until you no longer know the 

road like the palm of your hand, 

because we walk the same roads 

day in and day out, to 

the bus and back home 

and we cease to see. 

 I dare you to walk where 

you have not yet walked and 

I dare you to notice. 

 Just be, whatever you are with 

whatever you have, and 

realise that that is 

enough to be happy. 

There’s a whole world 

out there, 

right outside your window. 

You’d be a fool to miss it.” 

      Charlotte Eriksson

“The struggles we endure today 

will be the ‘good old days’ 

we laugh about tomorrow.” 

            Aaron Lauritsen

The Big Job

A  L  O  H  A !

"Fairy tales are 

more than true

not because they tell us 

that dragons exist but 

because they tell us that 

dragons can be beaten."

              Neil Gaiman

"Somewhere between the 

start of the trail and 

the end is the mystery: 

why we choose to walk.” 

              Unknown

"Kindness is like snow - it 

beautifies everything it covers."

We all want to make that Big Start;

That New Beginning. We want to do

Spring Cleaning. But it's overwhelming.

That's why you don't do it weekly.

We see the entire elephant

and feel good about deciding 

to eat it later. Definitely. Gonna do it.

Just not today. But you are just paying

the 'Vig'* on your anxiety and your life.

Bargaining with the boogeyman.*  

I had a boss who used to say:

'Just do something today to move

the mission, the contract, the pile of 

tasks. The day you leave here, your

In Box will not be empty. That has

to be OK. Just do one thing today,

with all the routine & house keeping.'

Just do the thing you notice,

the thing at hand.

Thank YOU

Sunlight On Your Face

A  L  O  H  A !

Don't judge each day 

by the harvest 

you reap, but by 

the seeds you plant. 

            Robert Louis Stevenson

“There is strong shadow 

where there is much light.” 

                Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

[like politically in my US?]

" It must have been cold 

there in my shadow, to 

never have sunlight 

on your face."

        Bette Midler
