Honolulu Big Town Little Wheels

A    L    O    H    A  !

Hawaii Was

" Right actions

 in the future 

are the best 

apologies

 for bad actions

 in the past. "

Tryon Edwards

Hawaii Is

Get a bicycle. 

You will certainly not regret it, 

if you live.

Mark Twain

Little Girls

" She who succeeds 

in gaining the mastery 

of the bicycle 

will gain the mastery

 of life. . . 

And so I found 

high moral uses 

in the bicycle

 and can commend it 

as a teacher 

without pulpit or creed. "

 Frances E. Willard,

How I Learned To Ride The Bicycle, 1895

Mother's Heart

“ And I realized 

when you look

 at your mother, 

you are looking at 

the purest love 

you will ever know. ” 

 Mitch Albom

 For One More Day

Parts of Honolulu are AnyTown

is always 

under construction. "

Celebrate Irritate

A    L    O    H    A  !

Story of the Big Town, Big Sky

"Who are my greatest
spiritual teachers?
Those who have
hurt me the most. "

Shirley Maclaine

But full of little stories: 
the last little house 
on a street in Waikiki

Glimpse of RED

Entire crimson head

“. . . your enemies are 

your best spiritual teachers 

because 

their presence provides 

you with the opportunity 

to enhance and develop 

tolerance, patience 

and understanding.  ” 

 Dalai Lama

If

 you start to notice

something that 

You Do

 -have often done-

But now 

you don't like it,
are

not proud of it --

Celebrate that regret!

It means that You

are growing.

This beats the hell

out of perfecting the

Story

of why you are 

Miserable,

and all beyond your 

own control, 

"Alas."

I prefer scenario #1

owning the jerk I am,

embracing the 

Less-Jerk

I am Becoming.

Perfection stifles

comparisons mere trifles

be ever Mindful;

Intimate

with Revival.

Your Friendly Jerk,

                                          Cloudia

" Love 
is the great 
miracle cure. 
Loving ourselves 
works miracles 
in our lives. "

Louise Hay

" So much has been said 
and sung of 
beautiful young girls, 
why doesn't somebody 
wake up 
to the beauty 
of old women? "


Harriet Beecher Stowe
