We Are Contra
A L O H A !
Someone said
Every day unnoticed
we are helped
in a million ways.
Still we get to
"do it ourselves" in
an enduring mystery
of our being.
If every prayer
was answered in a
predictable way
then it wouldn't
be a prayer.
It would be
a transaction.
that every prayer
is heard, and
is answered.
But sometimes
the answer is "No"
for our own good.
we are helped
in a million ways.
Still we get to
"do it ourselves" in
an enduring mystery
of our being.
We are mysterious beings
who are often quite
predictable.
Apparent contradictions
appear near the source
of great truths.

Plays Soft 0n Her Flute
A L O H A !
How can I claim
to understand another
when I am a
mystery to myself?

"The wall is silence,
the grass is sleep,
Tall trees of peace
their vigil keep,
- And the Fairy of Dreams
with moth-wings furled
Plays soft on her flute
to the drowsy world."

“If you can't
change your fate,
change your attitude.”

Nothing is Something
A L O H A !

but it does not wash
out the spots. "

says Hello. So,
hooray for
speech therapy.”
Emo Philips
“Most people don't
bother about their
friends in the
vegetable kingdom.”
Frank Zappa
but it does not wash
out the spots. "
African Proverb, Ashanti, Ghana
"We have lost the art
of doing nothing, of
shutting out the background
noise and distractions,
of slowing down and
simply being alone
with our thoughts."
