Revelation

A  L  O  H  A !

Cease trying to work everything out 

with your minds.

It will get you nowhere.

Manu means bird in Hawaiian

Rather live by intuition 

and inspiration

and let your 

whole life be 

revelation.

Over The Rainbow in Waikiki

A  L  O  H  A !

"Don't leave Hawaii.

You can never come back."

That's what the 

local people say.

The lure of owning a home, 

of better wages, the heat. . . . 

It all tempts Hawaii residents

to go California, or 

Vegas, or Seattle.

But once you are there ,

Hawaii calls 

in a million and one ways. 

The warmth of her people, 

the technicolor skies and 

mountains,not to mention 

Hawaii's food and music!

All have a way of calling 

in your dreams

like a siren song.

I heard that song for almost 

four years in California.

And coming back ISN'T easy!

But today I write to you 

from my Waikiki

of almost 30 years. 

Home Again.

Brother IZ Surfboard

I will never leave my friends, 
family and islands again.
Welcome back!
We are in Waikiki together once again.
Truly. Somewhere over the rainbow.

Mahalo for your visit. 
You are MOST welcome here!

All You Can Do

A  L  O  H  A !

A friend has the magic power

 to remind you who you are and 

to call you home to yourself.

The only thing you can do 

about other people is to love them. 

[Aloha them] 

Learned from older Hawaiians

Who is modeling the 

kind humility of the

truly confident & 

compassionate 

person today?

Gratitude

Dissolves fear.

A smile

Thins the veil

Between Heaven & Earth,

Between souls.

Idealists Even Better

Hawaiian Skies

A  L  O  H  A !

“Hawai'i is not truly the idyllic paradise of popular songs--islands of love and tranquility, where nothing bad ever happens. It was and is a place where people work and struggle, live and die, as they do the world over.” 

                  Alan Brennert, Honolulu

 “Summer in Honolulu brings the sweet smell of mangoes, guava, and passionfruit, ripe for picking; it arbors the streets with the fiery red umbrellas of poinciana trees and decorates the sidewalks with the pink and white puffs of blossoming monkeypods. Cooling trade winds prevail all summer, bringing what the old Hawaiians called makani 'olu' 'olu--- "fair wind".” 

  Alan Brennert, Honolulu

“A road need not be paved in gold

 to find treasures at its end.”

Wake Up Plan

A  L  O  H  A !

When you first wake up, 

do not start your to do list. 

Do not replay

what happened yesterday

unless it was MARVELOUS,

and then only for a few seconds.

Because

before 30 seconds have passed

remember to feel gratitude

for simply waking up.

This sets the mood

for your entire day.

And life is made of

days. And moods.

This quickly becomes

a happy habit. 

If you fill yourself up 

from the beginning of the day 

with beautiful things that you notice, 

that you appreciate, that have 

real value to you, 

there will be no room 

for lesser emotions to intrude. 

Listen to the birds, hug your family 

and remember what really matters.

Problem hunting, and 

arguing is for suckers.

᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳧᳨

Thank YOU

When things are at their worst,

is the very best time to be 

sure that you are at your best!
