Wild Bird Wow

A   L   O   H   A  !
Research has shown how combining pictures and text enhances understanding, as the activities of reading and viewing activate different information processing systems within the brain. (Mayer R.E., Sims V.K.,1994). 














 The Capable Peli-CAN

Even the smallest changes 
in our daily routine 
can create the incredible ripple effects
that expand our vision of
what is possible.
Charles F. Glassman














I beg you take courage; 
the brave soul can 
mend even disaster.

Keep Calm. Pet Me. Carry On

A   L   O   H   A  !
    
United we stand;

to good use.
   Mokokoma Mokhonoana
















Calm mind brings inner strength and

Dalai Lama

You don't have to control your thoughts. 
You just have to stop letting them control you.

Take A Day

A   L   O   H   A  !

Each person deserves a day away 
in which no problems are confronted, 
no solutions searched for.  
Each of us needs to withdraw from the
cares which will not withdraw from us.
          Maya Angelou








Pumehana Street runs to the Mountains
Me ke aloha 
pumehana, 
With the warmth of my love
                                                                                    Link










Rest is not idleness, and 
to lie sometimes on the grass 
under trees on a summer's day,
listening to the murmur of the water, 
or watching the clouds float across the sky, 
is by no means a waste of time.
                     John Lubbock









A quiet secluded life in the country, 
with the possibility of being useful 
to people to whom it is easy to do good, 
and who are not accustomed 
to have it done to them; 
then work which one hopes 
may be of some use; 
then rest, nature, books, music, 
love for one's neighbor — 
such is my idea of happiness.
                     Leo Tolstoy


Love You,

Just Remember

A   L   O   H   A  !
 Do your little bit of good where you are; 
its those little bits of good put together 
that overwhelm the world.
           Desmond Tutu














 I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. It is the common fiber of life, the flame that heats our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives.
                       Elisabeth Kubler-Ross















 When words are both true and kind, 
they can change the world.
                 Buddha












 A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees.
               Amelia Earhart














Just remember: nothing lasts forever, 
change is the rule of life.
And the scariest demons of darkest night, 
fade in the glory of morning's 
good light. 
          Your Friend,
                                                 Cloudia

What We Do Now

A  L  O  H  A  !
It is only in our darkest hours 
that we may discover the 
true strength 
of the brilliant light within ourselves 
that can never, ever, be dimmed.
            Doe Zantamata










Is it OK to not panic? 
Is it OK to even be happy? 
 YES!  








In Fact: if you have the skill (yes) 
ability to remain calm, be patient, and to
show love, a smile, and 
reassurance to others, 
then 

YOU ARE EXACTLY WHAT IS NEEDED 
AT THIS TIME!













Don't be afraid to let your light shine. 
This is what it's for. 
There is a time to weep with others. 
This is the time to smile for them, 
to love them, to Live Aloha.






Morning Always Returns.
Every Storm Runs Out of Rain.
Our Important Job
is to remain calm,
wash hands.
Love One Another.

However long the night,

               African Proverb, Hausa Tribe










Hope is being able to see

Desmond Tutu









If we believe that tomorrow will be better, 
we can bear a hardship today.
          Thich Nhat Hanh















What oxygen is to the lungs, such 
   is hope to the meaning of life.     
        Emil Brunner













Pixie asked me if her memories of
our time in Marin County are a dream.
Sure they are, I told her, a dream we
got to live. Enjoy your garden,
your dreams, and your hopes.
We WILL emerge from this too!
