Quarters and Pennies

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Things were launching
themselves from
the ornate sunburst spires,
glittering leech shapes made
of shifting planes of light.
There were hundreds of them,
rising in a whirl, their
movements random as
windblown paper
down dawn streets.
William Gibson



 Joy is uncaused and arises
from within as
the joy of Being.
It is an essential part of
the inner state of peace,
the state that has been called
the peace of God. It is
your natural state,
not something that you need
to work hard for or
struggle to attain.
Eckhart Tolle



If you surrendered
to the air,
you could ride it.
  Toni Morrison




It's the ride of life
the journey from
here to there, living and
loving every moment like
we have none to spare.
Jess "Chief" Brynjulson



Be careful who you
call your friends.
I'd rather have
four quarters than
one hundred pennies.
    Al Capone




Be softer with you.
You are a breathing thing.
A memory to someone.
A home to a life.
   Nayyirah Waheed

Art & Science

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Chinese New Year/
Lunar New Year
is my favorite time! Photo is
from 2019. This year, again, 
will be observed more quietly.
But I WILL hear dancing lions
one way of another! Perhaps
even feed them lucky dollars.
Tuesday, February 1st, 2022
begins the 
Year  Of  The  Tiger!




After a period of rain & wind
these glorious skies
uplift my mood and soul!
Spring Feelings. . .









I was cursed or blessed with
a prolonged adolescence;
I arrived at some seeming maturity
when I was past thirty. It was only
in my forties that I really began
to feel young. By then
I was ready for it.
By this time I had
lost many illusions,
but fortunately not
my enthusiasm, nor
the joy of living, nor my
unquenchable curiosity.
   Henry Miller






Even if you cover the
whole world with darkness,
you can never stop the
sun from rising.
     Debasish Mridha







Living is an art,
it's not a science. You make it up as you go along. Al Hirschfeld

Taking Notes

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sunrise paints the sky
with pinks and the
sunset with peaches.
Cool to warm.
So is the progression
from childhood to old age. Vera Nazarian



A true change of 
heart is much more 
powerful than a 
change of mind.
           Kyle Bryant






Greet this day 
the way it has 
greeted you; with 
open arms and 
endless possibility. 
        Steve Maraboli




I will love the light for 
it shows me the way, yet 
I will endure the darkness 
because it shows me the stars.
             Og Mandino 









The rough must always 
accompany the smooth. 
Without one or the other one 
learns nothing about oneself.
              Solange Nicole















When your heart speaks 
take good notes.
           Judith Campbell

Yes We Have Waited

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Next time a sunrise
steals your breath or
a meadow of flowers leave
you speechless,
remain that way...



...Say nothing, and listen as Heaven whispers, do you like it? I did it just for you. Max Lucado




To stand by the beds
at sunrise and see
the flowers awake is
a heavenly delight.
Celia Thaxter


Every day a million miracles begin at sunrise! Eric Jerome Dickey



Crown & Commoner
African Tulip Crown
Commoner Weed.
Both Beautiful!


We can only appreciate
the miracle of a sunrise
if we have waited
in the darkness. Sapna Reddy

Lucky We're Still Here

A L O H A From Honolulu!
I close my eyes to old ends. And open my heart to
new beginnings. Nick Frederickson




We are adrift, and the
thinnest breeze
may blow us
where it will.
Rachel Hartman











Hard work can open
doors so wide,
it later seems as
though they had
never been closed.
   Margaret Renkl




We do have a tendency
to complain rather than
celebrating who we are.
I learned at my
mother’s knee it’s better to
appreciate what’s happening…
I think we kind of
talk ourselves into
the negative sometimes.
   Betty White








Stop being afraid of
what could go wrong,
and start being excited
about what could go right.
Tony Robbins



Change is like that:
you are no longer
where you were;
you are not yet
where you will get;
you are nowhere exactly.
 Lionel Shriver



It only SEEMS
that way!


Give your all
in the Here and Now,
with all of your heart.
Virginia Toole

Fresh Start Ville

A L O H A From Honolulu!

That last page turned
is a perfect excuse to
write a whole new book.
Toni Sorenson



Winter Wet Waikiki
Then:
S U N S H I N E !



All great changes are
preceded by chaos.
 Deepak Chopra



There are no rules
of architecture for a
castle in the clouds.
  G. K. Chesterton








Have the courage to follow
your heart and intuition.
They somehow know
what you truly
want to become.
Steve Jobs
