Naturally Become

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sunset Reflection

We're all a little weird.

And life is a little weird.

And when we find someone

whose weirdness is

compatible with ours,

we join up with them

and fall into mutually

satisfying weirdness

— and call it love —

true love.

Robert Fulghum

you explain pain

for no gain.

 I don't give a damn about

what you know or

what you do if

you can't be kind. 

Talk to me so that

I might know

who you are.

Be naked in the

vocabulary of kindness

Sandy Carlson

A joyful life is an

individual creation that

cannot be copied

from a recipe.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

The sky is your canvas

and your imagination

is your paintbrush.

2013 

When you realize

where you come from,

you naturally

become tolerant,

disinterested,* amused,

kindhearted as

a grandmother,

dignified as a king.

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Some buildings are new,

some buildings are old

and some buildings

aren't there anymore,

but flowers, leaves

& light are eternal.

My life is a roller coaster

on golden wheels;

IT IS NEVER GOING TO

BE PERFECT but

I am glad for

the perfect moments

For a dark street,

sunshine is most welcome;

for a wounded soul,

love is most welcome!

The value of things is

not the time they last.

That is why there are

unforgettable moments

and unique people!

I viewed my fellow man

not as a fallen angel,

but as a risen ape.

We keep moving forward,

opening new doors, and

doing new things, because

we’re curious and

curiosity keeps leading

us down new paths.

Open Doors

A L O H A From Honolulu!

There is another alphabet,

whispering from every leaf,

singing from every river,

shimmering from every sky.

The world is always open,

waiting to be discovered.

    Dejan Stojanovic

[Thank You Karen Link]

When one door is closed,

don’t you know,

another is open.

 Bob Marley

When one door closes,

another opens; but we

often look so long and

so regretfully upon

the closed door that

we do not see the one

which has opened for us.

   Alexander Graham Bell

Follow your bliss and

the universe will open ‪doors

where there were only walls.

Joseph Campbell

Things taste sweet

when you are grateful,

Stolen grapes are

always sour.

Well-being can be built—

and the best building blocks

are good, warm relationships.

Queen of Hibiscus seemed wide as a plate!

One should handle

all beings as if they

What a Full Breath LOOKS like

Breathe deeply, until sweet air extinguishes the burn

of fear in your lungs

and every breath is

a beautiful refusal to

become anything less

than infinite.

Refreshment Reflections

Love is the greatest

refreshment in life.

    Picasso

The memory of things gone

is important to a jazz musician.

Things like old folks singing

in the moonlight

in the backyard on

a hot night or something

said long ago.

   Louis Armstrong

Things that touch us

 when we are very young 

have a special resonance

 life-long; Even more so

in mature years.

- but the chief of these is love.

Just A Shoestring

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sublimate or postpone

your true Desires & opinions

long enough, and you

could well lose track

of what You really want,

and of yourself. 

No One Can Steal

Your Joy.

It is in

Your power.

Youth trades pleasure

Till the full moon rise;

Age shares comfort

For they have

become Wise.

Don't play the saxophone.

Let it play you. Charlie Parker

Would love to play WITH a shoestring ANYtime!

You can play a shoestring

if you're sincere.

Smile Down Moon

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If we look at the world

with a love of life,

the world will reveal

its beauty to us.

 Daisaku Ikeda 

Civilization is just

a slow process of

learning to be kind.

  Charles L. Lucas

An ongoing process

 

Matter is not

lacking in magic,

matter is magic.

 Terence McKenna

We awaken in others 

the same attitude 

of mind -

- that we hold 

toward them. 

                      Elbert Hubbard

[Some, you just need to love,

despite how they act,

while you avoid them]

I think that wherever

your journey takes you,

there are new gods

waiting there, with

divine patience -

and laughter.
