Eerie Beauty of October

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Great leaders

invite us on a journey




When you see
a fork in the road
take it!
Yogi Berra







  
-There's a kind of eerie
beauty to your profile.
Yasunari Kawabata



A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit
and a violin; what else
does a person need
to be happy.
Einstein



To live an extraordinary life
you'll have to go through
adversity to become
an extraordinary person.
The key is to see your
challenges as opportunities.
Use them to get better,
not bitter. Remember,
the best is yet to come!
Jon Gordon

With a good friend
the hours are short.
Basque proverb 



 Take heart. If you are alive today, You are a warrior
of the soul. 




I will wear no label
but my name




Sometimes in the morning,
when it's a good surf,
I go out there,
and I don't feel like
it's a bad world.
Kary Mullis


When the bee
comes to your house,
let her have beer;
you may want to visit the
bee's house some day.
   Congo Proverb



I just have one question for you.
Are you a stronger, better
person than you were
back in 2015?
We have all had
opportunities to clarify
our behaviours and beliefs.
What do YOU think?

Must Free

A L O H A From Honolulu!


We must free ourselves of
the hope that the sea
will ever rest.
We must learn to
sail in high winds.
    Aristotle Onassis



The Passionate Lovers *

When we are together,
I can see Heaven
from here!






When I forget how
talented God is,
I look to the sea.
 Whoopi Goldberg






On this path let the
heart be your guide.
Rumi



Me and my shadow

A silly goose is just
a swan in disguise. 






Being kind to yourself isn't
about ignoring your weaknesses.
It's about giving yourself
permission to learn
from your mistakes.
We grow by embracing
shortcomings, not
punishing them.
      Adam Grant

Observing Together

The right time is any time that one is still so
lucky as to have. Henry James












Shell Ginger

Nurture your mind

  Disraeli



You don't drown by
falling in the water;
you drown by
staying there. Edwin Louis Cole




Life Grants Us The Power To Be Anything We Want To Be. Why do so many of us want to be angry know-it-alls?

Only You

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The moon does not fight.
It attacks no one.
It does not worry. It
does not try to crush others.

It keeps to its course, but by its
very nature, it gently influences.
What other body could pull an
entire ocean from shore to shore?

The moon is faithful to its
nature and its power is
never diminished.
  Deng Ming-Dao





As for me I will follow
the path of the pink bunnies. Magenta Periwinkle




How often, I wonder,
do things and people we see every day carry wonders that we never notice?



Nothing can bring you
peace but yourself.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Dare To

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Dare to Believe in
Your Happiness. 



Hope is a helium balloon.
It is a wish lantern set out
into the dark sky of night. Sharon Weil




The great poets have 
sympathized with the people. 
They have uttered in all ages 
the human cry. Unbought 
by gold, unawed by power, 
they have lifted high the 
torch that illuminates
 the world.
       Robert Green Ingersoll



Humor is in fact an essential element in the mirth of creation. God wants to prod us into taking things a bit more lightly. Pope Benedict XVI

The infinitely little have
a pride infinitely great.

Honolulu Pride Parade 15 OCT

A L O H A From Honolulu!

"Everyone loves a parade."
That's what "They" say,
and they just may be right.
First Time In Two Years!
From babes in arms,
to those in their second childhood,
something draws us in
to this ancient procession
with it's roots
in community,
And ritual.




Dogs do speak, but
only to those who
know how to listen.
    Orhan Pamuk



We are rarely proud
when we are alone.
Voltaire







One must either
 take an interest in 
the human situation 
or else parade
 before the void. 
    Jean Rostand 





Pride is a personal commitment.
It is an attitude which
separates excellence
from mediocrity.
William Blake





 I'm still passionately interested in what my fellow humans are up to. For me, a day spent monitoring the passing parade is a day well-spent. Garry Trudeau



Dogs are SO
uninhibited!
Carl Chopin



Those aren't real dogs
and I Don't Like It!

When the tide gets high,
Sail on. You'll make it
safe to the shore... And all the hidden treasures
will be Yours! Chinonye J. Chidolue
