Not A Problem

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If it’s not a health problem,
it’s not a problem.
Don Rutberg

 

If a lot of small people,

in a lot of small places,

do a lot of small things,

they can change the

face of the world.

African saying

found on the Berlin Wall

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. Thich Nhat Hanh

What wisdom can you find

that is greater than kindness?

Rousseau

Smiles are the soul's party dresses.

In It As The Butterfly

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It is eternity now.

I am in the midst of it.

It is about me in the sunshine;

I am in it as the butterfly

in the light-laden air.

Nothing has to come;

it is now. Now

is eternity; now is

the immortal life. Richard Jefferies

The art of art,

the glory of expression

 and the sunshine of the

light of letters

is simplicity.     

 Walt Whitman

Collaboration is the

opposite

of capitulation

The soul must uphold itself

like the sun. Let us

labour to make the heart

grow larger as we become older,

as the spreading oak

gives more shelter. Richard Jefferies

 Love unveils the

beauty of all things. Francois Couperin

I'm a very interior person.

I love silence. I revel in it.

I'm happy that way.

Moment Lasts Surprising

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We are each gifted in a

unique and important way.

It is our privilege and our adventure

to discover our own special light.

Mary Dunbar

A moment lasts

all of a second,

but the memory

lives on forever.

It's surprising how
much of memory
is built around things
unnoticed at the time

A common person marvels
at uncommon things.
A wise person marvels
at the commonplace.

Never Lose

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Never lose an opportunity

of seeing anything beautiful, 

for beauty is God's handwriting.

   Ralph Waldo Emerson

Me and my excavator

I have never been 

especially impressed
 by the heroics of people
 who are convinced they are 
about to change the world. 
I am more awed by those 
who struggle to make
 one small difference 
after another.
  Ellen Goodman

Moon Rise Off North Shore Oahu by Mike Price

As far back as the 19th century,

Jewish storekeepers were virtually

the only Southern merchants who

addressed black customers as

'Mr.' and 'Mrs.' and permitted

them to try on clothing.

    Howard Sachar, 

        Author and professor of Modern History

     at George Washington University.

When we begin to think

about our angels,

they begin to

manifest themselves.

Transform the Destination

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Nothing is stronger than

a small hope that

doesn't give up

Matt Haig

 

The moment one gives 

close attention to 

any thing, even a blade of grass 

it becomes a mysterious, 

awesome, indescribably 

magnificent world 

in itself.

           Henry Miller

 You don't take

a photograph, 

you make it.

         Ansel Adams

The journey transforms
the destination.
Peter Morville

With years and experience comes

a certain understanding of human

frailty as we see our own.

Our last best chance to

wise up, love our neighbor,

and become a human being

before our opportunity is passed.

Honored Guest

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We need to give each other

the space to grow, to be

ourselves, to exercise our diversity.

We need to give each other space so

that we may both give and receive

such beautiful things as ideas,

openness, dignity, joy,

healing, and inclusion. Max De Pree

The sharp thorn often

produces delicate roses.

Ovid

Texture, not volume,

is the key to the wondrous. Anthony Lane

Not what we have but what we enjoy, constitutes

our abundance. Epicurus

You are not a beggar

at the table of life.

You are the honored guest.
