Good News

A L O H A From Honolulu!
 How can I claim
to understand another
when I am a 
mystery to myself?






Spathodea campanulata,
commonly known as the African tulip tree

Respond intelligently even 
to unintelligent treatment.
                Lao Tzu 



The lovely flowers embarrass me,
They make me regret
I am not a bee.
Emily Dickinson

Word are like bees–
some create honey and
others leave a sting.

The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot. Michael Altshuler

Call For The Grandest

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Call for the grandest
of all earthly spectacles,
what is that? It is
the sun going to his rest.
Thomas de Quincey



Looking back over the years,
sure there are things I
would do differently.
But that's different from regret
because I'm glad I do see
those situations & people
differently now. It's called
growth and perspective.
And it also makes me patient
with others. Because sometimes
they just don't see it yet.
But they will get there
as I have, gratefully.



The best people don't
try to instruct you. They
just invite you to walk
along if you like. And
there's something so
interesting about them that
you do want to walk

with them a while. . .



If you walk the footsteps
of a stranger, you'll learn
things you never knew
you never knew
Walt Disney



Every positive thought
is a silent prayer which will change your life. Bryant McGill

Gerry Lopez

Walking is good for

Noble deeds and hot baths
are the best cures

Happiness is a process.
Not an unwavering
state of rest

Joy We Take

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Life is not a pleasure cruise.
We often sail on stormy seas.
But that's the glory of it,
gaining our sea legs and
staying the course.




There are moments
of great beauty,
days, sometimes longer.
Growing confidence
in our sea skills
takes satisfaction from
even the stormiest days.
Nothing but smooth sailing
would kill our spirit.







The joy we take in growing
makes the sunny days
more beautiful and
the storms bearable.




Let's sail on together
in our vast flotilla.
Angels like seabirds
swarm above us
and know the way
to safe harbor.
Let's follow them.



Turn your face to the sun and
the shadows fall behind you. Maori Proverb

I get up every morning and
it's going to be a great day.
You never know when
it's going to be over so
I refuse to have a bad day.

elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my

Just For You

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




It was only a sunny smile,
and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and
made the day worth living. F. Scott Fitzgerald


Remember You are stronger than you think. Your heart is bigger than you know.



Pause- For an Angel To Pass





Somehow, always, everything is okay when it's just the two of us alone together. Nina Lane

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

We have seasons when we flourish

and seasons when the leaves fall from us, revealing our bare bones. Given time, they grow again. Katherine May




Always wear a smile.
The gift of life will then
be yours to give.
