Steps

A L O H A From Honolulu!

There is, they say, a crowded highway to Hell, but speak of the stairway to Heaven.


What lovely steps! Pause as long As you wish.

Take a good look

Around

At your memories.


How Far You've Come!




Ignore the highway traffic.
Come up.
Come up

In love.




The Flower Book by
Edward Burne-Jones
is a series of 38 round watercolours,
each about six inches across, painted
from 1882 to 1898. The paintings do
not depict flowers; rather, they were
inspired by the flowers' names.
Burne-Jones called them
"a series of illustrations to
the Names of Flowers".
Wikipedia



Ah, the patter of little feet
 around the house. 
There's nothing 
like having a 
midget 
for a butler.

A L O H A From Honolulu!

good, and dwell as
little as possible on the dark and the base. Richard Cecil

public relations for
what we believe in.

Meaning Gift

A L O H A From Honolulu!


The meaning of life
is to find your gift.
The purpose of life is
to give it away. Pablo Picasso





Advice I would like to
give my younger self?
Worry less. Appreciate more!




Foil surfing (or surf foiling) is the sport of riding a
surfboard which has a hydrofoil attached...
This allows the surfboard to fly above the water.
The surfer is essentially surfing the foil
but riding the board. Foil surfing offers a
whole new edge and excitement to surfing.

Be careful not to act like the
people who made you feel bad





Love is but a song we sing Fear's the way we die You can make the mountains ring Or make the angels cry Though the bird is on the wing And you may not know why Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another
right now Chet Powers
