Up With The Monkey

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Monkeys Up The Ramp

Some people just talk through Life.
They talk, talk, talk and Life is over.
Some people walk through Life.
They walk, walk, walk and
arrive at their Destination.
RVM



The foolish seek happiness
in the distance; the wise grows it
underfoot. James Openheim



Happiness is never stopping
to think if you are. Palmer Sondreal



When this old world
starts getting me down And people are just too much
for me to face I climb way up to the
top of the stairs And all my cares just
drift right into space
Carol King



Try to keep your soul young
and quivering right up
to old age.
   George Sand

Learn to see the world as a place of becoming. Things that bother you are merely still in play.


Regard every annoyance as passing.
It is.

blooming outside our
windows today.
