Pause Embrace

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If you want to make

peace with your enemy,

you have to work

with your enemy. Then

he becomes your partner.

Nelson Mandela

Rest and be kind,

you don’t have to

prove anything.

Jack Kerouac

Calmness is the

cradle of power.

Josiah Gilbert Holland

Peace is not the

absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it. Ronald Reagan

Hand in hand, let's leave behind
The hustle, bustle, and the grind. To our private, quiet, tropic place, Peace and healing
In pause embrace.

When things go wrong,

don't go with them.

Elvis Presley

BOTH Have The Right To Exist!

Pixie Challenge

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Dawn Patrol Surfer leaves the Beach to

Tourists after an epic session!

Barefoot, board in hand, I tread the sandy strand.

The waves first sight

My heart takes flight.

0 Hear the ocean's call!

Within the spiral opening leaf, A world of wonder lies, Where ancient secrets softly breathe, And mystic dreams arise.

Yesterday is only a dream, and tomorrow is but a vision. But today, well lived, makes every yesterday

a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore,

to this day. Ancient Sanskrit

Inspired by all beauty and mystery,

[And your comments]

Pixie knows that nature is infused

with sacred energy. Here she connects

with something larger than ourselves.

Pixie hopes to inspire us to embark

on our own mystical journeys.

She also wonders if WE can touch

our nose with our tongue!

The Compassion Cure

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Compassion will cure
more sins than
condemnation.
Henry Ward Beecher

Welcome the uninvited
to receive it's gift.  

Yellow yellow lucky fellow! 
Everybody is nicer to me

when I'm in yellow

Grace is the face 
that love wears when 
it meets imperfection.
         Joseph R. Cooke 

Nobody will stop you from creating. Do it tonight. Do it tomorrow. That is the way to make your soul grow.

In dreams, I wander

beneath your boughs, Cassia Rainbow Shower Tree, Where sunlight dances

through your leaves, And flowers cascade

a gentle sough.

Your roots run deep, your spirit strong, A testament to where you belong. In your embrace I find my peace, And all my worldly worries cease.

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The more you spend your time in the ordinary streets, the more extraordinary things you will learn!

Faith is not a question of the existence or non-existence of God. It is believing that love

without reward is valuable.
Emmanuel Levinas

Keep your faith in
all beautiful things; in
the sun when it is hidden,
in the Spring when
it is gone.
Roy R. Gilson

Don't force your children into your ways, for they were created for a time different from your own.
Plato

You live longer
once you realize that
any time spent
being unhappy
is wasted.

Cowards are cruel, but the brave love mercy and delight to save. John Gay

Some people care too much.

I think it's called love. A.A. Milne
