Transparent And Gentle

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Nourish the mind like
you would your body.
The mind cannot survive
on junk food.
Jim Rohn

Happiness is like soap bubbles.

It comes in small fragile doses,

transparent and gentle, that you

can’t catch, or hold forever.

You have to learn to recognize

the moment, to embrace it

and when the bubble pops

and the moment is over,

to choose whether to

remember it or not.
The miserable people are

the ones who think that

happiness is a permanent state.

They waste half of their lives

trying to find it, and the

other half being disappointed

that they can’t, while there

are many little soap bubbles

floating in the air around them,

but they don’t ever see them.
Limor Moyal

The illuminators offer the privilege of witness. They take the anecdotes, rationalizations and episodes we tell and see us in a noble struggle.
David Brooks

Kindness is more than deeds.
It is an attitude, an expression,
a look, a touch. It is anything
that lifts another person.
C. Neil Strait

Celebrate the small things
and our lives become
bigger than ever.
Tim Fargo

Honolulu Pride

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Hit the reset button.

Whatever happened yesterday,

forget about it.

Get a new perspective.

Today is a new day.

Fresh start begins now. Germany Kent

Congratulations! Today is your day You're off to great places You're off and away You've got brains in your head You've got feet in your shoes You can steer yourself any Direction you choose Dr. Suess

Even the bad moments,

the tough ones,

I'm proud of them, too.

Those moments get you better,

smarter, make you grow.

     Manu Ginobili

There are two kinds of pride,

both good and bad.

'Good pride' represents our

dignity and self-respect.

'Bad pride' is the deadly sin

of superiority that reeks

of conceit and arrogance. John C. Maxwell

Your head is a living forest

full of song birds.

   E. E. Cummings: 

Dads are most ordinary men

turned into heroes, adventurers,

storytellers and singers of song.

Pam Brown

Don’t let the tall weeds
cast a shadow on the
beautiful flowers
in your garden.

Take A Breath

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Take a breath of the 

new dawn and make 

it a part of you.

      Hopi Proverb

Music is the sound of

life celebrating itself.

          John Ortiz

The more one meditates
upon good thoughts,
the better will be their world
and the world at large.
Confucius

Each of us has a characteristic way

of showing up in the world.

A person who radiates warmth

will bring out the glowing sides

of the people he meets, while

a person who conveys formality

can meet the same people and

find them stiff and detached.

David Brooks

 The essential moral skill

is being considerate to

others in the complex

circumstances of everyday life.

Beach Street

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Especially in times of darkness,

that is the time to love,

That an act of love

might tip the balance.

    Aeschylus

Sun's rays glitter on the waves,
Sand is warm beneath my feet.
Breathe the salty air,
Smile at the beauty of the day.
Waves crash, wind whispers
Feel the peace and tranquility

Walking on the beach.
The world slows down,
All that matters is today.
Grateful I know that
Every morning,
Starts a beautiful
day of my life.

We ourselves feel 
that what we are doing
is just a drop in the ocean.
 But the ocean would be less 
because of that missing drop.
    Mother Teresa

A good word is
an easy obligation;
but not to speak ill
requires only our silence;
which costs us nothing.
John Tillotson

Dare to Believe in Your Happiness

A L O H A From Honolulu!

When doubts arise,

and darkness falls, Remember the love

that always calls. Within your heart,

a flame burns bright, The beacon of

your inner light.

The shadow is the greatest

teacher for how to

come to the light.

Carl Jung

Do something- anything-

in service of showing Love.

That is how we

reclaim our power.

    Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg

Getting lost in the ‘big picture’

often prevents us from

cherishing the 'small moments'

that make it all worthwhile...

Relish

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We're all traveling 

through time together, 

every day of our lives. 

All we can do 

is do our best to relish 

this remarkable ride

            Richard Curtis

Apprehension, uncertainty, 

waiting, expectation, 

fear of surprise, do a 

patient more harm 

than any exertion

           Florence Nightingale

A child can teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason, to always be busy with something, and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires.

Paulo Coelho

If you want to be a different fish,

jump out of school.

   Don Van Vliet

When you bait the hook

with your heart, the

fish always bite.

John Burroughs

"Fish?"

You can't calm the storm,

so stop trying. What you can do is calm yourself. The storm will pass. Timber Hawkeye
