Dreams Show Up

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The ideas that have lighted my way have been kindness, beauty and truth. Albert Einstein


Are you waiting for
the perfect moment, To strike and take your prey? Or are you simply
surveying the scene, Content to watch the day?



Every blade of grass
has its angel that bends over it and whispers, 'Grow, grow.' The Talmud





Everything you've ever dreamed of will often show up in different packaging than you were envisioning. Brenden Dilley

To See Another Day

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Our goal in life should be to live in radical amazement.
Get up in the morning
and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal, everything is incredible. Never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.
Abraham Joshua Herschel



Another morning
Sun is up,
Birds are singing
In the trees,
Flowers spark dew.
my heart is glad 
To be alive!



If we could see the miracle
of a single flower clearly,
our whole life would change.
Buddha



Another morning I am here, And all is well with me. I am glad to be alive, To see another day.

Leaves are of more various forms
 than the alphabets 
of all languages put together. . . 
there are hardly two alike, 
and each expresses 
its own character.

The Color Of

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Ahoy there, mates,
it's time for Halloween,
And this fireplug's dressed up
like a pirate keen.
Nothing tops off
a jolly costume
like a jaunty hat
with a billowing plume.





"Yellow is the color of wisdom."
Chinese proverb

"Yellow is the color of knowledge."
Japanese proverb





"Yellow is the color of enlightenment."
Buddhist proverb
"Yellow is the color of the divine."
Hindu proverb
"Yellow is the color of the soul."

It is almost impossible
to watch a sunset
and not dream.
Bern Williams



When you've lost sight of your path, listen for the
destination in your heart. Katsura Hoshino

Gratitude Vibration

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 Quiet thoughts
mend the body.
      Chinese Proverb




The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It’s always there,
watching, steadfast, knowing us
in our light and dark moments,
changing forever just as we do.
Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan,
sometimes strong and full of light.
The moon understands what
it means to be human. Uncertain. Alone.
Cratered by imperfections. Tahereh Mafi




Perhaps the most persistent call
is to love one another
with compassion
and open arms,
even and especially
when we find ourselves
face to face
with people we
don't understand.
Matthew Myer Boulton



The enlightened give thanks for
what most people take for granted.
As you begin to be grateful for
what most people take for granted,
that vibration of gratitude makes you
more receptive to good in your life.
Michael Bernard Beckwith



Young Pixie
When you've lost sight
of your path,
listen
for the destination
in your heart.

Best and Beautiful

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The moon is a friend
for the lonely.
Carl Sandburg





 The best and most beautiful
things in this world
cannot be seen or even heard,
but must be felt with the heart. 
       Helen Keller




Tiny drops of pure delight,
Glistening in the morning light.
Cradled gently by a leaf,
A fleeting gift, a small relief.

Each drop a world unto itself,
Reflecting sky and clouds above,
A microcosm of the universe,
A gift of beauty and of love.




Genius is no more than a
childhood recaptured at will. 
Arthur Rimbaud



 Words were never invented
to fully explain the peaceful aura
that surrounds us when
we are in communion with
minds of the same thoughts.
Eddie Myers

Delights Of Age

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It is a mistake to regard age as
a downhill grade toward dissolution.
The reverse is true.
As one grows older, one
climbs with surprising strides.
George Sand


 The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us. Ashley Montagu




I was walking with a friend 50 years ago. A very well dressed older gentleman approached us and told her sincerely that her beauty compelled him to honor her. He kissed her hand, and sincerely told my friend: "You are beautiful." Then went on his way....



...It is 50 years later. And
I only witnessed this. But
I remember that man,
that experience. Be like him.
Share with people. Let them know.
And perhaps in 50 years
they will still remember
the encounter and your words!



One of the delights known to age, and beyond the grasp of youth, is that of Not Going. Anthony Burgess
                                           > < } } ( ° >



If I ever go looking

for my heart's desire again,
I won't look any further 
than my own backyard;
because if it isn't there,
I never really lost it
to begin with.
   Dorothy, 
             Wizard of OZ
