Resonate

A L O H A From Honolulu!
You can’t be that kid
standing at the top
of the water-slide,
overthinking it.
You have to
go down the chute.
  Tina Fey




A truly great book 
should be read 
in youth, 
again in maturity and 
once more in old age, 
as a fine building 
should be seen 
by morning light,
 at noon 
and by moonlight.
           Robertson Davies




Hope is a helium balloon. 
It is a wish lantern set out 
into the dark sky of night.
Sharon Weil




Photography is a reality so subtle 
that it becomes more real than reality. 
           Alfred Stieglitz




I think it is the small
gestures that resonate.
Nick Cave

Happiness Nearest

A L O H A From Honolulu!

An unexamined life
is not worth living. Socrates



Love is like paint –
you can’t spread even a little
without getting some on yourself.
Wayne L. Misner


To be wise is to be
eternally curious.
Frederick Buechner



Sing with your voices,
your hearts, your
lips and your lives.
Augustine Of Hippo


To be kind to all, to
like many and love a few, to
be needed and wanted by those 
 we love, is certainly the nearest we
can come to happiness.

Soulful Serene and Kind

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Joy increases as you give it, and diminishes as you try to keep it yourself. In giving it, you will accumulate a deposit of joy greater than you ever believed possible.
Norman Vincent Peale



Cormorant
To be endowed with 
a generous mind,
is the best kind 
of nobility.
            Plato





Coincidences are God's way
of getting our attention.
 Frederick Buechner





Wish For You
When the sun begins to set,
A healing rest is what we get.
Not just for body, but also for mind,
A soulful rest, serene and kind.
Pixie

Let's Rock

A L O H A From Honolulu!

I'm going to rock
on the ocean of
What Is
until the end
of the voyage.
    Cloudia Charters




The life I touch for good or ill
will touch another life, and
in turn another, until
who knows where the
trembling stops or in what
far place my touch will be felt.
  Frederick Buechner




When your mind
is narrow, small things 
agitate you very easily. 
Make your mind 
an ocean. 
        Lama Yeshe


A smile is a curve that
sets everything straight.
             Phyllis Diller

In Your Garden

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Happiness held is the seed;
Happiness shared is the flower.
  John Harrington






The fact that I can plant a seed
and it becomes a flower,
share a bit of knowledge
and it becomes another's,
smile at someone and receive
a smile in return,
are to me continual
spiritual exercises.
Leo Buscaglia



Nobody sees a flower really;
it is so small. We haven't time, and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time. Georgia O'Keeffe



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

Three Tigers

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Everything  you believe 
affects everything 
that comes to you.
     Abraham Hicks



To myself I am
 but a small child 
wandering upon the vast shores 
of knowledge, every now 
and then finding 
a small bright pebble 
to content myself with.    
 Plato



There's no such thing as an uninteresting life. Mark Twain


Joy, rather than happiness,
is the goal of life...
It is based on the experience
of one’s identity as a being
of worth and dignity.
Rollo May


Believe that life is worth living,
and your belief will
help create the fact. William James

Pin It With A Star

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Twilight drops her curtain down, 
and pins it with a star.
        Lucy Maud Montgomery




 Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won't come In. Isaac Asimov




Choose 
the least important 
day in your life.
 It will be 
important enough.
   Thornton Wilder, 
                                               
Our Town "






Look deep into nature,
and you will understand
everything better.
Albert Einstein




To know how to grow old
is the master work of wisdom,
and one of the most
difficult chapters In the
great art of living.
Henri Frederic Amiel
