I wasn't born a fool.

 It took work 

to get this way.

When you yearn

to grasp

Open your hand

and set it free

I really just want to be 

warm yellow light that 

pours over everyone I love.

Until one has loved an animal,

a part of one's soul

remains unawakened.

Replenish

 A L O H A  From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

Rest and self-care 

are so important. 

When you take time to 

replenish your spirit, it allows 

you to serve others from 

the overflow. You cannot 

serve from an empty vessel.

     Eleanor Brownn

Life should be touched, 

not strangled. 

You've got to relax, 

let it happen at times... 

    Ray Bradbury

Thanks for skies 

Immeasurably blue,  

Clouds drifting softly 

With nothing to do,  

Rivers flow 

Always free,  

A quiet hymn

Called: Simply BE.  

The sparrow doesn't

Sing tomorrow,  

Needs no plans

Or borrowed sorrow.  

The song is now

Wings are here 

Let blessed joy

Sing pure and clear.  

So sketch your plans

Upon the shore;  

Where waves erase them

In perfect candor.

Walk barefoot

Where this earth is kind,  

Tonic for the busy mind.  

A breath, a laugh,

The sky so wide  

These gifts await

When worries subside.

   Cloudia Charters 

Almost everything 

will work again if 

you unplug it 

for a few minutes, 

including you.

Tremendous beauty 

can be found in 

the tiniest of things... 

for who has ever 

thought to rival that 

of a butterfly's wing?

Never lose an opportunity

 of seeing anything beautiful, 

for beauty is God's handwriting.

 I have never been 

especially impressed

 by the heroics of people

 who are convinced they are 

about to change the world. 

I am more awed by those 

who struggle to make

 one small difference 

after another.

We all have two lives.
The second one starts
when we realize
we only have one.

One joy scatters

a hundred griefs. Chinese proverb

With a little seed of

A yellow-tailed angelfish flashed his tail at me. His shimmering skin

was all aglow, as he wiggled his fins

and waved hello. Darlene Gifford

flowers in her hair When she gave me

Shell Smell Spell

 A L O H A  From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

Spirit of Life, come unto me.

Sing in my heart all

the stirrings of compassion.

Blow in the wind, rise in the sea;

Move in the hand, giving

life the shape of justice.

Roots hold me close;

wings set me free;

Spirit of Life, come to me,

come to me.

Carolyn McDade

From dawn to dusk,

winter to spring,

summer & autumn;

the contrasts of nature

refresh the mind & renew

our sense of balance.

Phil Harding

Good friends and

excellent teachers— Stick close to them! Wealth and power

are fleeting dreams But wise words

perfume the world

for ages. Ryōkan

Look back, and smile 

on perils past.

 Walter Scott

The wind moves freely, Doesn't wonder where to go. The river flows, Free of seeking,

Halt, or hurry. All you can do, Is all you can do. In this moment, You are enough.
