Eudaimonia; "Life lived Well, with Meaning"

A L O H A !

" Walking with a friend
 in the dark 
is better than
 walking alone
 in the light. "

Helen Keller 

" Everything has its wonders,
 even darkness and silence,
 and I learn, 
whatever state I may be in,
 therein to be
 content. "

Helen Keller 

" Once I knew only darkness 
and stillness... 
my life was without past
 or future... 
but a little word 
from the fingers of another
 fell into my hand
 that clutched at emptiness,
 and my heart leaped
 to the rapture of living. "

Helen Keller 

Ribbon in the SKY

Provocateur of Smiles

A   L   O   H   A  !

" 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 



"Smiles
are like
surgically enhanced
breasts:
nice to see,
but authentic ones
just feel better."

To Triumph

A   L   O   H   A  !

" Passion 
rebuilds the world
 for the youth.
 It makes all things
 alive
 and significant. "

Ralph Waldo Emerson 

" One of the stereotypes
 I see breaking
 is the idea of aging
 and older women
 not being beautiful. "

 Annie Leibovitz 

" To keep the heart unwrinkled,
 to be hopeful, kindly,
 cheerful, reverent-
-that is to triumph 
over old age. "

Thomas Bailey Aldrich

 " Young men

 think old men

 are fools; 

but old men

 know 

young men

 are fools. "

 George Chapman

" To me,
 a lush carpet of
pine needles

 or spongy grass
 is more welcome
 than the most

 luxurious
 Persian rug.  "

 it is necessary

 to become

 a part of the

 silence. ”
