" Worry is a misuse 

of imagination. "

“ Truth is a gem 

that is found at

 a great depth; 

whilst on the surface

 of the world

 all things 

are weighed by the 

false scale 

of custom. ”

 Byron

“Don’t read into it. 

If there is 

something 

to be told, 

it will be.” 

Rakishi

NEVER goes out

of style. "

 POETRY;

it opens the mind,

 lends grace

 to wisdom. . ."

is learning to be 

a well of affection,

 and not a fountain,

 to show them 

that we love them,

 not when 

we feel like it, 

but when they do. ”

The Guiding Life

A   L   O   H   A  !

"  To offer no resistance to life 
is to be in a state of grace, 
ease, and  lightness, "

Eckhart Tolle

" This City now doth,

 like a garment, wear

The beauty of the morning; 

silent, bare "

William Wordsworth

" If 

you clean the floor

 with love, 

you have done

an invisible painting. "

Osho

 Life is always guiding us. 

First it intimates, 

drawing our attention 

to what we need to know.

 If we don't notice, 

Life clears it's throat. 

If we still don't heed, 

Life taps us on the shoulder; 

All before 

Life punches us 

in the face!

 Yet we like to 
complain 

how random 

and scary

 Life is -

When it's been
guiding us
all along.

Thanks for visiting!

A Friend Like That

A   L   O   H   A  !

" When you judge another, 

you do not define them, 

you define yourself. "

Wayne W. Dyer 

" Those whom 

the gods love 

grow young. "

Oscar Wilde

" Look back, and smile on perils past. "

Walter Scott

"I talk to him when I'm lonesome like, 

And I'm sure he understands. 

When he looks at me so attentively, 

And gently licks my hands, 

Then he rubs his nose 

on my tailored clothes,

 But I never say naught thereat. 

For the good Lord knows

 I can buy more clothes, 

But never a friend 

like that." 

W. Dayton Wedgefarth

Good Fences Honolulu

I love the snug, sweet 

little single-walled

 bungalows of Honolulu.

“A woman's dress 

should be like 

a barbed-wire fence: 

serving its purpose 

without 

obstructing the view.”

 Sophia Loren

Like everyone else

I used to complain

of writer's block.

Now I understand:

creative work

takes the time

it needs,

IF you let it.

We can't push the river

or go against the flow.

[ calling it 'work ethic' ]

and truly birth the 
Real Thing
struggling to be
 born. *

I understand that

ALL 
important creative work

does not occur

at the keyboard,

easel, or view finder.

Life

is all the time

You Need.

* "Words of truth ARE paradoxical"

Lao Tzu is right.

The art of writing

is the art of applying

your bottom

to the seat

in front of the Keyboard.

If you would BE a writer:

Write. Your life

(if you are lucky) 

will become a

writer's life.

" If you wish to be a writer; write! "
