Kill Them

With Kindness

A  L  O  H  A !

Putting yourself 

first

doesn't mean

putting others

last.

" If you’re not the 

hero of your own novel, 

then what kind 

of novel is it? 

You need to do 

some heavy editing.”

                          Terence McKenna

" A gentle answer 

turns away wrath, 

But a harsh word 

stirs up anger. "

Good Fences

You cannot kill nastiness

with kindness

unless you

really ARE kind.

No one wants

to be corrected,

or instructed

by a stranger.

But most people

are calmed

by gentleness

and restraint.

Why escalate

a trivial slight

into serious trouble?

Because when you do

stand up to someone

you have to be prepared

for whatever they bring.

Like war:

use only when

Absolutely Necessary!

I can have

a shockingly

short fuse.

That's why I

write these things.

How about 

YOU?

So Soar and Sparkle

A  L  O  H  A !

Our lives are rainbows

in reverse

footed in Heaven

passing through Earth.

Our colors and flavors

deepen as we arch

through plenty and longing,

oasis and parch.

So soar and sparkle

in your sun:

Unique, You

0ne and 0nly

Like every  

other 0ne.

Thank YOU

for Sparkling

here!

We Do Not Believe

A  L  O  H  A !

“ We do not believe

 in ourselves -

- until someone reveals

 that deep inside us 

something is valuable,

 worth listening to, -

- worthy of our trust, 

sacred to our touch. 

Once we believe 

in ourselves -

- we can risk curiosity,

 wonder, spontaneous delight 

or any experience -

- that reveals 

the human spirit.”

                   e. e. Cummings
