Light pulsing on water

The songs of wild birds

teach much more than

mere human words.

"Silence make the real 

conversations between friends. 

Not the saying, but the 

never needing to 

say that counts.

                  Margaret Lee Runbeck 

"Friends are those rare people 

who ask how we are and then 

wait to hear the answer."

                   Ed Cunningham

"Good friends help you 

to find important things 

when you have lost them… 

your smile, your hope, 

and your courage."

             Doe Zantamata

"You'll NEVER believe 

who I met today!"

Marin Foggy Morning

A  L  O  H  A !

I left my heart  in San Francisco

"Love is like fog -- 
there is no mountain on
which it does not rest."
                                Hawaiian Proverb

 Morning Fog

"As on many mornings in Marin, 

there is this sly strip of fog - water 

in it's most mystical incarnation - 

slithering over, around, and through 

the hills, making everything look 

ancient and unsolved.” 

                                          Jaimal Yogis 

My Love Waits There

“Yesterday I was clever, so 
I wanted to change the world. 
Today I am wise, so I am 
changing myself.”     
                              Rumi

Your Golden Sun Will Shine For Me

Thank YOU

Rebellion

A  L  O  H  A !

"When the truth 

comes around, all 

the lies have to 

run and hide."

                            Ice Cube

“Rebellion against your handicaps 

gets you nowhere. Self-pity 

gets you nowhere. One must 

have the adventurous daring 

to accept oneself as a 

bundle of possibilities and 

undertake the most 

interesting game in 

the world - making the 

most of one's best.”

                            Harry Emerson Fosdick 

"I'm moving, 

but don't worry! 

[Someone once told me] we're 

all on the same planet, 

so I'll be okay!"

Minor Angels Loving Hearts

A  L  O  H  A !

 “Dogs are minor angels, and 

I don't mean that facetiously. 

They love unconditionally, 

forgive immediately, are 

the truest of friends, willing to

 do anything that makes 

us happy, etcetera. 

If we attributed some of 

those qualities to a person 

we would say they 

are special. If they 

had ALL of them, 

we would call them 

angelic.” 

                    Jonathan Carroll

" A seed hidden 

in the heart of an apple 

is an orchard invisible. "

               Welsh Proverb

"A loving heart is

 the beginning of 

all knowledge."

                      Thomas Carlyle
