Old Ends New Beginnings

 A   L   O   H   A  !

I close my eyes 

to old ends. And 

open my heart 

to new beginnings.

Nick Frederickson

Things always work out 

but seldom like you 

think they will. 

Occasionally detours are 

the sweetest part of life.

    Sue Aikens 

My idea of Heaven is to 

wake up, have a 

good breakfast, 

and spend the rest 

of the day drawing.

The aim of art is to 

represent not the outward 

appearance of things, but 

their inward significance.

Aristotle

When evil men plot, 

good men must plan. 

When evil men burn and bomb, 

good men must build and bind. 

When evil men shout 

ugly words of hatred, 

good men must 

commit themselves 

to the glories of love.

        Martin Luther  King 

The lamps are all different 

but the light is the same.

Portals

 A   L   O   H   A  !

For a long time

nothing but 

undifferentiated

clouds.

Then, subtly, a portal

seems to appear.

Yes. There it is. See it?

OK Enter

Blue Skies say:

"All Is Well."

To our eyes,

portals of the Soul,

that express and also

feed on beauty,

Like this sky

beckoning "Enter"

Invitation to a 

wondrous pink world

Torii have been around for centuries, though their true origin is shrouded in mystery. The word itself derives from phrases that mean "pass through and enter" and "bird perch" (in Japan, birds have a symbolic connection with death). The earliest toriis that still stand today were built as far back as the 12th century, but the structure's history stretches back to the Heian period in the 900s.

Recharging Tips

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Are you managing 

your energy well and 

using it for things that matter? 

Do you stop to recharge before 

you push yourself to 

critically low levels? 

Unplug to recharge.

Susan C. Young

Self-care is how you 

take your power back.

Lalah Delia

He kehau ho’oma’ema’e ka aloha

(Love is like a cleansing dew.)

The  power of  Aloha 

can soothe and heal. 

Love removes hurt.  

One 'ukulele 

and one soul 

can do a lot. 

 Kindy Sproat

The pain you feel today 

is the strength 

you feel tomorrow.

The most complicated skill

We carry inside us

outside us. 

     Rumi

Are you a Silver City 

Level Cloud

or a Soaring

       Pink Feather?

What can we gain 

by sailing to the moon if 

we are not able to cross the 

abyss that separates us 

from ourselves? 

This is the most important  of

all voyages of discovery. . .

          Thomas Merton

Looking out

over a dark and glittering city,

preferably beside a great river,

harbor, or the sea.

That's the place, the time

to yearn

when one is young.

So much out there

to see, to do, to want.

In later years to

dream, remember, wonder,

and know.

Justice is not postponed. 

A perfect equity adjusts 

it’s balance in all parts of life. 

The dice of God 

are always loaded.
