In Sunshine And Shade

A  L  O  H  A  From Honolulu!

We have been friends together 

in sunshine and in shade.

     Caroline Norton

The art of art, 

the glory of expression 

and the sunshine of 

the light of letters 

is simplicity.     

           Walt Whitman

2019

This is the power of gathering: 

it inspires us, delightfully, 

to be more hopeful, 

more joyful, more 

thoughtful: in a word, 

more alive. 

              Alice Waters

Kindness is the sunshine 

in which virtue grows.

       Robert Green Ingersoll

Spring Won't Let Me

 A  L  O  H  A  From Honolulu!

It is easier to achieve 

a desired result 

in short pieces.

                        Gustav Mahler

Great Blogging Motto!

Spring won't let me 

stay in this house 

any longer! I must 

get out and breathe 

the air deeply again.

Mahler

The world is round 

and the place which 

may seem like the end 

may also be 

only the beginning.

Ivy Baker Priest

The world is wrong side up. 

It needs to be 

turned upside down 

in order to be 

right side up.

Inner Desire, Far View

 A   L   O   H   A  From Honolulu!

So Nice Seeing YOU Today!

Fly & Flower

Nature will bear the 

closest inspection. 

She invites us to lay 

our eye level with her 

smallest leaf, and take an 

insect view of its plain. 

     Henry David Thoreau

The sparrow flying 

behind the hawk thinks 

the hawk is fleeing.

Japanese Proverbs

Kindness is an inner desire that 

makes us want to do good things 

even if we do not get 

anything in return. 

It is the joy of our life to do them. 

When we do good things 

from this inner desire, 

there is kindness in everything 

we think, say, want, and do.

Emanuel Swedenborg

And all those who see me 

and all who believe in me, 

share in the freedom 

I feel when I fly.

           John Denver

I was fast & smart.

Now I appreciate

patience & humility.

I used to focus on

every speck on the glass.

Now I'm taking in the view.

Guess you could say

I've expanded my focus

and perspective.

What a lovely view!

Love You,

            Pixie & Cloudia

Crave Confusion

A  L  O  H  A  From Honolulu! 

Shot 4 minutes ago!

Each time dawn appears, 

the mystery is there 

in its entirety. 

          Rene Daumal

What happens when 

people open their hearts? 

They get better.

   Haruki Murakami

Open your mind 

and let the 

pictures out. 

     William S. Burroughs

Fly without wings; 

Dream with open eyes.

      Dejan Stojanovic 

There is nothing 

stronger than gentleness.

John Wooden

Dogs. Meh. . . .

Don't be afraid to be confused. 

Try to remain 

permanently confused. 

Anything is possible. 

Stay open, forever, 

so open it hurts, 

and then open up some more, 

until the day you die, 

world without end, 

amen.

Granny said God hung that haze 

on purpose, to hide these hills 

from the folks up in Heaven 

who was raised here, so they 

wouldn't look down 

and be homesick.

Only a person who has passed 

through the gate of humility 

can ascend to the 

heights of the spirit.

You begin saving the world

There are a million ways to surf,

you're doing it right.

She seems OK. Glad she got it, eh?

“What ho!" I said.

"What ho!" said Motty.

"What ho! What ho!"

"What ho! What ho! What ho!"

After that it seemed rather

 difficult to go on 

with the conversation.

Wealthier

 A  L  O  H  A  From Honolulu!

A circle is the reflection of eternity. 

It has no beginning and 

it has no end - and if you put 

several circles over each other, 

then you get a spiral. 

Maynard James Keenan

As for me I will follow the 

path of the pink bunnies.

The most complicated skill 

is to be simple.

 Dejan Stojanovic

Do you have a relationship

You would pay a

million dollars to ransom?

Then you are wealthier

than a millionaire

who cannot buy

the same.
