Power We All Have

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Kindness is a power 

we all have. 

We just have to 

decide to use it. 

     Mo Rocca









Children require long, 

uninterrupted periods of 

play and exploration.

        Jean Piaget







The only journey is

the one within.

Rilke











Philosophy begins 

in wonder. 

Plato
















Made for spirituality,

we wallow in introspection.

Made for joy, we

settle for pleasure. . .

N. T. Wright

Joyous Profusion At Last: Spring Edition

A L O H A From Honolulu!
What a strange thing!
to be alive
beneath cherry blossoms.
Kobayashi Issa





5 Arrows

Nostalgia in reverse,

the longing for yet

another strange land,

grew especially strong

in spring.

Vladimir Nabokov






sweet spring is your time is my time is our time for springtime is lovetime and viva sweet love (all the merry little birds are flying in the floating in the very spirits singing in are winging in the blossoming)
e.e. cummings





Tiny Palms









It's spring fever.

That is what the name of it is.

And when you've got it,

you want—oh, you don't

quite know what it is

you do want, but

it just fairly makes

your heart ache,
you want it so!
Mark Twain





In the spring,
at the end of the day,
you should smell like dirt. Margaret Atwood

Creating these posts
can be an emotional thing.

A famous rabbi wouldn't
even answer the door
if he was not himself.
Energy & Feelings
pronounce themselves
in everything we do
and say.

Check your state.
Is it who you
really are
?

Weed your garden.
Choose your flowers
and some 'weeds'
Groom your mood.

Things will change.
But then they always do.
Except now
you will be driving.

Thanks for your dear visit!

Love You,

Any Fool Can

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

Small emotions are the 

great captains of 

our  lives. 

van Gough








Youth always tries 

to fill the void, 

an old one learns 

to live with it.     

                                   Mark Z. Danielewski





The Creator made humans 

able to walk and talk, 

to see and hear ... to 

do everything. 


But the Creator 

wasn't satisfied. 









- Finally the Creator 

made humans laugh, 

and when they laughed 

and laughed, the 

Creator said, 

"Now you are fit to live."

Traditional Apache Story















Any fool can criticize, 

condemn and complain 

and most fools do. 

Benjamin Franklin

The Best Mentor

A L O H A From Honolulu!
When young,

older people look

like wrecks.

When mature,

younger people look

half baked.









For years I have noticed

that "what to wear"

"what to eat" "what NOT

to say" have all regularly

popped unbidden

into my head.







So I began to go

with the outfit

that popped into

my mind.

That became a habit.







Then I began applying it

to other things. In other

words, I started to heed

the suggestions

that seemed to

present themselves.


It occurs to me

that all my prudence

and foresight

have produced as much

trouble for me,

as successes.


Every major New

Direction, has been made

[when examined closely]

by persistent "hunch"

hunches that keep repeating

and finding complementary

echoes seemingly everywhere.






Perhaps, angels are always

speaking, directing, aiding.

Be alert. Be aware

of what presents

to your fascination

unbidden.

Such lies the way

to your best

and your bliss.




Of course, we all know 

from cartoons that 

we each have a devil, 

as well as an angel. 

That's why we have two shoulders. 

[And for wings later].

It comes to choice. 

What am I choosing 

over and over again,

and where does that lead? 

Which self do I feed? 

Is that the person

that I WANT to be? 

Choices. 

We are all free 

to make new ones!
