Walking through

thoughts full of colors.

I function the best

when I don't distinguish

between work and play.

People talk about

entering nirvana, but

we are already there.

Thich Nhat Hanh

Play like a child

and keep the

inner idiots alive.

   Elvis Costello

There is no need to run,

strive, search or struggle.

Just be. Just being

in the moment in

this place is the

deepest practice

of meditation.

Into Which We Were Born

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The longer I live

the more beautiful

life becomes.

               Frank Lloyd Wright

I feel as if

I'm always on the

verge of waking up.

  Fernando Pessoa

Know that you are

the perfect age.-

- Each year is special

and precious, for

you shall only

live it once.

It's never the differences

between people that

surprise us. It's the

things that, against all odds,

we have in common.

     Jodi Picoult

Red Crested Cardinal

A proper lunch

should be spiritually

as well as physically

nourishing. Cozy, convivial,

a treat; lunch is

for loafers.

Do not grow old,

no matter how long you live.

Never cease to stand

like curious children

before the great mystery

into which we were born.

Power

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

The dark does not

destroy the light;

it defines it.

It’s our fear of the

dark that casts our joy

into the shadows.

Brene Brown

We lose ourselves

in the things we love.

We find ourselves

there, too.

 Kristin Martz

 I have the opportunity, 

once more to right 

some wrongs, to pray for 

peace, to plant some trees, 

and sing more joyful songs.

    William Arthur Ward

Take a walk outside –

it will serve you far more

than pacing around

in your mind.

Rasheed Ogunlaru

Words Have Power.

NEVER say anything

that you do NOT

want to be true.

Immediately contradict a

negative with its opposite.

Repeat positive ideas

That you believe in

and they will

fill your life!

That Gentle Attitude

A L O H A From Honolulu!

How you make others 

feel about themselves 

says everything about 

you. 

I'm THAT complicated,

mysterious, yet content

with the "simple"

things in life. Don't

try to understand me;

you won't figure me out.

But you're free to 

like me

the way I am.

  Marwa Ayad

How much the world

needs tenderness today!

  Pope Francis

The flower that blooms

in adversity is the

most rare and

beautiful of all. 

 Mulan

Each friend represents

a world in us, a

world possibly not born

until they arrive, and

it is only by this meeting

that a new world is born.

   Anaïs Nin

Feel so good,

feel so right.

It's not a struggle-

Just a snuggle: That gentle attitude.

Like a Welcome Summer Rain!

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Calmness is the

cradle of power.

  J.G. Holland

Like a welcome

summer rain,

humor may

suddenly cleanse

and cool the earth,

the air and you.

Langston Hughes

Fruits were my candy

as a little girl growing up

in Barbados. I was

surrounded by a variety

of fruit trees: Tamarind,

cherry, mango, dunks,

papaya, guava, pear,

sugar apple, golden apple,

and gooseberry trees. Charmaine J. Forde

 

Callistemon citrinus

Little things seem nothing,

but they give peace,

like those meadow flowers

which individually seem

odorless but all together

perfume the air.     

Georges Bernanos

Hugs can do great

amounts of good --

especially for children. Diana,

Princess of Wales

The sunny soul

brings sunshine everywhere. A bright and

happy temperament is a great social asset, adding to the happiness of the world. Hugh Black

Your Bit

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Don't be distracted by

emotions like anger, envy,

resentment. These just

zap energy and

waste time.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg 

Peace is not when

everyone agrees.

It is when we

can respect our

disagreements

and still play in the

sandbox together.

If we do not

transform our pain,

we will most assuredly

transmit it.

 Richard Rohr 

Clerodendrum quadriloculare

A species of flowering plant

native to New Guinea

and the Philippines.

   Wikipedia

The best way to

cheer yourself is to

cheer somebody else up.

Einstein

Do your little bit of good

where you are; it’s

those little bits of good

put together that

overwhelm the world.

  Desmond Tutu
