What You Get

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Be FOR
something great,
Not angry about
something you hate.



There are voices which we hear

in solitude but they grow

faint and inaudible as

we enter into the world.

Ralph Waldo Emerson


To live is so startling it

leaves little time
for anything else.
Emily Dickinson






You don’t get in life what you want;
 
you get in life what you are.

            Les Brown

All my life I have tried
to pluck a thistle
and plant a flower
wherever the flower
would grow in
thought and mind.

the gift of paying attention.

Would Suffice

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Your expression of mood
provides the daily weather
for those you love the most.
Be mindfully mild as a
spring day when you can.



To make anything interesting you simply have to look at it long enough. Flaubert



If it's not a health problem,
It's NOT a problem.



 If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is "thank you," that would suffice. Meister Eckhart



Few delights can equal 
the mere presence of
 one whom we 
trust utterly.
                 George MacDonald

Lessons from a Christmas Tree: Be a light in the darkness. We all fall over sometimes. You can never wear
too much glitter. Bring joy to others. Sparkle and twinkle
as often as possible. It's okay to be a little tilted. Jane Lee Logan




Waikiki endured lock-down.
Our streets were empty,
Stores boarded up;
But Sunday saw the running of
the 50th Honolulu Marathon.




Mix in Christmastime hustle,
and the beach town is feeling
like herself again!

Life is a craft no one masters.
But we will see an abundance of
amazing colors, beautiful views and
stunning insights along the way.
Ricky Maye



People may talk as much as they like
about their religion, but if it does not
teach them to be good and kind
to man and beast, it is a sham. Anna Sewell

Lines

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Live out of your 
imagination instead of 
out of your memory.
             Les Brown




Moon Veiled

The walls we 
build around us to 
keep sadness out also 
keep out the joy.
               Jim Rohn




'

The line separating good & evil
passes not through states,
not between classes, nor between
political parties either - but right
through every human heart.
    Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn



Be master of your 
petty annoyances and 
conserve your 
energies for the big, 
worthwhile things. 
               Robert Service




It's a funny thing about life, 
once you begin to 
take note of the things
you are grateful for
you begin to lose sight of 
the things that you lack.
         Germany Kent

Unrestrained And Often Silly

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Santa, Frosty & Nutcracker @ Hawaii Yacht Club

Nothing ever seems too bad,
too hard, or too sad when
you've got a Christmas tree
in the living room.
Nora Roberts



Clearing away clutter is
good for the soul, because
it allows your surroundings to be a
reflection of the person you are today,
not the person you were yesterday.
       Eleanor Brownn



 Clutter is anything that
does not support
your better self. Eleanor Brownn



Probably the reason we all
go so haywire at Christmas time
with the endless unrestrained and
often silly buying of gifts is that
we don’t quite know how
to put our love into words.
Harlan Miller

Feel

A L O H A From Honolulu!


If growing up means it would be beneath my dignity to climb a tree, I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me! J.M. Barrie



Sometimes falling flat on
your face allows you to
see things from a totally
different perspective. Linda Poindexter




We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. Bryan White




You don’t need to be
the tide to rise and fall, you don’t have to be a wave to touch the shore; just be a little sand-grain and feel them all Munia Khan
