Just A Drop

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We know only too well that

what we are doing is nothing

more than a drop in the ocean.

But if the drop were not there,

the ocean would be

missing something.

One drop of wine is enough to

redeem a whole glass of water.

Mother Teresa

Nothing causes more

consternation in a group

of hypocrites than

one honest person.

Einstein

In the beginner's mind

there are many possibilities,

but in the expert's there are few. Shunryu Suzuki

Discouragement is like a

scorpion in your shoe;

it takes courage to toss it out

so you can move on.

Richelle E. Goodrich

People deal too much with

the negative, with what is wrong.

Why not try and see positive

things, to just touch those

things and make them bloom?

Thich Nhat Hanh

I am smart enough

to keep it simple,

make it simple, and I

or the world's thy jail. John Donne

If The World Could Understand

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Nothing wrong with tears.
They polish your soul.

It is by going down into

the abyss that we recover

the treasures of life.

Where you stumble,

there lies your treasure.

The very cave you are afraid

to enter turns out to be the

source of what you are looking for.
Joseph Campbell

Every person is unique

and autonomous and

actually, considered independently,

the greatest artwork of all time. Thomas Bernhard

Your face is a billboard

advertising your

philosophy of life!

  Barbara Johnson

If the world could only

understand Aloha,

what a beautiful place

Happy Chinese New Year From Honolulu!

You May Think

A L O H A From Honolulu!

You may think that you

are completely insignificant

in this world. But someone drinks coffee

from the favorite cup

that you gave them. Someone heard a song

on the radio that

reminded them of you.

Someone read the book

that you recommended, and

plunged headfirst into it. Someone smiled after a

hard day of work, because

they remembered the joke

that you told them today.

Someone loves themselves

a little bit more, because

you gave them a compliment.

Never think that you have

no influence whatsoever.

Your touch, word and good

deed which you leave behind

cannot be erased. Anonymous 

Happy Year of the Cat!     Link

I hope that in the new year

all people and all animals

are healthy and have

good luck and success!

something you get, it's

something you remember.

upside down does not

Part Of That Plan

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sunrise

Life has a much bigger plan

for you. Happiness is

part of that plan.

Health is part of that plan.

Stability is part of that plan.

Constant struggle is not.
Kris Carr

A sunset is the sun’s

fiery kiss to the night. Crystal Woods

Just believe in yourself.

Even if you don't,

pretend that you do and,

at some point, you will.

Venus Williams

1992

Someday, everything will

make perfect sense. So

for now, laugh at the confusion,

smile through the tears, be

strong and keep reminding yourself

that everything happens

for a reason.

   John Mayer

Some day after we have

mastered the winds,

the waves and gravity,

we will harness for God

the energies of love; and

then for a second time

in the history of the world,

humans will have discovered fire. Teilhard de Chardin 

Who Shall I Be Today

The thing about smart people

is that they seem like

crazy people to dumb people. Stephen Hawking
