Milk's Leap

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Behind the fronds, a fiery birth,
Sun ignites the sleeping Earth.
Golden fingers seeking find,
Palm trees swaying heart and mind.

Banana Tree

You can't teach calculus
to a chimpanzee.
So just share your banana.
John Rachel

The secret of life is

enjoying the passage of time.

James Taylor

There's a period of life when we swallow a knowledge of ourselves and it becomes either good or sour inside. Pearl Bailey

A lion does not flinch at

laughter coming from a hyena.

A gorilla does not budge from a

banana thrown at it by a monkey.

A nightingale does not stop

singing its beautiful song at

the intrusion of an

annoying woodpecker. Suzy Kassem

Cheese is milk's leap

toward immortality.

Clifton Fadiman

There is no sense in crying

over spilt milk.

Why bewail what is done

and cannot be recalled?

Sophocles

Imperfection Most Sublime

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Close your eyes,

let sunlight paint

Her soft brushstrokes

upon your soul.

In quietude remember

The child who knew how

to make herself whole.

Stars my ceiling

moon my guide

Peace within

dreams applied.

The shell may be

built on a curve, but

the pearl within is perfect.

Imperfections can give birth

to the most sublime beauty.

    Rumi

Some people, no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty - they merely move it from their faces into their hearts. Martin Buxbaum

Excites

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We tend to look for greatness
always in somebody else
rather than yourself.
Go inside and
get your sound.
Carlos Santana

What do you see

a woman? A man?

Someone like you?

Someone strange?

Or do you see a heart

and a soul? Because

that is what matters

to us when we

truly understand.

The point of good behavior
is to communicate our
respect for others.
Chogyam Trungpa

Respond to every call that excites your spirit. Rumi

Charming Gardeners

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Gratitude is a currency that we can mint for ourselves, and spend without fear of bankruptcy. Fred De Witt Van Amburgh

Life's like a movie, write your own ending. Keep believing, keep pretending. Jim Henson

Let us be grateful to people

who make us happy,

they are the charming gardeners

who make our souls blossom.

Marcel Proust

Always act like you are

wearing an invisible crown.

Laugh Light

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Next time a sunrise

steals your breath

or a meadow of flowers

leave you speechless,

remain that way.

Say nothing,

and listen as Heaven

whispers, do you like it?

I did it just for you.

Max Lucado

Night does not show things,

it suggests them. It disturbs

and surprises us

with its strangeness.

It liberates forces within us

which are dominated by our

reason during the daytime.

Brassai

Finding solace in a face.

Gentle knowing grace,

Map of kindness, 

A heart benign

Reflecting the good

That we hope to find!

Shield us gently

With love's embrace,

May our laughter light

The world's soft space.

Moat and Drawbridge

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Let laughter dance,
Let tears find grace,
In every heart
A sunlit space

Raise your words,

not voice.

It is rain that

grows flowers,

not thunder.
  Rumi

Trust life, and
it will teach you,
in joy and sorrow,
all you need to know.
James Baldwin

Let kindness be the moat,

where worries drown,
And laughter, the drawbridge,
where blessings are found.

Stunning To Accept

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Boat we lived aboard for 20 years in Waikiki

Sometimes I go about

in pity for myself

and all the while

a great wind carries

me across the sky

Green is the fresh emblem

of well founded hopes.

In blue the spirit can wander,

but in green it can rest.

   Mary Webb

Let laughter ring,

A bell in open air

Let joy bloom tender, Dawn's first rose, Unfurling petals

where sunlight grows.

One of the blessings of age

is that most of us get along

with ourselves better than

when we were young.

It is stunning to

accept yourself Anne Lamott
