Breathe Aloha

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Perhaps the most comforting

thing about growing old

gracefully is the increasing

ability not to take things

too seriously. 

    Henry Miller

The source of your light

will determine your level of

bright radiating to others.

Brandy L. Verdin

In their eyes shine stars
of wisdom and courage
to guide us to
the heavens.
    Jodie Mitchell

It's a small world, but
I wouldn't want to
have to paint it.
Steven Wright

Take a breath,

nice and slow,

Feel the love

begin to grow.

(Breathe in)

Aloha fills your chest,

(Breathe out)

Love for all, 

hopes for the best.

House Sunshine

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If I could capture a
piece of the rainbow,
I'd capture its
beauty and grace.
I'd wrap it around me
like a warm blanket,
And I'd never
feel cold again.

If I could capture a
piece of the rainbow,
I'd capture its hope
and its cheer.
I'd hang it on my
wall in a frame,
To bring joy
throughout the year.

We are not what we know

but what we are willing to learn.

Mary Catherine Bateson

Instead of worrying about

what you cannot control,

shift your energy to

what you can create.

Roy T. Bennett

The wise person doesn't

give the right answers,

but poses the right questions.

Claude Levi-Strauss

A good laugh

is sunshine in the house.

The Quality Of Love Determines

A L O H A From Honolulu!

At heart we may yearn for distant shores, But inertia won't release the oars. To break that spell is a decision we make, our growth resides in the choice to awake.

Cloudia

Let's go to the beach

in this fun sunny car!

The surfboards are

almost longer

than the Fiat!

Your mind is a garden,

your thoughts are the seeds.

You can grow flowers,

or you can grow weeds.

William Wordsworth

Convivial

As day surrenders,

to skies ablaze,

Our faces glow

in golden haze.

Embers paint

the western sky,

We gather 'round

our heartfelt tie.

Laughter spills

like golden wine, This feast for friends

such sweet design. It's tapestries

of joy we weave, In moments when

we know, not believe.

For time suspended

holds us fast In this perfection

when day has passed.

In mellowing light

all peace descends,

Worries banished

friendship transcends.

This changing hour

as stars begin to gleam,

We share our cherished

joyful dream.

Cloudia

The quality of our love

determines the quality

of our wisdom and

together these determine

our quality as a person.

BE

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Try to be the rainbow

in somebody's day.

   Dr. Maya Angelou

With blossoms ablaze,

a riot of hue, They paint our landscape,

vibrant and new.

No thought for decorum

just joyful display, vivid technicolor clash

chases winter away. So let's take a cue

from this bold, floral glee, Embrace vibrant colors,

and learn to just be.

Cloudia

Life calls to life,

to shake off sleep,

Our deeper magic

rises. It leaps!

Embrace the light,

let colors sing, May joy take root,

reborn this Spring.

Dare show your colors

Allow your spirits to dance free, Bloom forth, dear friend,

and simply

Breathe

Just breathe

and be.

Cloudia

The most important decision

you make is to be

in a good mood.

The Census Doesn't Count It

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Rainbows are made

of small raindrops. Happy lives are made from acts of kindness Amit Ray

The busy bee has

no time for sorrow.

William Blake

[See It?]

Express love as freely

as bees love to buzz.

Shelley Sophia Crawford

Life is about

creating yourself. George Bernard Shaw

Every person passing through this life

will unknowingly leave something

and take something away.

Most of this "something" cannot

be seen or heard or numbered

or scientifically detected or counted.

It's what we leave in the minds

of other people and what they

leave in ours. Memory.

The census doesn't count it.

Nothing counts without it.

Two Lives

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We all have two lives.

The second one starts

when we realize

we only have one.

   Tom Hiddleston

When the going gets rough-

turn to wonder.

 Parker Palmer

Yawns half-suppressed,

with young energy blessed,

High-fives and fist bumps,

teamwork's the best.

Sure work's the reason,

but they are first Polynesian

Joking whispers, coffee cup sips,

Sharing stories with playful quips.

For laughter makes

their burdens light,

This team that "clicks"

 makes a future that's bright.

Work isn't just toil,

it's stories unfurled,

Connections that bind,

Tomorrow to be built.

Cloudia 

A playful path is the

shortest road to happiness.

Bernie DeKoven
