Kindly and Big

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Carry so much love

in your heart

that there's no room

left for hatred.

  Rithvik Singh

Speak kindly and

carry a big heart.

Two duties belong to our souls.
One is to reverently marvel.
The other is humbly to endure...

Julian of Norwich

An angel comes
to me at night
Filling me with
heavenly delight.
Whatever kind
of day I've had,
invites me
gratefully to bed.
Cloudia Charters 

I have spent my life

laboriously doing nothing. Grotius Hugo

The REAL sound of Philadelphia:

The Joy The Day Will Be

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Thank you, sun,

for waking me, With light and hope

setting shadows free.

A grateful heart,

I offer thee, For this bright gift

O happily!

To free us from the

expectations of others,

to give us back to ourselves-

-there lies the great, singular

power of self-respect. Joan Didion

No amount of regret

changes the past,

no amount of anxiety

changes the future, but

any amount of gratitude

changes the present.

    Ann Voskamp

The trick to forgetting the big picture is to

look at everything close-up. Chuck Palahniuk

This Time

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Genius is the recovery

of childhood at will. Arthur Rimbaud

If you tend to a flower,

it will bloom, no matter

how many weeds

surround it.

Matshona Dhliwayo

Throw away the idea that

you need to agree with

someone 100% on every

topic to be friends,

partners or colleagues.

There is beauty in difference,

and there's power in

understanding another person.

Sylvester McNutt

Happiness held

is the seed;

Happiness shared

is the flower.

John Harrigan

This time in my life is

dedicated to healing deeply,

while attracting happiness. Sylvester McNutt III

This trail of sparks

O fleeting sight, A dragon thrashes

shedding light.

Through evening's sky

it twists and darts, Jewel that thrills

our twilight hearts.

Cloudia 

Flowers are the music

of the ground from

earth’s lips spoken

without sound.

Edwin Curran

I am enough of a realist

to understand that I

can't reach every child,

but I am more of an optimist

to get up every day and try.

Preston Morgan

E lei kau, e lei ho'oilo

i ke aloha.

Love is worn like a Lei

through the summers

and the winters. 

The highest goal

that we can achieve

is amazement.

A Certain Set

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Three furry friends

this playful pack,

Tail wag greetings,

never look back.

A loyal trio

this furry crew,

loved by all

the whole street through.

Belly rubs from

friendly hands,

Sharing treasures

sticks are grand!

No matter where

their walk may lead,

These neighbor dogs

are a joyful breed!

The sun is shining

through the rain.

This is the time when

foxes have their weddings.

         Mother to Child

      In Akira Kurosawa’s film “Dreams”

Fall in love with the energy of the mornings

trace your fingers along the lull of the afternoons...

...take the spirit of the evenings in your arms kiss it deeply. Sanober Khan

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. Hugh Downs

Meaning And Transform

A L O H A From Honolulu!

True progress quietly

and persistently moves

along without notice.

Francis de Sales

Facts which at first seem

improbable will, even on

scant explanation, drop the

cloak which has hidden them

and stand forth in

naked and simple beauty.

Galileo Galilei

You don't have to swim across a river dodging bullets. You don't have to race in an ambulance to the scene of an emergency. Bless those who do! But bless those too who simply keep the good and the true alive in their hearts.

Where it radiates throughout

their lives and acts.

There are many forms of heroism

and they all have their place.

Cloudia

Age is giving me

the two best gifts:

softness and illumination Anne Lamott

I have always believed, and

I still believe, that whatever good

or bad fortune may come our way

we can always give it meaning and

transform it into something of value. Hermann Hesse
