Simply Joy

A L O H A From Honolulu!

To the illuminated mind

the whole world

sparkles with light.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It's a good thing that
when God created the
rainbow he didn't consult a
decorator or he would still
be picking colors.
Sam Levenson

Suspended high daring feat!
Canvas of glass reflections to greet.
With steady hand and focused eye,
Paints with water an azure sky.

Dances on air, delicate grace!
Master of angles,

of time, and of space.
So let us applaud

this overlooked art,
Of window washers

with grateful heart.
Pixie

Dwell within

gentle quiet flame,

With simple joy

transmute my pain.

Cloudia Charters

What I want is so simple
I almost can't say it:
elementary kindness.
Barbara Kingsolver

Different Horizons - Different Places

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We cross the stream of life
at different places.
Some wade through the
shallows in a drought, others
have to swim across
deep waters in a storm.
Charles Edward Jerningham

I certainly don't regret

my experiences because

without them, I couldn't

imagine who or where

I would be today.

Life is an amazing gift

to those who have overcome

great obstacles, and

attitude is everything!
Sasha Azevedo

Each bird must sing

with his own throat.

Henrik Ibsen

It's so simple to be wise.

Just think of something

stupid to say and

say the opposite.

Time Is

A L O H A From Honolulu!

True wisdom lies in gathering the

precious things

out of

each day as

it goes by.

E. S. Bouton

When one door closes,

another opens;

but we often

look so long and

so regretfully

upon the closed

door that we do

not see the one

that has opened

for us.

Alexander Graham Bell

Time is a circus,

always packing up

and moving away.

Ben Hecht

It was a night so beautiful that
your soul seemed hardly able to
bear the prison

of the body.

W. Somerset Maugham

Be true, be kind,

be strong of heart. Do all you can,

play well your part. Let spirit guide

and wisdom mend. Then what you keep

is what you spend.

How To Be A Beautiful Sunset

A L O H A From Honolulu!

To keep the heart unwrinkled, to be hopeful, kindly, cheerful, reverent--that is to triumph over old age. Thomas Bailey Aldrich

A human life is a

story told by God.

Hans Christian Andersen

Do not watch the clock.

Do what it does.

Keep going.

Sam Levenson

Wisdom is the perception of the unimportance of the things we call great, and of the importance of the things we call small. Charles Edward Jerningham
