Remember

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Remember there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end. Scott Adams




Self-compassion The gentle rain, Nourishes my roots To ease the strain. Recharge my spirit Let it mend, Replenishing my Other-compassion To continue to spend.

Start living now
and count each day
as a life in itself.

Those who dwell among the beauties
and mysteries of the earth are
never alone or weary of life.

Thank You Pixie

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It is a serious thing
just to be alive
on this fresh morning.
Mary Oliver




No flower, but a hopeful gleam,
Red Ti plant a tropic dream. Though deemed a plant,
It's beauty shines, Testament to those who
Read between the lines.




Be Heartful Not Hurtful




Joy is both a gift and a practice, but it isn’t primarily a feeling any more than self-control or faithfulness are feelings. It is a muscle we can strengthen with exercise. Tish Harrison Warren





I’m here to tell you That you’ve got What it takes!

Honest Daylight

A L O H A From Honolulu!

What we achieve inwardly
will change outer reality.
   Plutarch 




Beyond the screen,
A world awaits,
Where sunlight gleams
All shadows abate.

No longer bound
By others’ views,
Spread your wings
Soar and choose.

Break free from shadows
Find your way,
To the Honest light of day.
   Cloudia & Pixie



Australian Tea Tree

Whoever is happy
will make others happy too.
Anne Frank



The female warrior knows how
to fight without violence.
She knows when not to
raise her sword, but
instead hold up her heart.
Her shield is not a defense
against others but
a shelter for all.

Simple Enough

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Angels of the morning sky
Dancing with the clouds so high,
Casting down such golden light,
To fill our hearts with joyful delight.




Dear gentle breeze, 0 sweet perfume,
Nature's beauty in full bloom.
Together cherish this precious day,
Share our spirits to soar and play.




Stay wild, moon child.
Riitta Klint



The most important things
are really very simple. But
they encompass the most complex.
It takes a lifetime to get
simple enough to understand them.
Confucius.

Busy casting spells, but
always making time for
a little magic in her glass.

Amidst the city's bustling throng,
A wizardess, her day is long
With phone in hand and potion near,
A moment's peace, some morning cheer.

As You Choose

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Just think how happy
you would be if you lost
everything you have right now,
and then got it back again.
    Frances Rodman







Courtesy is a gift
we give one another.




E Komo Mai means “Welcome"
or “enter" in Hawaiian

Mature Fruit,
and Mature People, Are the Sweetest!




Your life will be as lovely as you choose to make it. When there is a bump in the road do you take it personally and amplify it with complaint, or continue down the road? None of us can control life but we can choose our response to it.

Close To Healing Or

A L O H A From Honolulu!
A well-ordered life 
is like climbing a tower; 
the view halfway up 
is better than the 
view from the base, 
and it steadily becomes 
finer as the 
horizon expands.
                 William Lyon Phelps





The purpose of life is not to be happy.
It is to be useful, to be honorable,
to be compassionate, to have it
make some difference that
you have lived and lived well.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson




Many of life's failures are
experienced by people who
did not realize how close
they were to success
when they gave up.
  Thomas Edison



We can avoid the horrors of autocracy by preventing the forces of reaction from coming to power. Joy and optimism can play a big part in this. Far from being cringe-worthy, joy is precious and noble and also the basis of effective anti-authoritarian strategy.
Ruth Ben-Ghiat 



Hate has talked so loudly for so long.
Greed has talked so loudly for so long.
Liars have talked so loud for so long. Love has to stop whispering. Marianne Williamson



In the end, it's not the
years in your life that count.
It's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln

Wishing You Thin Worries

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Canoe Paddlers in the Sky!

A good paddler knows
when to push and
when to rest.
   Unknown Voyager





Subtlety paints The morning sky, Waves crash sweetly, A lullaby.
Surfer stands Against the light, Lost in thought And nature's might.
Salty hair and Sun-kissed skin, A peaceful moment, Worries start to thin.
In Waikiki's embrace We're lucky to find our place, Souls well connected To nature's awesome grace.
Cloudia Charters


White Orchids
I get up every morning and it's going to be a great day. You never know when it's going to be over so I refuse to have a bad day. Paul Henderson




Every time you remain calm in
a challenging, upsetting situation,
your calm super power grows.
Pixie
