"What day is it?" asked Pooh

A  L  O  H  A !

" The greatest good 

you can do for another 

is not just share 

your riches, 

but to reveal to him

 his own. "

              Disraeli 

" Youth is the time to 

go flashing from one end 

of the world to the other to 

try the manners 

of different nations; 

to hear the chimes 

at midnight;

 to see the sunrise in town 

and country...

write halting verses, 

run a mile 

to see a fire, and 

wait all day long in

 the theatre to applaud. . . "

Robert Louis Stevenson

"What day is it?" asked Pooh.

 "It's today," squeaked Piglet. 

"My favorite day," said Pooh.

Memories of Flight

A  L  O  H  A !

" Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

It's not warm when she's away

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

And she's always gone too long

Anytime she goes away -

- Wonder this time where she's gone

Wonder if she's gone to stay

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

And this house just ain't no home

Anytime she goes away -

- I know, I know, I know, I know,

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,

I know, I know. . . . .

Horizontals

A  L  O  H  A !

" My dream 

has always been 

to suspend myself in space 

when I write, and

 lying horizontal in bed 

is the closest 

to doing that. "

                        Richard Powers

" Not only is there a

  right to be happy,

 there is a 

duty to be happy. -

" - So much sadness 

exists in the world

 that we are all 

under obligation to 

contribute

as much joy as

 lies within our powers. "

                   John S. Bonnell

Can I play? 
Is THIS horizontal?
Does this count?
Am I happy? . . . 
[oh bother!]

signifies it! "

Policy # 6

I bring my gifts

wherever I go.

When I feel bereft

I remain at home.

But if I must go

I'm humbler still,

remembering others

who daily labor up

such hills.

Wish I was getting

I Have Seen

Immigrants ARE America; ARE Hawaii

in stony places -

And kind things done 

by men with ugly faces -

- And the gold cup won 

by the worst horse

 at the races, 

So I trust too.”
