Well,
I bought groceries
and did a laundry!
And it feels like some
sort of huge achievement.
Time in mask: Just over 1 hour.
Contribution to public health?
PRICELESS!

Let's keep doing our part.
How are YOU ?

Never Dance in a Small Boat

A    L    O    H    A  !
New Blessings
are on their way
to inhabit the space
you are clearing now.







One lie spoils a thousand truths.

Those who do not

Feather Precious

A    L    O    H    A  !
When words are both true and
 kind, they can change the world
  Buddha







Turn your face to the sun and 
the shadows fall behind you.
          Maori Proverb











Why did the pigeon cross the road? 
It was the chicken’s day off.









Entered what I ate today 
into my new fitness app and it just 
sent an ambulance to my house.







 Anti-Quarantine protesters are
like teaching a pigeon to play chess:
They don't know jack about it, 
they don't wanna hear you explain it, 
in the end they knock down the pieces 
and strut around like they won the game.













Kupuna = Senior [Hawaiian]

As the parents' generation fades, the
few left were referred to as "hulu mâkua" 
as highly valued as choice feathers, 
which were the jeweled treasures 
of Hawaiian culture.  









I am determined to be cheerful and happy 
in whatever situation I may find myself. 
For I have learned that the greater part of
our misery or unhappiness is determined not 
by our circumstance but by our disposition. 
                 Martha Washington

Not Wasted

A    L    O    H    A  !
I know of only one duty, 
and that is to love. 
            Albert Camus 













Blessed are the hearts that can bend; 
they shall never be broken.

When someone loves you, 
the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name 
is safe in their mouth.
                 Billy age 4









Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes 
on the grass under trees on a summer's day, 
listening to the murmur of the water, or 
watching the clouds float across the sky,
 is by no means a waste of time.

Only The Sane

A    L    O    H    A  !

We make our friends; 
we make our enemies; but

the Truth will understand.

who are willing to admit 
that they are crazy.

When circumstances upset your peace of mind,
 lose no time in recovering your self-control, and
do not remain out of tune longer than you can help. 
Habitual recurrence to the harmony will 
increase your mastery of it.     
         Marcus Aurelius

















One can not reflect in streaming water. 
Only those who know internal peace 
can give it to others.
           Lao Tzu



















Rainbows introduce us to reflections

not the final options in life.

New Book

A    L    O    H    A  !
A new beginning. 
And things will change.
      Taylor Swift








"No, this is not the beginning of 
a new chapter in my life; 
this is the beginning of a new book! 








-That first book is already closed, ended, 
and tossed into the seas; this new book is 
newly opened, has just begun! -









- Look, it is the first page! 
And it is a beautiful one!”
       C. JoyBell C.








A bridge of silver wings stretches 
from the dead ashes of 
an unforgiving nightmare
to the jeweled vision of 
a life started anew.
