Don't You Get Weary

 A   L   O   H   A  !


Sometimes, flying 

feels too godlike 

to be attained by man. 

Sometimes, 

the world from above seems 

too beautiful, too wonderful, 

too distant for human eyes to see.     


                                  Charles A. Lindbergh

🛪



Aviation is proof that
 
given the will, we have
 
the capacity to achieve
 
the impossible.    
 

Eddie Rickenbacker












Distant Dreams of Distant Places

Sweet is the memory 

of distant friends! 

Like the mellow rays of 

the departing sun -

Ironically, when we own the 

shadow aspects of our self 

and put down our masks - 

this is when we become 

truly lovable.

Walk together, children, 

don't you get weary,

walk together, children, 

don't you get weary.

walk together, children, 

don't you get weary,

there's a great camp meeting 

in the promised land.

We're gonna walk and never tire,

walk and never tire,

walk and never tire,

there's a great camp meeting 

in the promised land!

Humble Treasures

 A  L  O  H  A !


There is not anything 

in the world stronger 

than tenderness.

     Han Suyin
















Even waste-handling 

can be cheerful!

I like the way 

the slant lids

dialogue with 

the architecture.















"Drink A Bite To Eat!"
If you love the sacred 

and despise the ordinary

you are still bobbing in 

the sea of illusion.

Linji Yixuan
























No one is useless

 in this world 

who lightens the

 burden of it

 for anyone else.

     Charles Dickens



















Pursue 

what catches your 

heart

not what catches 

your eyes.

Every-Day Astonisment

 A  L  O H  A !


The more light 

you allow within you

 the brighter the world 

you live in will be.

             Shakti Gawain
















Let your light 

shine today, and 

let your personality 

blossom, too. You don’t 

have to be a people-pleaser, 

just a people-lover.

             Beth Moore




















Stars don’t shine 

because they want 

to be seen. They 

shine because 

they are stars.

   Alexander Den Heijer
















I wish I could show you 

when you are lonely 

or in darkness, the 

astonishing light 

of your own being.

Ordinary Disguise

 A   L   O   H   A  !

I've seen and met 

angels wearing the 

disguise of ordinary people 

living ordinary lives.

   Tracy Chapman










Hope is being able 

to see that there is

light despite all 

of the darkness.

    Desmond Tutu










Patience is bitter, 

but its fruit 

is sweet.

           Aristotle 









Be a beneficial presence 

on the planet. 

Give your Gifts. 

Boldly go where no 

woman or no man 

has ever gone before.

      Michael Beckwith


𑄣𑄥𑄦


What we cannot control
we must endure.
And enduring,
we overcome.
Hold your ground
of Heaven.
Live the Laws of Love.
Whatever happens,
live in light.
And endure. No storm
lasts forever.

Love You, Fondly,

Over-Surge Saturday

 A   L   O   H   A  !

We owe more 

to our illusions than 

to our knowledge.

         Lafcadio Hearn








I felt very still 

and empty, the way 

the eye of a tornado 

must feel, moving dully 

along in the middle of 

the surrounding hullabaloo.

          Sylvia Plath










There's not a word yet, 

for old friends 

who've just met.

   Jim Henson






The artist's job is 

not to succumb 

to despair-

      Woody Allen













Dreaming Of Fish

Beyond the edge 

of the world 

there’s a space where 

emptiness and substance 

neatly overlap, where 

past and future form a 

continuous, endless loop. 

And, hovering about, 

there are signs no one 

has ever read, chords 

no one has ever heard.

Haruki Murakami


ᐸᐰᐭ


"Surge capacity is a collection of adaptive systems — mental and physical — that humans draw on for short-term survival in acutely stressful situations, such as natural disasters. But natural disasters occur over a short period, even if recovery is long. Pandemics are different — the disaster itself stretches out indefinitely.
“The pandemic has demonstrated both what we can do with surge capacity and the limits of surge capacity,” says Masten. When it’s depleted, it has to be renewed. But what happens when you struggle to renew it because the emergency phase has now become chronic?"
Good Tips:

Turning

 A   L   O   H   A  !


That which has always 

been accepted by everyone, 

everywhere, is almost 

certain to be false.

   Paul Valery










Our mind is capable 

of passing beyond 

the dividing line we 

have drawn for it. 

Beyond the pairs of 

opposites of which 

the world consists, 

other, 

new insights begin.

      Hermann Hesse












Home is everything 

you can walk to.

     Jerry Spinelli












I like long walks, 

especially when they 

are taken by people 

who annoy me.

     Noël Coward






Pixie & I are wishing 

EVERYONE

a sweet Jewish New Year!

Source Of Light

 A   L   O   H   A  !

It's not because 

things are difficult 

that we dare not,

 it's because we 

dare not that 

things are difficult.

    Seneca










A smile is the 

light in your window 

that tells others that 

there is a caring,

 sharing person inside.

Denis Waitley










We smile with our eyes too.

Good thing in a time

of masks!


Our gait, attentiveness,

the way we face and

incline our body,

what we carry

in the heart:

These are our smiles

right now, and always.






We may be six feet apart,

but facing one another

with new eyes.


Mouths covered,

Eyes wide open.






We can still say:

"Good Morning"










The first thing 

you have to identify 

when you are in 

the dark is light.

Light in your mind 

is truth.

Light in your heart

is knowledge.

Light in your soul 

is wisdom.

Light in your life is God.

Matshona Dhliwayo
