Touch Dreams

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Throw your dreams 

into space like a kite, 

and you do not know 

what it will bring back, 

a new life, a new friend, 

a new love, 

a new country.

     Anais Nin

Dreams are renewable. 

No matter what our 

age or condition, there are 

still untapped possibilities 

within us and new beauty 

waiting to be born.     

Dale Turner

Be careful what you 

water your dreams with. 

Water them with 

worry and fear 

and you will produce 

weeds that choke the

life from your dream.  . .

Water them with 

optimism and solutions and 

you will cultivate success. . .

Always be on the lookout 

for ways to turn a problem 

into an opportunity 

for success.  Always 

be on the lookout for ways 

to nurture your dream.     

Lao Tzu

A dream you dream alone 

is only a dream.

 A dream you dream

together is reality. 

         John Lennon

Try Wait

 A   L   O   H   A  !

If you are waiting for anything 

in order to live and love 

without holding back, 

then you suffer. . .

. . . Every moment is the most 

important moment of your life. 

No future time is better than 

now to let down 

your guard and love.     

   David Deida

You usually have to wait 

for that which is 

worth waiting for.     

Craig Bruce

And sure enough 

even waiting will end...

if you can just 

wait long enough.     

William Faulkner

Whatever we are waiting for -

- peace of mind, contentment, 

grace, the inner awareness 

of simple abundance -

- it will surely come to us, 

but only when we are ready 

to receive it with an open

 and grateful heart.

Is there a local dialect, or way of speaking

that marks someone as "Local" in your area?

The Boston Accent, Cockney, and the broad

Australian swagger are all well-known world-wide!

In Hawaii, all the different nationalities

working on the plantation created a way

to communicate, work together, and build

community in this new land. It is called

Pidgin. It includes foreign words (English,

Japanese, etc.) all set to the music of

Hawaiian grammar.  A Pidgin speaker

says: "Big Da Dog!" We speak pidgin

to one another and it speaks volumes.

Particularly with my light skin, I like to

let folks know I'm Da Kine Local

right away. I've been training for 

over 30 years to be a Hawaii older

person: a Kupuna (Hawaiian word).

That shtick didn't go in California,

people thought I was ignorant.

Glad we're home. Pixie is a local-

born Popoki (Cat in Hawaiian) once

more. It's actually kind of a nice break

to have the Islands mostly to ourselves,

though many work in tourism and we

feel it believe me.

Bu right now, we need to be patient,

to Aloha one another and get 

through the challenges.

Try Wait, Eh?!

A Bit Would Help

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Real wealth consists of 

things of utility and beauty,

in things that help to create 

strong, beautiful bodies

and surroundings 

inspiring to live in.

      Emma Goldman

No matter what the issue is, 

don't try to justify why 

you don't feel good.

 And don't try to justify why 

you should feel differently.

 Don't try to blame whatever it is

 you think the reason is that's 

keeping you from feeling good.

 All of that is wasted effort.

 Just try to feel better 

right now.

      Abraham 

God will not

look you over for 

medals, degrees, or diplomas, 

but for scars.

 Elbert Hubbard

"No lingering! MY TURN!"

It is easy to be solemn, 

it is so hard to be frivolous.

G K Chesterton

Too Easy!

We need a bit of frivolity right now, I'd  agree,

Clouds Passing Over

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Find a place where there's joy, 

and the joy will 

burn out the pain.

               Joseph Campbell

Being positive means that, 

rather than complaining 

about a situation, 

we learn from it. 

Being positive means 

that we accept others 

as they are, instead of 

finding fault in them or 

passing judgment on them. . .

Being positive means 

being able to view ourselves 

in the most favorable light.     

Roderick Terry

Grey skies are just

Enough Sometimes

 A  L  O  H  A  !

Sometimes

a single blossom

can be

L O U D !

Sometimes

a giant

can seem 

intimate

Sometimes

one is amazed

at what one

has become

Sometimes

a hint

of a rainbow

can be 

enough.

Always keep that 

happy attitude. 

Pretend that you are 

holding a beautiful 

fragrant bouquet.
