Possession of Passion

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Purple Passion Flower

Anyone tries to

possess a flower will

have to watch

its beauty fading. -








- But if

you simply look at

a flower on a field,

you will keep it forever,



















because the flower is part

of the evening and

the sunset and the smell -










- of damp earth and the

clouds on the horizon.

Paulo Coelho







When life is sweet,

say thank you and

celebrate.

When life is bitter,

say thank you

and grow.
Shauna Niequist

Branch Light Moon Light

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Where we are,

there is light.

The wind blew hard from

the east and the trees

rustled their branches.

K. Ancrum






The greatest weapon 

against stress is our 

ability to choose one

thought over another.

  William James

As for me I will follow

the path of the

pink bunnies.

Magenta Periwinkle







The road to success is

always under construction.

Arnold Palmer








Looking but not seeing

is the hearing but

not understanding

of the eye.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana











Poetry is inspired by 

the elements of 

random thoughts, 

an overflow of gazing 

at the unseen.

Remembers

A L O H A From Honolulu!
To be angry at something 

means you’ve forgotten: 

That everything that 

happens is natural. 

That the responsibility 

is theirs, not yours. 

    Marcus Aurelius





Sour, sweet, bitter, 

pungent, all 

must be tasted. 

Chinese proverb












It is beautiful to talk 

about beautiful things 

and even more beautiful

to silently gaze at them.

 Dejan Stojanovic









Only in the shattering 


can the rebuilding occur.

 Barbara Marciniak








You must stick 

to your conviction, but 

be ready to abandon 

your assumptions. 

Denis Waitley

Ere Responsibility

A L O H A From Honolulu!


So many things   
are unimportant. 
You’re wise 
when you focus on 
the few that truly are. 
Maxime Lagacé









Character — the willingness 

to accept responsibility 

for one’s own life — 

is the source from which 

self-respect springs. 

     Joan Didion












Is There A Dermatologist In The House!?

The greatest gift 

you ever give is 

your honest self.

    Fred Rogers







Crinum asiaticum, 
giant crinum lily, 
grand crinum lily, 
spider lily, buds
[And Below]








Take your life in your own hands, and what happens? A terrible thing: no one to blame. Erica Jong 









The child is in me still 

and sometimes not so still.

     Fred Rogers

Another Shot At Life

A L O H A From Honolulu!


After more than a year 

of lock-down, 

returning aspects of my 

normal life seem 

like a wonderland!










An early-morning walk is 

a blessing for the whole day.


Henry David Thoreau







Ho! Ho! Ho! 

To the bottle I go

To heal my heart 

and drown my woe

Rain may fall, 

and wind may blow

And many miles be still to go

But under a tall tree 

will I lie

            And let the clouds 

[Cloudias]

go sailing by

        J.R.R. Tolkien


  




Hope may seem

a fragile thing.

Until you really

hear it sing.






Given another shot at life,

I would seize every

minute of it …

look at it and really see it …

try it on … live it …

exhaust it …

and never give

that minute back

until there was

nothing left of it.
Erma Bombeck
