Proud

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Every path,

every street in the world is your

walking meditation path.

Candid shot on the fly. 

I never want to make anyone uncomfortable,

though anything/anyone visible to the

public is legally fair game for a photo.

So I am expert at swinging

around like a tourist appearing to 

take random shots, 

grabbing a snap on the fly. . . 

occasionally yielding:

A Photograph. 

VERY Proud of this young man.

Son of my good friends - Ohana really -

Genshu Price.

Dad Mike suggested that G collect deposit bottles

and cans to help fund his college. (G is 13) 

Well, Genshu took it to the extreme the way energetic, smart, young people do when supported. 

Bottles4College is a 501-c 

Nonprofit that has partners at schools,

markets, and restaurants around our island!

Mom Maria Price (a WONDERFUL friend and

incidentally EXCELLENT Oahu Realtor)

took this photo on Friday Oct 1

by the Queen Liliuokalani statue

at Hawaii's State Capitol after

Genshu was recognized with an

award by the legislature! 

Follow your path, 

and let the people talk.

Sometimes I Think

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sometimes I think

there are only two

instructions we need

to follow to develop

and deepen our

spiritual life:

slow down and let go.

Persevere. There is

one dandelion that

grows from the crack

in the cement.

Let that one

dandelion be YOU.

     Margaret Aranda

Strelitzia nicolai, commonly known as the giant white bird of paradise or wild banana, is a species of banana-like plants with erect woody stems reaching a height of 6 m (20 ft), and the clumps formed can spread as far as 3.5 m (11 ft).

The 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in)-long leaves are grey-green and arranged like a fan at the top of the stems, similar to Ravenala madagascariensis.  The entire flower can be as much as 18 cm (7.1 in) high by 45 cm (18 in) long, and is typically held just above the point where the leaf fan emerges from the stem.

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Our worries always

come from our weaknesses...

Strong people can

always afford to be gentle,

only the weak are

intent on

FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE...

I would rather have a

big burden or hardship,

but have a strong back,

than turning everything

topsy-turvy and a mess. Napz Cherub Pellazo

Maturity of mind

is the capacity

to endure

Uncertainty.

       John Finley

If life were

predictable

it would cease

to be life, and

be without flavor. Eleanor Roosevelt

During periods of

root expansion

things have always

looked as

confused and

topsy-turvy

and purposeless as

they do now.

The whole Renaissance

is supposed to have

resulted from the

topsy-turvy feeling

caused by Columbus'

discovery

of a new world.

It just

shook people up.

Much of spiritual life

is self-acceptance,

maybe all of it.

      Jack Kornfield, 

Every time it feels like

the world is out of control,

all I have to do is look up,

and I remember there is an

order to everything. There is

someone bigger than

my problems,  bigger than anything

that can happen in this world.

And because of that, I can

breathe a sigh of relief.

My garden does not whet the appetite; it satisfies it. . . slakes it by proffering its natural remedy. Amid such pleasures as these have I grown old. Epicurus
