If the ride is more fly,

then you must buy.

from a cocoon some time.

Before the liberation,

comes the discomfort."

the thing I seek, but

maybe you will have

caught the spirit

of my dream.

ever-increasing wonder

and awe: the starry heavens

above me and the moral

law within me.

with no hidden agendas

still exist in this world.

Fine But

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Being positive doesn't mean

you ignore reality.

It means you maintain

hope, optimism and

faith in order to create

a better reality. Jon Gordon 

If you're lonely

when you're alone,

you're in bad company.

           Sartre

It was only a sunny smile,

and little it cost in the giving,
but like morning light

it scattered the night

and made the day worth living.
      F. Scott Fitzgerald

Pandemic Paradise

After an awful September,

Hawaii infections are low again.

Masks remain, but we are all feeling relief.

Parents watched their kids play

High School sports

in person this weekend. And

University of Hawaii football hosted

fans at the stadium for the

first time this season - or last.

Tourists will return as the Governor

welcomes them back. And winter.

As elsewhere, employers are having trouble

with staffing. How nice that workers

have a bit of power now!

you need someone to tell

Sunshine

A L O H A From Honolulu!

I spent too long in the shadows ...

I'm looking forward to

being in the light

with you.

      Sylvain Reynard

The town was glad

Comfort and simplicity

are two keys that I follow

when it comes to fashion.

   Fawad Khan

I know there is strength in

the differences between us.

I know there is comfort

where we overlap.

If I could be the sunshine

and all the days were mine

I would find a special place

to shine!

Roots and Direction

A L O H A From Honolulu!

True power means listening

to and from the heart

and having the

commitment and humility

to clear all that stands

in the way of that

heart connection. 

                 Susan Steinbrecher

Don't let the noise

of others' opinions

drown out your

own inner voice.

And most important,

have the courage to

follow your

heart and intuition.

Steve Jobs

Calotropis gigantea, the crown flower, is a species of Calotropis native to Cambodia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines,[citation needed] Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, China, Pakistan, Nepal, and tropical Africa. WIKIPEDIA

Wear a crown of

flowers on your head,

let its roots

reach your heart.

When pure sincerity 

forms within, it is

outwardly realized in

other people's hearts.

      Lao Tzu

It was possible, I knew,

to live on two planes at once—

to have one’s feet planted in

reality but pointed in

the direction of progress.

Michelle Obama

It's so simple to be wise.

Just think of something

stupid to say and

then don't say it.
