How Many Few Many

A L O H A From Honolulu!

It takes few words
to tell the truth.
   Chief Joseph





Could a greater miracle
take place than for us to
look through each other’s
eyes for an instant?
Thoreau





Weak eyes are fondest
of glittering objects.
Thomas Carlyle







A proverb has
three characteristics:
few words, good sense,
and a fine image. Moses ibn Ezra






Where words are restrained,
the eyes often talk
a great deal.

Focus on the Few

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




As we are looking back 
And then we'll Understand 
We held gold dust
In our hands.
  Tori Ellen Amos






True gold fears no fire. Chinese Proverb



 Go somewhere
you've never been.
Listen to someone you think
may have nothing in common with you. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends.
Check in on yourself.
Enjoy the ride.

They Say We All Travel

A L O H A From Honolulu!

They say life is a highway
and we all travel
our own roads,
some good, some bad, yet
each is a blessing
of its own. Jess "Chief" Brynjulson





Life is beautiful
and meaningful indeed.
I took pleasure when I could.
I acted clearly and morally
and without regret.
I am very lucky.
Always keep your smile.
That's how I explain
my long life. Jeanne Louise Calment

21 February 1875 – 4 August 1997,
Supercentenarian, oldest human whose
age is well documented, with a lifespan of
122 years and 164 days. She is the only person
verified to have lived to the age of 120
and beyond. Wikipedia




The only impossible journey
is the one you never begin.
Anon Y. Mouse







Growth is painful.
Change is painful. But
nothing is as painful as
staying stuck somewhere
you don't belong. Mandy Hale




Crazy wisdom is, of course, the
opposite of conventional wisdom.
It is wisdom that deliberately
swims against the current in
order to avoid being swept along
in the numbing wake...
wisdom that evolves when one,
while refusing to avert one's gaze
from the sorrows and injustices
of the world, insists on joy
in spite of everything
Tom Robbins

Pictures of Infinite Beauty

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Sunsets are so beautiful
that they almost seem as
if we were looking through
the gates of Heaven.
John Lubbock










It is almost impossible
to watch a sunset
and not dream. Bern Williams

Kigelia is a genus of flowering
plants in the family Bignoniaceae.
The genus consists of only one species, Kigelia africana, which occurs throughout tropical Africa. The so-called sausage tree grows a poisonous fruit that is up to 60 cm (2 feet) long, weighs about 7 kg (15 pounds), and resembles a sausage in a casing.

Nature is painting for us,
day after day, pictures
of infinite beauty if only we
have the eyes to see them.

Some Light

A L O H A From Honolulu!

What we focus on outside
is a reflection of
what we feel inside.
Anonymous




People who have had
little self-reflection
live life in a huge
reality blind spot.
Bryant McGill





An awake heart is
like a sky that pours light.
   Hafiz



I try to live in the luminosity of things. Meia Geddes



















Remember that your
dominating thoughts attract, 
through a definite law of nature.
Be careful what your
thoughts dwell upon.
 Napoleon Hill





The positive energy and 
love we give to others,
heals our own wounds.
  Angie Karan

Every Morning Walk

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Boulders By the Beach

 There’s a thing, and I don’t
know what to term it —
old-age adolescence?
A thing that we’re
going through, that we’ve
never gone through.
It’s like a weird puberty of sorts,
becoming older and having different perspectives on things.
Jeff Bridges,
Age 71, Battled cancer, Hospitalized
with covid, now appearing in
"The Old Man" on American TV.
(Excellent BTW)




I’m an introvert…
I love being by myself,
love being outdoors,
love taking a long walk
with my dogs, and
looking at the trees,
flowers, the sky.
    Audrey Hepburn




Do your little bit of good
where you are; it’s
those little bits of good
put together that
overwhelm the world Desmond Tutu

Sometimes I look back
on my life and
I’m seriously impressed
I am still alive.
     A. Nony Mouse
                     (Me too!)



Don’t let the fear
of what could happen
make nothing happen.








The best bike is
the one you're on, The best road is
the one you're traveling, The best destination is
wherever you're headed, The best time to get there
is whenever you arrive. Foster Kinn

Pixie is pleased that
I've given up motorcycling
after 50+ years.
Half a century with
only minor scrapes, is
more than many
get to enjoy!
Now I'm Walking...
