Thins

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Judge nothing, you will be happy.
Forgive everything,
you will be happier.
Love everything,
you will be happiest.
Sri Chinmoy




There is in art the notion
of less is more,
which is to say,
you don't torture a painting
that has already confessed.
Robert Breault




The only thing necessary
for the triumph of evil is
for good people
to do nothing. Edmund Burke



A smile
Thins the veil
Between
Heaven & Earth,
Between souls.

New Moment

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Flowers have spoken to me
more than I can tell
in written words.
They are the
hieroglyphics of angels,
loved by all men for
the beauty of their character,
though few can decipher
even fragments of their
meaning.
Lydia M. Child




New morning, new moment 
of miracles.
        Lailah Gifty Akita





Josh Green MD is our current Lieutenant Governor
and an Emergency Physician. He proved himself
as an effective leader being in charge of Hawaii's
#1 in USA covid response, He was on social
media explaining & sharing numbers and
news all day every day. He found
hard-to-get supplies; He was
everywhere meeting people and 
making it happen for us in an
uncertain times. He reassured
and he led.

He and his family became the target of our
SMALL minority of anti-vax types who dogged
him with virulent antisemitic attacks
including bullhorns all night outside his home.

The islands have been largely free of
the oldest hate and our tiny Jewish
population of the islands has had
an out-sized positive influence
including one recent (R) Governor
and the massive Weinberg Charities.

After enduring all that, and working
hard all day, he walked his
neighborhood in the early morning
hours, tearing down
antisemitic flyers before his young 
teen children could see them.

THEN he campaigned for Governor!

He has obvious Aloha for people,
and a broad humane intellect.
I am beyond happy today!



State Representative, Dist 24

(D) TAM, Adrian - 4,239 / 64.8%

(R) ANDERSON, Jillian T.- 2,010/ 30.7%

In Hawaii, we hold signs with our
candidates and wave at the drivers
on their way to and from work.
I got a lot of exercise with my
State Representative Adrian this cycle!

Thrilled that my young neighbor
has been Re- Elected!




I'm not a political animal,
I'm a curious animal.

There are as many worlds 
as there are kinds of days, 
and as an opal changes 
its colors and its fire to
match the nature of a day, 
so do I.

Where promises are made
to be broken,
it would be nice to see words
come back into power.
Chuck Palahniuk



What treasure 
have you forgotten about?

It's most likely hiding
in plain sight.

Something, or someone,
that once meant
the world to you-
Discovering them
was like discovering
a whole new world.

What makes 
your life
rich?

What is your
overlooked
treasure?
Tell us in comments!

I know it is a bad thing
to break a promise, but
I think now that it is a worse thing
to let a promise break you.

Laugh at the Odds

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 We are here to
laugh at the odds,
and live our lives so well
that Death will
tremble to take us.

The boat can't cross the river
by paddling on one side.
It should be paddled on
the opposite side as well.
That's called balance. If that
is lost, the boat will flip.
