Optimism 102

A L O H A From Honolulu!

There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will. Epictetus

You cant meet people

anywhere but

where they are.

Every year of my life I grow more convinced

that it is wisest and best

to fix our attention on the beautiful and

good, and dwell as

little as possible on the dark and the base. Richard Cecil

We are all doing

public relations for

what we believe in.

I don't pretend to understand the Universe - it's a great deal bigger than I am. Thomas Carlyle

Mingling Magic

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The most beautiful tide is the sweep of your heart against mine. Sanober Khan

The magic of the street

is the mingling of the

errand and the epiphany. Rebecca Solnit

This is Sesame Street.

A place where people,

birds, monsters all live

in perfect harmony. Phil Donahue

Even the poorest street is

rich with people on it and

even the richest street is

poor without people on it!

things and can't decide,

take both.

If Realized

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If you realized how powerful

your thoughts are,

you would never think

a negative thought.

If it takes your breath away, then you'll fit in nicely. If you don't feel anything, then maybe you don't belong here. Veronica Randolph Batterson

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, it empties today of its strength. Corrie ten Boom

Life, for all its privations, is a luminous thing. You have to risk it. Jeanette Winterson

My fake plants died because
I did not pretend

to water them.

because it's easy,
but because we
thought it would
be easy.

Meaning Gift

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The meaning of life

is to find your gift.

The purpose of life is

to give it away. Pablo Picasso

Advice I would like to

give my younger self?

Worry less. Appreciate more!

Foil surfing (or surf foiling) is the sport of riding a

surfboard which has a hydrofoil attached...

This allows the surfboard to fly above the water.

The surfer is essentially surfing the foil

but riding the board. Foil surfing offers a

whole new edge and excitement to surfing.

Be careful not to act like the

people who made you feel bad

Love is but a song we sing Fear's the way we die You can make the mountains ring Or make the angels cry Though the bird is on the wing And you may not know why Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another

Good News

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 How can I claim

to understand another

when I am a 

mystery to myself?

Spathodea campanulata,

commonly known as the African tulip tree

Respond intelligently even 

to unintelligent treatment.

                Lao Tzu 

The lovely flowers embarrass me,

They make me regret

I am not a bee.

Emily Dickinson

Word are like bees–

some create honey and

others leave a sting.

Call For The Grandest

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Call for the grandest

of all earthly spectacles,

what is that? It is

the sun going to his rest.

Thomas de Quincey

Looking back over the years,

sure there are things I

would do differently.

But that's different from regret

because I'm glad I do see

those situations & people

differently now. It's called

growth and perspective.

And it also makes me patient

with others. Because sometimes

they just don't see it yet.

But they will get there

as I have, gratefully.

The best people don't

try to instruct you. They

just invite you to walk

along if you like. And

there's something so

interesting about them that

you do want to walk

with them a while. . .

If you walk the footsteps

of a stranger, you'll learn

things you never knew

you never knew

Walt Disney

Every positive thought

is a silent prayer which will change your life. Bryant McGill
