A L O H A From Honolulu!

Aloha!
Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.
Chinese Proverb

The great science to live happily
is to live in the present.
Pythagoras



W A I K I K I
Almost everything will work again
if you unplug it for a
few minutes...including you.

Shadow Beauty
In hush of dawn's embrace
kissed by morning's sigh.
Mystery unfolding
Secrets for beholding
Beauty exists in many forms,
Even in shadows,
Where darkness transforms.

Learn to relax.
Your body is precious, as it
houses your mind and spirit.
Inner peace begins
with a relaxed body.

Friday Faceoff




In a world of green,
a splash of delight, A happy little flower,
so bright. Yellow petals, sunshine's embrace, Blue accents, a touch of grace. Petals unfurl, like
a butterfly's wings, Dancing in the breeze,
while sunbeams sing. You fill the air
with fragrance sweet, A symphony of colors,
So lovely to meet.

Elementary

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 To the illuminated mind the whole world sparkles with light. Ralph Waldo Emerson




Shadow Drinking Coffee
To be bowed by grief is folly;
Naught is gained by melancholy;
Better than the pain of thinking,
Is to steep the sense in drinking.
 Alcaeus

I recommend Coffee!





 It's surprising how much memory
is built around things
unnoticed at the time.
Barbara Kingsolver






What I want is so simple
I almost can't say it:
elementary kindness.
Barbara Kingsolver

One Word Peace

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the
other person's point of view and
see things from that person's angle
as well as from your own.
Don't find fault, find a remedy.
Henry Ford 



In order to understand the world,
 one has to turn away from it
 on occasion.
Albert Camus



Better than a thousand hollow words,
 is one word that brings peace.
 Buddha



If I could reach up and hold a star
for every time you've made me smile,
the entire evening sky
would be in the palm of my hand.
  Unknown Lover
