Tiny Potentials

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

You carry greatness disguised in tiny potentials. Israelmore Ayivor

Pink Sky Welcome

A L O H A From Honolulu!

A pink sky welcomes
beauty, joy, & promise.
A pink sky makes my
hopeful heart sing.

My heart, a feather,
light and free,
Soars with the promise,
wildly sweet.





Just keep going.
    No feeling is final.
     Rainer Maria Rilke




Funny faces works of art,
Melt your frown
and steal your heart.
So laugh along,
don't be a prude,
For silly faces
do us good!




The most valuable possession 
you can own is an open heart. 
The most powerful weapon 
you can be is an 
instrument of peace.
              Carlos Santana

Believe To Bloom

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Through the blackest night,
morning gently tiptoes,
feeling its way to dawn.
Robert Brault




Philodendron

In hushed tones of emerald green,
A philodendron shyly seen,
Unfurls its leaves in nature's art,
A growing, green, and gentle heart.





If you want to live in peace, 
you must not tell 
everything that you know, nor 
judge everything that you see.
Respect for the rights 
of others is peace.
          Mexican Proverb



This is the end of yesternight,
This is the hour the heart is laid
Open to life!
Frances M. Frost, "Day"



It is by believing
in roses that one
brings them to bloom.
French Proverb

You ARE

A L O H A From Honolulu!


People are like
stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.Elisabeth Kübler-Ross







Do you have someone
that you wouldn't trade
for a million dollars
You have a
million dollar relationship!




True friends are those
who lift you up
when your heart's wings
forget how to fly.
Anonymous






If it seems a childish thing
to do, do it in remembrance
that you are a child. Frederick Buechner





  


The first duty of
a revolutionary is to
get away with it. Abbie Hoffman

With nimble heart

The world unfolds
new paths to find.

200 Feet Tall

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Courtesy: Mike Price
The world is full of magical things 
patiently waiting for our wits
to grow sharper.
           Bertrand Russell



Tropical Traffic Emerald giants line the street, Iron horses inch along and compete
Palm trees sway in sun-kissed skies,
Mirrored on a windshield, *sigh*
Contrasts dance, a curious scene,
Paradise glimpsed, on metal sheen.
But wait, a uku
lele's tune,
Spills from a truck, a joyful croon!
 Paradise is still there, waiting
beyond the traffic jam.



Elaborate Bamboo In 
A Dragon Pot For
Lunar New Year Good Luck

Today or any day 
that phone may ring 
and bring good news. 
   Ethel Waters





The kapok tree, Ceiba pentandra,
or silk-cotton tree,
grows up to 200 feet tall,
 10 feet across at the trunk!


A kind heart is a beautiful
thing to share, but
don't forget to extend
those amazing traits to yourself.
You are worthy of your
own love and care.
Morgan Richard Olivier

Refreshed and Anew

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Canoe Looks To Sea
Glorious sunshine, morning grace, Perfect moments, time and space. Happy sun, with gentle might, Banishes the darkest night.



He Looks To She
When a person doesn't have gratitude, something is missing in his or her humanity. A person can almost be defined by his or her attitude toward gratitude. Elie Wiesel



Critter Running Free
Even the smallest bird
can carry the biggest dream.
Native American Proverb
  



Twinned blooms in vibrant dance, Birds of paradise, share a trance.
Exotic dreams on slender stems, Jungle fire in silent hymns.



As each day comes to us refreshed and anew, so does my gratitude renew itself daily. The breaking of the sun over the horizon is my grateful heart dawning upon a blessed world. Terri Guillemets
