Defiant Kindness

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Defiant kindness
doesn't ignore injustice, it
chooses compassion as its weapon.
It disrupts with love, challenges
with empathy, and fights
for change with grace.

The light at the

end of the tunnel is not

an illusion, the tunnel is.

Anna Quindlen

God put each person

here for a purpose. Ronald Reagan

The world needs your kindness,

even when it seems like

it doesn't deserve it.

Choose love, even

when it's hard.

Be the light, even

when it's dark.

Unknown

True kindness isn't passive;

it's a fierce, unwavering

commitment to doing what's

right, even when it's hard.

Smile, it is the key

that fits the lock

of everyone's heart. Anthony J. D'Angelo 

  Like the hummingbird      
sipping nectar from every flower, 
  I fly joyfully through my days, 
   seeing beauty in everything.  

 Amethyst Wyldfyre 

A smile confuses

an approaching frown.

Anonymous

Each smile a star, a beacon light, convivial warmth this tropic night. Lei-clad hearts, forever bound, Memories made, friendships crowned

Laughter rings, joyful chime, Friends are gathered,

transcending time.

Sun dips low, a fiery sigh, As stars ignite the deepening sky.

Cloudia

People say nothing is impossible,

but I do nothing every day.

Inexhaustible A Moment At A Time

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Dreams are like stars.
You may never
touch them,
but if you follow them
they will lead you
to your destiny.
Liam James

Dogs live in the moment

and don't dwell on the past,

which is why they are

always so happy.
   Brigitte Bardot

Perhaps our planet is for

learning to appreciate the

extraordinary wonder of life that

surrounds even our suffering,

and to say Yes, if through the

thickest of tears.

  Zora Neale Hurston

The sun, a molten cymbal 

Beats rhythm on the clouds, 

twilight drummer heartbeat

welcomes in the evening crowds. 

An inexhaustible good nature is

one of the most

precious gifts of heaven,

spreading itself like oil

over the troubled sea of thought,

keeping the mind smooth and

equable in the roughest weather.

Washington Irving

Something Better

A L O H A From Honolulu!

In realms unseen,

on emerald leaves, Where sunlight strains

through dappled weaves,

Upon a petal, clean and bright, Tiny dancers rest from flight.

Until they leave with wings unfurled,

Intrepid folk of nature's world. Some giants scoff,

"A speck, no more!" But scoffing hearts

are often sore.

So spread your wings,

wee insect friend, And dance among

the blooms, again! Small or large,

beneath the sky, We all share life,

and yearn to fly.

Hae Hawaii (Hawaiian Flag) and a Party Lei in Window Light

Remember, the best way

to resist darkness is to

shine your own light.

Be the kindness that

defies negativity.

     Mattie Stepanek

Judge no one,

it's a waste of time.

Just improve yourself.

Kindness is not weakness.
It's a superpower to break
the chains of anger and
build something better.
Rachel Joy Scott

Fresh Every Hour

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The scariest demons
of darkest night,
fade in the glory
of morning's 
good light. 

A silhouette that caught my eye,
Dancer frozen in mid-flight,
Splash of color, held so high,
Sidelong glimpse in luscious light.

Keeping Calm, taking a beat, is a radically important act!

Lasting Happiness like wonderful, warm donuts, must be made fresh every hour.

Keep Baking!

When we are together,

I can see Heaven

from here!

Silly Sun

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 The silly sun surrenders

dips its brush in hues of rose,

Painting Honolulu skies

in cotton candy glows.

Stars begin to twinkle

here and there in

the darkening dome, Tiny starfish scattered

across a heavenly home.

The music of hope is everywhere.

All you have to do is listen for it.

Christine M Knight 

We project to others

the image of ourselves that

we believe and carry

in our own minds.

With humble pride

think well of yourself

and others will

do the same.

We're here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark. Whoopi Goldberg
