Ordinary Wholeness

A L O H A From
H O N O L U L U

Music in the soul

can be heard

by the universe.

Lao Tzu

Wholeness is ordinary,

it's simple.

It doesn't come

with fireworks.

It's the undisturbed calmness

inherent to the space

that is you.

Laurie Buchanan

Anyone can love a rose,

but it takes a lot

to love a leaf.

It's ordinary to love

the beautiful, but it's

beautiful to love

the ordinary.

MJ Korvan

Being happy doesn't mean

that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections. Gerard Way

What You Most Like About Yourself

A L O H A From
H O N O L U L U

What qualities you admire

most in other people.

(This is what you

most like about yourself.)

Brianna Wiest

Symphony of sunlight

warm and gold,

as day matures

Grace enfolds. -

-In golden hush

the tempo slows,

Legends of light

and shadow close. -

- On verdant leaves

a glittering dance,

casts dew alight in

jewel speckled trance. -

- And at sunset

a performance of fire,

Clouds of glory

ablaze with desire.

Cloudia Charters

Tension is who you

think you should be.

Relaxation is who you are.

Message Friends

A L O H A From
H O N O L U L U

In quiet moments

Thoughts take flight,

With you, my friend,

They find their light.

In solitude

I've often roamed,

Yet in our words

I feel at home.

Like angels consoling

through the night,

We share all dreams,

All favors requite.

Our conversations

Dance with wings,

So natural with you:

These significant things!

. . .A bond's been woven,

Deep and true,

Of everything I share

With you.

Of all the things

You share with me

Instantly our hearts agree.

Thank you for being

My guiding star,

My message friend,

No distance too far.

Together we speak

In a sacred space,

With every word

We find our grace.

So here’s my heart

In verses penned—

Grateful always

For you, my friend.

Cloudia Charters,

"Message Friend "

for JB

Be an encourager.

The world has plenty

of critics already.

Dave Willis

The greatest weapon

against stress is our

ability to choose one

thought over another.

William James

The key to finding

happiness in this life is

realizing that the only way

to overcome is to transcend;

to find happiness in the

simple pleasures, to master

the art of just being.

Brianna Wiest

More Than Once To Win It

A L O H A From

H O N O L U L U

So ready your mettle

and steady your heart.

It’s time for my story’s

mysterious start...

Robert Paul Weston

The things we know best

are the things we

haven't been taught.

Marqis de Vauvenargues

The smaller the creature,

the bolder its spirit.

Suzy Kassem

You may have to fight a

battle more than once to win it.

Margaret Thatcher

Every act of forgiveness mends something broken in this fractured world. It is a step, however small, in the long, hard journey to redemption. Rabbi Jonathan Sacks
