Ever My Delight

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Morning is the dream renewed,

the heart refreshed, earth's

forgiveness painted in

the colors of the dawn.

   Kent Nerburn

For what human ill

does not dawn seem

to be an alleviation?

Thornton Wilder

Is not this a beautiful morning?

The sun shines into my soul.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

Not least, 't is ever my delight

To drink the early morning light;

To take the air upon my tongue

And taste it while the day is young...

Philip Henry Savage 1898

There is no snooze button on

a cat who wants breakfast.

Touch The Miracle

A L O H A From Honolulu!

African tulip tree (Spathodea campanulata)

an evergreen tree native to West Africa.

Our choice is stark.

Therefore, choose life!

Yes;

My blood pressure too

skyrockets when

I see the news,

but I'm also finding

a deep resignation

in a radically simple faith

that practices kindness and

refuses to be disempowered

by fear.

Art, Rest & retreat are important tools. Nurture your light.

A father used to buy goods from

poor people at a high price,

even though he didn't need them.

Sometimes he paid way

more for them. His children

were amazed. One day they asked

"why are you doing this dad?"

Their father replied:

"It's charity wrapped in dignity."

Saima Muneer

We are all equal in the fact

that we are all different.

We are all the same

in the fact that we will

never be the same.

We are united by the

reality that all colours and

all cultures are distinct &

individual. We are harmonious

in the reality that we are all

held to this earth by

the same gravity. C. JoyBell C.

Find a day for yourself

better yet, late at night.

Go to the forest or to the

field, or lock yourself in a room.

You will meet solitude there.

There you will be able to listen

attentively to the noise of the

wind first, to birds singing, to see

wonderful nature and to notice

yourself in it, and to come back

to harmonic connection with the

world and its Creator.

Rabbi Nachman of Breslov

Many people are alive

but don’t touch

the miracle of

being alive. Thích Nhất Hạnh

Crescendo Of Happenstance

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Love one another

like one of you just

got out of prison

after 20 years.

The difference between

ethics and religion is like the

difference between water and tea...

We can live without tea,

but not without water.

Likewise we are born

without religion, but not without

the fundamental need

for compassion.

     Dalai lama

The belief that there is

some future moment

more worth our presence

than the one we're in right now

is why we miss our lives.

  Cory Muscara

Become the person

your younger self would

want to look up to.

 Goitsemang Mvula

Your thoughts

are investments.

What are you

investing in?

In Our Power

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We are all together in the canoe. To move forward, we must work together.

Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most. Buddha

Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success. Henry Ford            

Kindness is in our power, 

even when fondness is not.

The cause of suffering is that

the unbounded Self is

overshadowed by the world.

through cities and countries wide.

And everywhere I went,
