It is Christmas in the heart

that puts Christmas in the air.

Christmas is forever,

not for just one day.

For loving, sharing, giving,

are not to put away.

   Norman Wesley Brooks

May you never be

too grown up to

search the skies

on Christmas Eve.

I will honor Christmas

in my heart, and try to

keep it all the year.

Charles Dickens

Christmas is doing

a little something

extra for someone.

Charles M. Schulz

Every time we love,

every time we give,

it’s Christmas.

As You Are - As You Will

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Rainbow Beach, Rainbow Beach

where worries cease to be, Footprints in the shoreline,

washed by ebbing sea. Laughter floats on laughter,

carried on the breeze, As children chase the rainbows,

painted through the trees.

Play is our brain's favorite

way of learning

Diane Ackerman.

One way to get the

most out of life is

to look upon it

as an adventure.

William Feather

 Christmas magic is silent.

You don't hear it

- you feel it,

you know it,

you believe it. Kevin Alan Miller  

For one moment quit being sad.

Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you. Rumi

Appear as you are.

Be as you appear. Rumi

Delicious Refreshing

 Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather. John Ruskin

The first duty of love

is to listen.

Paul Tillich

Pygmy water lily,  Nymphaea tetragona

You are not a

drop in the ocean. 

You are the 

entire ocean 

in a drop.

Those who love deeply
never grow old;
they may die of old age,
but they die young.

Beneath these bruised

and brooding skies,

Cloud armadas shift and collide,

Let your heart take flight and soar,

On wings of dreams forevermore.

Healing Enjoyment

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

Healing requires from us

to stop struggling, but

to enjoy life more

and endure it less.

Darina Stoyanova

It's when we start

working together that

the real healing

takes place.

   David Hume

And once the storm is over, 

you won’t remember how 

you made it through, 

how you managed 

to survive. But 

one thing is certain. 

When you come out 

of the storm, you 

won’t be the same 

person who walked in. 

That’s what this storm’s all about.

                   Haruki Murakami

Truth is the

basis of all healing

Fallen African Tulip

Dancing free this crimson gem.

Fallen tulip pirouettes the wind.

A tapestry of hope in flight,

On wings of scarlet, bathed in light.

Even fallen, we can rise,

In sun-kissed laughter to the skies.

Just so to paint our day with fire,

This vibrant ember's bright desire.

And like the tulip, free and bold,

We'll paint our days in stories told.

Good Life Process

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Our own heart, our own mind,
is the temple. The
doctrine is compassion...

...Love for others and respect

for their rights and dignity,
no matter who or what they are:
ultimately these are all we need.
Dalai Lama

No spring nor summer beauty

hath such grace as

I have seen in one autumnal face.

John Donne

The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination. Carl Rogers

People seem not to see 

that their opinion of the world 

is also a confession of character.

      Ralph Waldo Emerson

Take a breath of

the new dawn and

make it a part of you.

you can listen to silence and learn from it. It has a quality and a dimension all its own. Chaim Potok

three winter months.
