Glorybower Starburst

A L O H A From Honolulu!

 In everyone's life, at some time,
our inner fire goes out.
It is then burst into flame
by an encounter
with another human being... 

...We should all be thankful
for those people who rekindle
the inner spirit.
 Albert Schweitzer

* About this plant (and above)

Every day that is born into the world

 comes like a burst of music, and rings

 the whole day through, and you make of it

 a dance, a dirge, or a life march, 

as you will.

  Thomas Carlyle 

Don't underestimate the value

of Doing Nothing,

 of just going along, listening

to all the things you can't

hear, and not bothering.

    Winnie the Pooh

If you come at four 

in the afternoon, 

I'll begin to be 

happy by three. 

      Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Aspects

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Saturday 3 Dec. 2022

Repetition doesn’t really exist. As far as your mind is concerned, nothing happens the same twice, even if in every technical sense, the thing is identical. Your perception is constantly shifting. It doesn’t stay in one place. Brian Eno

The light of eternity gilds everything like morning.

I went to a restaurant that

serves 'breakfast at any time'.

So I ordered French Toast

during the Renaissance.

You can't get mad at weather because weather's not about you. Apply that lesson to most other aspects of life. Douglas Coupland

 Kindness may be the best
communication tool of all.

Our first Hawaii home was an actual

coffee shack in Captain Cook, Link

above Kealakekua Bay on the west side of

Hawaii Island [the Big Island]. 

We would turn off

the belt highway, and climb

Rabbit Hill through the coffee trees

with four wheel drive.

Above the coffee farm, our

shack was built into the hillside on

poles. We hiked it's jungle path ever day.

We visited erupting Mauna Kea

[Neighbor Maunaloa is erupting

in the news today!]

I describe all this in my Hawaii Novella:

"Aloha Where You Like Go?"

You cannot be

who you are not. Simply rest, sit

still and unknot. You may even try

to emulate and inspire, But it's the inner self

that you'll transpire. Ana Claudia Antunes

A friend is one who overlooks 

your broken fence and 

admires the flowers 

in your garden.

Did NOT notice the temporary fence &  sign

in the background of the shot

until I placed THIS quote!  Typical

of the way this blog happens

on a daily basis: Inspiration!

Sometimes, it is not till I

read it later that I see

WHY a particular quote

works with an image.

No matter how many 

mistakes you have made, 

how slow the progress, 

you are still way ahead 

of everyone who 

isn’t trying. 

So keep going!

Wild Bird Wednesday

Your Sun's Day

 A L O H A  From Honolulu!

The flavor of your day

is pretty much about

what you fill

your frame with!

Tumbling rumbling crumbling 

evolving clouds,

and a beacon:

Aloha sun! See you again

Tomorrow.

My! I DO look good today!

It was a good one. Mahalo.

I see Oceania,

Polynesia beckons,

Dozo, Japan, 

I am Amaterasu

Coming to feed April's

Shinto Cherry Blossoms.

A L O H A!

Aloha to ALL

All Along.

I SHINE!

And leave some behind me.

ME.

I'm  THE  Sun.

Won't SOMEBODY adopt this 

timid cat?! 2012

What is YOUR Sun

shining on today?

The Sun above, and

the one in your heart.

Make it a good one.

We Love You,
