The Smaller They Are ✨

A  L  O  H  A !

I have met

a few big names.

Be cool is my policy.

They know who they are.

I treat everyone the same:

with Aloha. Of course,

when it is a person who's

work you admire, you can

say that. I appreciate your work.

I encourage everyone.

Chris Rock, having his morning coffee

after a show in Honolulu, gave me

an eye that said: "Please. No

coffee yet...." so I passed him by.

Morgan Freeman's granddaughter

took a nice picture of him and me.

I told him how much I enjoyed 

his work, and that even in a movie

that is purely entertainment,

and not a FILM, he always 

brings a nice gravity to the screen.

"Wow thanks!" He liked that.

Well enough name-dropping.

The point is: great people,

are often humble, real people.

They are not offended to be

treated like a friend.

But I have noticed a certain person

who has achieved a certain notice

who is offended when you are not

fawning over them. Hugely

successful folks who's work

far exceeds mine, have treated

me as a peer in the work.

But the smaller they are,

the smaller they are.

Consider the present,

and most recent

US Presidents for an

instructive example

of both types we are

talking about.

So be BIG!

Be Warm!

Be Humble!

In short: Share the

A L O H A.

You'll be glad you did.

It's what the world,

and each of us,

needs now.

We are all peers

in the work of Life!

 "If only you could sense 

how important you are to the 

lives of those you meet; 

 - how important you can be 

to people you may never 

even dream of. -

- There is something 

of yourself 

that you leave at 

every meeting with

 another person."

“To me, photography is 

an art of observation. 

It’s about finding something 

interesting in an 

ordinary place. . .

I’ve found it has little to do 

with the things you see 

and everything to do with 

the way you see them.”
