3/21/2012 Kitty Fix & More

There are so many pets who need to be adopted at the Kauai Humane Society (KHS).  I volunteer there weekly to get my 'kitty fix' since I'm missing my two cats, Smitty and Indy, but it's hard.....  I feel so badly for all the sweet animals and would love to rescue each of them.   My lease says "No Pets", so I can't even save one little guy or gal.

3/19/2012 Simplicity and Peace

Freedom is the thing I most appreciate about my life here.  I realized last night that for the first time in my adult life, I do not have a written 'to do' list.  Indeed, I don't even have a mental list of things that need to be accomplished.

I don't have grass to cut, a driveway to shovel, or a work schedule to obey.

3/14/2012 Blessings of Aloha


Alohalike many Hawaiian words, it has multiple meanings. While it is commonly used to say hello, good-bye and to express love, the beauty of the word comes through when it is broken down into the foundation root words.

Alo means to share in the present moment. 

Oha is joy. 

Ha is life energy 

Therefore Aloha translates to meaning “The joyful sharing of life energy in the present” or “joyfully sharing life.”  

Viewed another way, Aloha means living in harmony. 

Aloha wau la 'oe means I love you.
