“Ah…romance to me
is spontaneity.
It’s not diamond earrings;
it’s a bunch of daffodils
that’s freshly picked
from the field.”
~ Kate Winslet

in life to learn is
which bridge to cross

Flowers appear on the Earth;
the season of singing has come…”

“No matter what you’re going through,
there’s a light at the end
of the tunnel and it may seem
hard to get it but you can do it
and just keep working towards it
and you’ll find the positive
side of things.”
~Demi Lovato
“Trust in dreams,
for in them is hidden
the gate to eternity.”
~Khalil Gibran
“You have a spiritual connection to the island”, I was told by a native. “I can feel it. I see it in your eyes. It’s what keeps you coming back.” Those words pierced my soul. Perhaps it was the grand untouchable beauty in every direction that captivated me. Or the fact that Nature reappeared with an enduring vengeance for life from what was once nothing more than molten lava. The tropical vegetation is practically surreal in its perfection. Maybe it’s the harmony between the tangible benefits of sunshine and the intangible belief in allegorical legends. For all one knows, it may be the sudden and unexpected appearance of a vibrant rainbow. Or the freedom of spirit, the passion for life, the gratitude for blessings, and the nourishment of body. Kauai is tranquility; it is passion; it is exotic; it is hopeful. But most of all, Kauai is like taking a walk with Our Heavenly Father in the Garden of Eden.
“Time is the coin of your life.
It is the only coin you have,
and only you can determine
how it will be spent.
Be careful lest you let
other people spend it for you.”
~ Carl Sandburg
“Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o’ lang syne!”
~ Robert Burns
