“Let us read and let us dance - two amusements
that will never do any harm to the world.”
Voltaire



“Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour.
Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.
THAT'S relativity.”
Albert Einstein


Spiral proclaiming itself!

Have you noticed it's infiltation of the culture?




"He drew a circle that shut me out --

Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.

But love and I had the wit to win:

We drew a circle that took him in."

Edwin Markham





The Hawaiians of old
never said "Aloha"
by itself.





"Aloha Kakou - Love inclusive to all of us.
How are we all doing?"





"Aloha Kakahiaka Kakou -
How are we all
this morning?"





"Aloha Kaua - Aloha to we two;
how are we doing?"




Aloha is always inclusive and comprehensive.

It is said that the Hawaiians of old
recognized a kindred spirit
in Jesus' words.




Thus adopting a Jewish brother
and their own religion
in "becoming"
Christian.





They forgave the gruff
and logical missionaries
who radiated condescension
and constraint.





The Hawaiians
in Christian patience
waited for them
to actually live
the religion they
professed.





Warmth & Inclusion to YOU, my friend.
How are WE today?
