Hi there I realized I haven’t written on here in over a year. Most people probably think I have forgotten about this little place out here in cyberspace. I have had a lot happen since the last time I posted. Too much for one short post hehe Anyways thought I would upload a few photos. They are from Fantastic Caverns. Man I love that cave.
I was searching the internet for some of my favorite artists. And I really like this music that I found and I wanted to share it with everyone. Its good for relaxing and has a good message too. I also am including a story by the man.
Once upon a time, there was a wise kupuna (elder),
who went to the sea to contemplate.
One day, while walking along the shore,
the kupuna looked down the beach,
and saw a gracefully dancing
human figure.
The kupuna wondered out loud,
“Who would so joyfully greet this day with hula?”
and began to walk faster to catch up.
Getting closer,
the kupuna saw that the dancer was a keiki (child),
who was not dancing at all.
The keiki was reaching down to the sand to pick up something,
and was very gently throwing it into the sea.
The kupuna called out to the keiki,
“Aloha! What are you doing?”
The keiki paused, looked up and replied,
“Throwing starfish into the sea.”
Surprised, the kupuna sputtered,
“I…I guess I should have asked,
WHY are you throwing starfish into the sea?”
The keiki smiled brightly, pointed upward and,
with exquisite simplicity, replied,
“The sun is up, the tide is going out.
If I don’t throw them in, they will die.”
“But, don’t you realize, ” asked the kupuna,
“that there are miles and miles of beach
and starfish all along it?
You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The keiki listened politely.
Then bent down, picked up another starfish,
threw it gently into the sea, just beyond the breaking waves,
and exuberantly declared,
“It made a difference for that one.”
I received all this in a email and i wanted to spread the stupidity
Not only in America.. Its the same everywhere …
Only in America ……do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
Only in America …….do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
Only in America ….do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
Only in America ……do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Only in America ……do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
OK since I really needed to update but have not been able to think up something really good. I have decided to post an e-mail I received. I think its cute and hope you guys will like it
QUESTIONS THAT HAUNT ME!
Can you cry under water?
How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
Why do you have to ‘put your two cents in’… but it’s only a ‘penny for your thoughts’? Where’s that extra penny going to?
Once you’re in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?
Well since my mom finally got around to doing a post I guess I should too lol. She is doing a little better recovering quite quickly I would say. Some days she feels better then others but I know the pain still gets her and thats to be expected. Shes strong and sometimes I think she says she doesn’t need the help because she feels like she doesn’t want to be a bother. I love her so much and just dont want to see her in pain. Well I am getting sleepy I guess I better go lay down. Hope you all have a good day and God Bless.
