Aloha and welcome! After much deliberation, I am taking a big step from being an observer to a participant in the world of blogging. As I embark on this new endeavor, I am excited and a little nervous. So, here I go....
Today, I opened some Christmas cards sent from family and friends near and afar. Warm memories tickled my mind as I saw their dear, familiar faces and read about the highlights and changes in their lives. These greetings are warm embraces much like the welcoming embrace so often exchanged here in Hawaii with the spirit of Aloha. I cherish this simple custom of embracing with friends when we come and go; I have been humbled and softened by these tender embraces. I have felt peace, love, acceptance, and joy. How thankful I am for warm embraces in my life!
