a state of mind
more than a salutation
for giving & spreading
living with natural sincerity
a gift that flows through us
coordinating mind & heart
seeing the goodness in others
sharing a smile for no reason
acknowledging the beauty of life
saying hello to a stranger
putting the needs of others before your own
gratitude for the abundance around us
giving without thought of return

the aloha spirit was the thing that struck me most
about hawaii & its people ~ it was powerful & palpable.
here's to practicing aloha, where ever we are
