I’ve visited Hawaii at least once (excluding last year) a year for the past 10 years. I don’t know what it is, but Hawaii holds a special place in my heart. The people there are kind, pleasant, patient and modest. They express everything they do with pleasantness and modesty. My friends and family persistently ask me, why not visit somewhere new. I’ve been other places but there’s nothing like the joy I feel when I’m in Hawaii. 

I can’t stop  thinking of the individuals in Japan.  Everyone speaks of the Japanese culture as sticking together in hard times so I know God will see them through. It seems like they don’t worry about material items to make them feel whole, instead they focus on family and health. They are still smiling through it all.

My goal is to live life a little more care-free. I tend to set new goals for myself sporadically.:)

Tip of the day: Unity is to be expressed with harmony…

“Aloha Spirit” is the coordination of mind and heart…it’s the individual-it brings you down to yourself. You must think and emote good feelings to others.”

Crab cake benedict is one of my favorite meals for breakfast. I originally tasted this spectacular dish when I stayed at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.  They are still voted #1 for this dish in my book, but this one was next best.

Has anyone ever seen a grey ladybug before? This was my first time. When we set this little bugger free he camped outside until the morning and proceeded right back in. 🙂

Wearing: BAR III dress (from Macy’s),  Stewart Weitzman sandals.

  4. The dress is so cute. Its has a youthful style and yet age appropriate. I sooo love Hawaii too! I got married out there and tend to visit from time to time also. I always stay at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in a suite with an ocean view. You can walk right outside to the beach. There are so many places to shop. You really don't have to leave the Village in order to enjoy yourself. It truly is a must to enjoy ones life. One love Sis!

  5. Hawaii is a wonderful place to visit. Mentally…while there, it's like you're in a whole different zone. Loves Hawaii!

    Ummm bugs and I don't mesh. I have never seen a grey ladybug but, I probably just didn't take the time out to even look. lol

  6. Lovely photos and as always you are dressed the best! So caring of you to keep Japan present in your prayers and on your blog. PS. my first and only trip to Hawaii was to that exact same resort, all expenses paid by my former employer.

  7. You look amazingly beautiful. I love the print on your dress and the lovely detail on the back.

    You make Hawaii sound amazing. I may need to put that on my "to do" list after every other place I am dying to visit.

    Love,
    Grace
