“I the human wander lone in wonder amid this grand universe of unbounded space and time
You the great keeper of universe
Exist in its infinite wonders
Lone in silence
In the grand home of your own being!
Through the limitless lands and times
Through the uncountable stars
You are gazing at me.
I look up towards thee!
All noise ceased in silence
All worlds absorbed in deep peace
Alone
You are!
Alone
I am
within, fearless!” ~ Poetry and Songs by Rabindranath Tagore’

Sharon Mau replied
Mahalo! Hey! I was just on your page!! How are you today? What time is it in your corner of the world?
Béla Török
It is 7 am and befor to start a new day I have checked my page. Now I’m going to wake up David and I’ll drive him to the school and after that I’ll go to my workplace. It’s cold outside and everything is grey. Huggs, Béla
Sharon Mau replied
Oh wow! It is so wonderful to know you are preparing for your day as I am preparing for sleep. LOL Here the time is 2023 and there are high gusts of wind. Today the weather on Maui was warm, bright and sunny and we are expecting a tropical storm which is sweeping over the ocean toward us at this moment. I have removed all the pretty hanging things from the lanai and secured everything as the gusts are expected to reach up to 60 mph winds. It is predicted to affect mostly the windward side of the island and we are upcountry at about 2000 feet elevation, yet we experience amazing winds sweeping down from Haleakala so I am praying the worst of the storm will pass us by. I understand Kaua’i and O’ahu have been hit hard. I wish you a beautiful day my dear friend!!
