Travel reminds me how much i love our home.

It’s called a honeymoon effect for a reason.

Understand the insight, and transfer it to everything about life.

Aloha, eh

3-d image of Hawaiian islands
The surface is a facade to reality.

The surface is reality’s facade.

dad

Aloha.

Nova Scotia isn’t an island.

But it almost is.

Kinda cool in a weird, 4:00 AM sort of way.

The Armani suit is not the body.

The brand new sports car is not the heart.

And so on.

Mahalo.

Trust and honor

The paradox of death and life.

Vibrancy beats the alternative. Common sense, not common practice.

dad

Behave admirably.

Why?

It builds trust because you honor your commitments.

Others can tell.

Why does that matter?

It doesn’t, except with the people you have relationships with.
