Perseverance, Endurance and Change...

Persevere and Endure... 2 words that can drive a human crazy..." WHY cant things be just a little easier?" i hear it often... " Life is tough" hear that one often too...

 This time.....  I waited 2 years for the dolphins to come into shallow water... see those white things floating in the picture? they STING? Ive mentioned them before...to Persevere and Endure...

was it worth it? .......

 In this first picture u see 5 baby dolphins.. there are six but one is hidden.... this moment alone would make eternity worth the wait... Baby dolphins learning the shore line... Mommy dolphins secure enough with my presence to let them swim by...
 The wait.... the pain from the stinging.... disappeared..... all forgotten.... vanished ...
Perseverance and Endurance ... 2 verbs according to the dictionary...I realized ive inadvertently been using these 2 words for years....then it hit me..... not giving up can CHANGE your Life!!  Why accept EASY when u create CHANGE? Much Aloha....




I am an island gal!........

Definitely worth the wait, and even a little pain. Lucky you - and yet - you clearly make your own luck.

Returning Home

Image
It is time for me to return to the North Shore full time. It is at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, that I sit and wait for the tell tale ripples of water that signal the DOLPINS have arrived! The water calming down from the massive winter waves that just a few weeks ago pounded this side of the island, i return to her shores full time with glee! I will be subjected to the teasing of the regulars at the Bay who jokingly say, "Wheres the dolphins, Lani?" I always say in my mind, "There are far worse places I would need to wait!" LOLOL. This weekend the Bay gave a sneak performance of how magnificent her waters will be! Clear beautiful water, clean beautiful sand, the sun creating stain glass window like patterns on the sandy sea floor. And if that isn't enough the days of spring and summer on the North shore of Oahu, end with sunsets that are just magic!

They swam by me at mach speed swimming into the bay.. they turned around and passed me again checking out my orange swimsuit. I dont think they like it...LOL... It was good to see them.. they played tag with me for awhile, back and forth, back and forth. Finally exhausted i hauled myself out of the water and watched as they came close to shore , if i would of stayed in the water i would of got some major pics. I was just too tired,they are much much better swimmers than i am... lol...till next time.... I am an island gal.......
