Our family adores
Haleiwa
on Oahu's North Shore.
It's old Hawaii
so there's not a single hotel
and NO ONE rushes
or worries about much at all.
Snapped these images
at Pipeline in '08
of amateur
surfers down the beach
from the pros where everyone
else hovered.

Living in my swimsuit,
watching my family surf
(they're still learning),
hiking the beach,
visiting with sea turtles and seals
(they come right up to shore),
and eating shrimp and sticky rice
from a graffiti-inked truck
for lunch is my paradise.
And the moments shared
with my husband and sons
at our secret beach are like
sea glass gems in my crown.

Revisiting the colors of
sea, sand, and sky,
the scent of plumeria infused air,
the warm sand,
and the roar of the waves
is a reminder even now
to
slow
down.
To let it go.
To hang loose.
No matter where we
are planted.
Peace to you right where you are.
