These days I aim to discover the kernel

"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer." -- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

I like this quote a lot. I'm looking more and more these days for those who live their spirited lives without focusing just on the "spiritual" aspects. All of life can be spiritual -- even if we don't use those words.

Writers and musicians and chemists and lawyers and housekeepers and gardeners and mountain climbers and doctors and nurses and physicists and even religious practitioners -- all have the potential of being and living spiritual lives. These days I aim to discover the kernel of whatever it is that separates the spirited from the non-spirited; the hopeful from the hopeless; the ordinary from the extraordinary; the fabulous from the mundane.

What do you think that kernel can be?

Saturday, February 19

Sal and I walked along Sugar Beach this morning -- across from Maui Sunseeker -- totally enjoying the morning as it slowly woke up from its slumber. Picked up a bunch of coral to bring back to DC .

Afterwards, Sal and I went to Kihei Cafe for breakfast. Interesting place and the food was to yum for.

Now we're heading over to the public, clothing optional sun deck and hot tub here to rest a bit prior to going on the Gay Whale Watch. This is at 2:00 today on the Pacific Whale Foundation's "Ocean Spirit." It's a whale watching cruise to benefit Equality Hawaii -- and Maui Sunseeker is providing free tickets for all their house guests. Way to go guys -- you're awesome!

More later ... or tomorrow!
