Remember when we were young, dreaming of all the things we would do. We talked outside of my parents' house really late until the hidden sun's faint glow turned the skies dark blue. Now, years later, we can look back and smile for doing all the things we wanted to do. Ahead of us, bigger dreams, bigger goals. Let's keep pushing forward, through our ebbs and flow. For as long as we exist, we'll continue to grow. - poem, +positive masters, Jon Riki Karamatsu, 2/14/2020 - While talking with my good friend Brandon Mitsuda, I took a picture of this night rainbow, created by the misty white glow from the big moon in Waikele, Hawaii on Monday February 10, 2020....

You've seen enough death to know that your time could be up at anytime. So work hard on how you want to be remembered as, now! Accepting your vulnerability that you could die at any time is not something you may want to think about. However, there's a way you can make it positive. You could look at your future demise as the celebration of your life: (1) The people you've touched with your love and kind gestures; (2) The positive impact you've made on others through your work on a service or product; and (3) Beneficial content you've created for your loved ones and the greater community.

I love this game! If you love what you do, it's fun, like a game. If you don't, it's life, the dreary tasks you do to get by. Finding your purpose that makes your heart sing is what you desire.
