is a wealth of knowledge that teaches us how to live if we listen. My

to share. Mahalo Nui” - Dana Richardson

"...when he is about to plunge into the depths his entire flukes
with at least 30 ft. of his body are tossed erect in the air and
so remain vibrating a moment till they downward shoot. This "peaking" of
the whale's tail flukes is perhaps the greatest sight to be seen
in all animated nature." -Herman Melville (Moby Dick)

"Diviner than the dolphin is nothing yet created; for indeed
they were aforetime men and lived in cities along with mortals, but
by the devising of Dionysos they exchanged the land for the sea and
put on the form of fishes." -Oppian (Third Century Greek
poet) |
"There is a force within which gives you life - seek that.
In your body lies a priceless gem-seek that. If you want to find
the greatest treasure don't look outside, look inside, and seek that." -Rumi
