I'm staring over the computer screen at the Pacific Ocean, on the North side of Oahu. Today is the last of 5 days in Hawaii. I've been at a retreat with the Mevlevi Order. I have only a few minutes, but plan on filling in the gaps. Here are some thoughts I'm starting with:

Sleeping a lot
Rain in Hawaii
Driving through the city on Oahu at night felt like any other city in the U.S.
Zhikr
Adabiahu
Sea turtles & snorkeling
