My observations and comments on friendships from my journey in life…

Friend selection: Hmm well unlike family we can choose the circle of friends we want to associate with and for family we are born into a family and have no choice other than picking our spouse…

Selecting friends as we glide through life, it’s not how many friends we pickup along the way it’s the quality of the friendship. True friendship is an understanding and excepting your friend the way they are not having to impress your friend to hang out with them. A real friends is a person that cares less of your financial and career standings. A friend can be rich or poor it should not matter and what happens when you find a great friend your life is enriched because you can’t buy a true friend it’s priceless…

How do we meet our friends??? Don’t force it because it just happens whether you are introduced to them or meet them on your own. The friends you select, you just know it there is a chemistry between the both of you that you just click and are as the saying goes “Birds of a feather flock together”…

Everyone should have friends to share their life. Friends give us advice, comfort and support. A real friend is just a neat person that you can talk to about anything no borders…

I’ll stop here now. I could go on and on and on about good friends. As for me I’m blessed with good friends…

Harbor Pub in Waikiki on the island of Oahu my favorite watering hole and place to get frozen blended margaritas that are so good to drink with nachos or pizza. They have more on the menu the food is great…

You can find me there with my wife on Friday or Saturday nights most of the time. When we have to baby sit the granddaughters we also bring them with us they enjoy the atmosphere in the Pub it’s a cozy place to hang out in the booths…

If your visiting the Island of Oahu and want to get a drink and a bite and unwind in a relaxing environment with locals and tourist check out Harbor Pub then take a walk into Waikiki along the beach to view the beautiful scenery…

In one day I came across 4 incidents that make you say Hmmm!!!

1) Walking along the beach in Waikiki at night a group of police officers on ATV’s speeding across the sand kicking up dust while they speed past a tourist couple sitting on the sand enjoying a romantic moment gazing into the ocean. The moment was spoiled by the police offers acting like Hells Angels on their ATV’s. The couple left…

2) Two reserve Police cars speeding in a 25 miles zone flying over speed bumps at the Ala Wai Boat Harbor to clear out a parking lot that bans parking after 10:30pm. Not a life and death situation warranting excess speed. Tourist walking by shaking their heads…

3) Looking for a parking a Ward Centers a India tourist leap frogs full blast over a pole and almost lands on the hood of my car while I look for a parking. If I was not driving slow I would have hit him…

4) A sad incident by the Consolidate Theater at Ward Center a homeless lady arguing with the Theater manager because he asked her to leave the area. A lot of yelling going on. The manger left to call security. This is what is sad a stupid young woman bystander decided to get involved and make a bigger scene and act like she is so great mouthing off to a mentally disturbed homeless woman. That young woman instead of showing concern and passion for the woman just acting like she is retarded by getting involved in a shouting match with the woman and causing a bigger disturbance. End result the homeless lady taken away by security and that young woman walks away laughing with her friends…
