About Ez

I’ve been told I am a “Pollyanna;” forever and always looking at the bright side of life.

Even as a kid I recall being a thinker (what's life all about? what does it all mean? why am I here?).

My life has been a journey with the desire to become the very best person that I could possibly be. It's been a tall task. Like so many of us, I get caught up in life with what should "be" ("work") and how I might make it through. Will I make enough money? Will I find love? Will I get what I want to have? How will I find true happiness?

At one point I did come to the conclusion that "nothing" really matters.... all those little, inconsequential "things" which seem really BIG at the time. In my life I have had very little money, and I have had more than enough. My life has been shared with more than one love; and I discovered some people have a need for different types of love. Some need more empathy. Some just need to be heard. Some people are more generous with their love.

There were things that I knew, and thought I understood. Yet it wasn't until the worst time in my life that I finally and actually learned that I had to change my thoughts. Reaching deep inside, I discovered how easy it actually was to "flip my switch;" to immediately become aware, then put aside, my reaction. Then flip it to the complete opposite. It worked! I quit feeling hurt and desperate. I filled myself with love, and focused on laughter, and peace. And joy.

The funny thing is, ha!... once I became successful with flipping my switch, now, years later.. there are SO MANY other things that make me aware of what I don't wish to feel: Frustration. Anger at the way some people lack compassion. Fear that I won't have enough time to create what I ache to create. There is much to learn.

Becoming the very, very best that I can be, is my strongest desire. Included in this desire of course, is to generate love.

I would like to share what I've learned with anyone who cares to listen. I would like to have others share with me, what they've learned.. because I care to listen.

Life things:

Been self-employed since '95. I first owned a retail establishment, then set up and mastered fine art reproduction. For many years I've been blessed to work with artists who have become very dear to my heart. Some have passed on, yet what they've created continues to bring joy to others which I am grateful to produce.

For 30 plus years, I have lived in a beautiful community on top of a volcano in Hawai'i. Life is good... and I enjoy the company of my sweetheart; a truly good man, who is generous with his joy, goodness, peace and love.

For well over 60 years, I have had and am still loving the very best Mom that anyone could possibly have. 

I am truly blessed.

Love to all, Karen Anna Ez
