Comment on Aloha - A way of life - listen to Aunty Pilahi Paki speak by Mike Faber

I’m coming to realize that ALOHA is hard to acheive 100% of the time. Like most genuine wisdom in life, the lessons are in the pursuit rather than in the attainment. Mahalo to Aunty Pilahi, who continues to lead long after her physical being has left us.

Dearest Ramsay,

It’s so wonderful to see that you have perpetuated you life long belief as well your infinite knowledge of Hawai’i in this way. I often think about you and the difference you made in my life. I love this video and the message it contains, it is Hawai’i, it is you and yours. Aloha Nui Loa, Loretta
PS You look so much like your father

Aunty Malia Craver….Simple, Beautiful and Deep. Her legacy, teachings and sharings live on forever in all who she has come in contact with in her lifetime. We will never forget….

Will this program be aired on the mainland? I moved to San Diego, but I’d like to see it–friends on Oahu told me about it this morning.
Mahalo.

Comment on Pono Shim’s opening remarks to 2009 State Senate by Scott Stevens Poire

Scott Stevens Poire — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 19:01:25 +0000

Beautifully spoken. We all should heed the advice of our Kupuna, Aumakua and Akua. Pono Shim is a good example of how to live “pono” and in harmony with the land and the people of this land. Lets spread Aloha worldwide through our individual acts of Aloha to our family, friends and friends soon to be. Mahalo for this.

Ramsay’s explanation of the significance of the name Hawai’i was so beautiful, meaningful and heartfelt, it brought tears to my eyes…Gives true meaning to the phrase “Lucky we live Hawai’i”. I am so grateful to live and work in such a wonderful and magical part of the world.

Warmest Aloha,

Comment on Aunty Malia Craver’s Speech at the United Nations by Kalei Luyben

Aloha, aikane!

I agree with Ke’ala and Makana. As we three draw together in love, respect, honor, dignity, and humility, we create that peace and unity of which Aunty Malia spoke to the United Nations. It is for us to continue in the light, sharing the light with others, spreading it by our peaceful presence daily. If we can be like Aunty Malia, we can spread her mana. Mahalo, everybody, and welcome to this meditative conversation on the power of the Aloha Spirit, which is a tradition, not a slogan.

Ua pau, ua hala lakou, a koe no napua. We must carry our tradition higher and brighter than ever. Because Aunty Malia has been, we dare to become! Amen.

Aloha,
Kalei
