Mahalo, Rosa! I’m glad you liked the post. It occurs to me right now, in the wake of the tragic events in Tucson, that what our country needs badly is encapsulated in another Hawaiian word: ho’oponopono. I hope that our President will be able to draw on his Hawaiian roots to help guide us through a sad and very troubling time.

I wish that NYC had the Aloha Love that Hawaii has here. The people here in Hawaii truly embrace us with the Aloha spirit.

Lovely, Janet.
As Hawaii’s Crown Princess Ka’iulani said about the Hawaiians, “They are a happy people, you know – very kind and simple and trusting. They have shown that to the world, haven’t they?”
It’s time the world take another look.
