Akā maikaʻi ke kamaʻilioʻana me nā wāhine akamai ka hiki iā lākou ke hoʻoholo i nā hopena e pili ana i nā pilikia o ke ola a me nā mea i loaʻaʻole i ka manawa. E like me kā lākou e'ōlelo nei, he mea maʻalahi ke aʻo mai nā hewa o nā poʻe'ē aʻe, a me ka ho'āʻoʻana e hahai i kēia akamai kanaka, ho'āʻo wau e aʻo i kekahi mea mai nā hua'ōlelo a kuʻu hoaaloha, e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kāna moralika e like me ka hua'ōpena. A ke hauʻoli nei au i hiki iaʻu ke kaʻana like aku i kēia mau haʻawina meʻoe, e nā malihini aloha o kā mākou punahele aloha a hoʻolaha.
Nohoʻoiai me kahi hoaaloha i kahi cafe, ua kūkākūkā mākou i ka hala ma mua, nā manawa i mihi aiʻo ia a no ka mea i hoʻoikaika i kona ola ma keʻano. Ua kākoʻo wau i ka wahine aloha i hoʻopōʻinoʻia a me ka lei i ka mea maikaʻi loa iaʻu,ʻoiaiʻo ia e kaumaha nei i ke aloha i hala. ʻAʻole i hala mua ke aloha, akā paʻa. ʻO kāu mea e pono ai e hana iʻole e haʻalele i kou aloha e aʻo maiʻoe ma kēiaʻatikala ma ke kumuhana " ʻO kēia aloha i hala aku nei e lilo i mea kaumaha i ka wā e hiki mai ana ."
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ināʻaʻoleʻoe e hana i ka manawa, hiki i nā mea a pau ke lilo i mea kaumaha i ka wā e hiki mai ana. ʻO ke aloha nui. ʻAʻohe mea iʻoi aku kaʻino ma mua o kaʻeha a me ke kaumaha o ka manaʻo. ʻO wai ka mea nāna eʻike i ka olaʻana o kuʻu hoaaloha ināʻo ia i hana i ka manawa. Eia hou, pili i nā pilikia naʻau. ʻAʻohe mea e hāpai iā mākou, nā wāhine, e like me nā aloha alohaʻole i loaʻa,ʻaʻole i hiki mai no ka hilahila a me ka hilahila. E like me ke akamai kaulana i ke aloha, e like me ke kaua, ua maikaʻi nā mea a pau. Aʻo ke aloha i ka manaʻo nui, heʻano ia o ke kaua, he kaua o nā kāne no ke kaulike, no nā manaʻo, a no ke aloha.
I kona wā'ōpiopio, hālāwaiʻo ia me kahi kanaka'ōpio i hanaʻole i ka waiwai nui, no ka mea, ua alohaʻo ia i kekahi kanaka'ē aʻe. ʻO iaʻo kona haku,ʻo ia kona mea nāna i hoʻokau. ʻAe,ʻaʻole e hoʻolohe mai ka luna i kekahi kanaka hana maikaʻi a keu. Ua hōʻikeʻo ia i nā hiʻohiʻona a me ka mālamaʻana, akā, mai konaʻaoʻao mai, heʻano maʻamau maʻamau. Malia paha, heʻokoʻa nā mea a pau, keʻoleʻo ia i aloha mau i kāna kāne. I kēlā manawa i ka wā e hiki mai ana, aʻo kēia hoʻi he kāne kāne mua. Uaʻoluʻoluʻo ia i ka manaʻo o ua kanaka nei, akā,ʻaʻoleʻo ia i hoʻomau, e'ōlelo anaʻo ia, a he hilahila loa ia i pale ai i ka naʻau mai ka lanakilaʻana i kahi kaikamahine nani. He mea hopohopoʻo ia, a me kona hūnāʻana ma hope o ke anuanu o kona puʻuwai i kahi kanaka'ōpio, kanaka maikaʻi a waiwai.
He nui ka poʻe i ho'āʻo e hoʻohaʻahaʻa iā lākou no nā makahiki he nui, akāʻaʻohe mea i loaʻa. Eia hou, ke hoʻomanaʻo nei au i kaʻike kanaka no ka "palenaʻole." A ma hope o nā makahiki he nui, ua hui lāua. He wahine kāna a he keiki, he keiki aʻo kāna male male, akā, loaʻa iā lākou kekahi mea likeʻole ma waena o lākou -ʻo ia nā manaʻo iʻikeʻoleʻia, nā hua'ōlelo i hikiʻole ke paneʻia. Pehea ka lōʻihi eʻike ai i ke aloha? ʻO nā makahiki he nui wale, aʻaʻoleʻo ia aloha hoʻokahi i make no nā makahiki, akā, e mau ana nō ia e noho i loko o ka puʻuwai o kēlā mea kēia mea o kākou, e kali ana i kahi'a'ā e ho'āla hou. I kēia manawa, ua kaumaha nuiʻo ia no ka piliʻana i nā pōkole, aʻoiai,ʻaʻohe mea e hiki ai ke loaʻa iaʻu,ʻaʻole wale wale nō koʻu puʻuwai. ʻOiai,ʻaʻole i lawa ka puʻuwai hoʻokahi o nā wāhine ma mua o nā makahiki, makemakeʻo ia i ka piha piha a me ka maluhia ma kahi kokoke i kāna mea aloha. Ua moeʻo ia i ka moeʻana. Ināʻaʻole no kahi keiki pupule, pehea wau e noho nei e kanikau nei i kuʻu hoaaloha. ʻO ke keiki'ōpiopio, ke alohaʻole, nā hopena hope, no ka mea,ʻaʻoleʻo ia i ke aloha i kāna wahine, a ola wale wale nō no ka pono o kāna kaikamahine.
ʻO ka noʻonoʻo heʻino iki, aʻo ka'ōpiopio, he mau hewa liʻiliʻi a nui paha, hanaʻia e nā poʻe kūpono e hōʻoiaʻiʻo i ko lākou naʻaupō me ka'ōpiopio, a he mau'ōpiopio a hiki i ka wā e lilo ai lākou i mea akamai a hoʻomaha i nā mea lapuwale. ʻOiai uaʻaeʻia keʻaeʻia eʻaeʻiaʻoe e hana i nā mea lapuwale i kou wā'ōpiopio, akā e noʻonoʻo i kahi e like ai me ka pehea e hiki ai i kēia mau mea pula ke hoʻololi i kou ola a me kēlāʻaoʻao.
He aha ka mea e ponoʻole ai iaʻu e nalo i koʻu aloha? He aha kaʻu e hana ai e pale aku i ke aloha i hala aku nei mai ka liloʻana i mea kaumaha i ka wā e hiki mai ana? Pehea e aʻo ai i ke aloha a pehea e hana ai? Nui nā nīnau, akāʻike wale wau i hoʻokahi wale nō mea,ʻaʻole ponoʻoe e noho hoʻomaha, aʻaʻole ponoʻoe e hūnā ma hope o kahi pale huna. ʻO kēlā me kēiaʻelua e hiki iā kāua ke hālāwai me kā mākou aloha a ma kēlā me kēia manawa hiki iā mākou keʻike. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ua kūkuluʻia nā mea a pau e pili ana i ke aloha, ua kūkuluʻia ko mākou ola a pau e pili ana i kahi mea aloha, a ināʻaʻole kahi mea aloha a puni mākou e kūkulu nei i ko mākou ola ?! No laila, pono kākou e hala i ko kākou aloha,ʻoiai,ʻoiai he nuiʻole nā kānaka i kēia mau lā,ʻaʻole lākou i wiwoʻole, heʻano hopohopo a me ka makaʻala, ināʻaʻole mākou e hana,ʻo wai ka mea e kūkulu i ko mākou lā e hiki mai ana ma mua.
Manaʻo nā kaikamāhine he nui nā hiʻohiʻona o ke kaikamahine e like me ka hoʻokumuʻana a makemake e noho hoʻomaha. Uaʻaeʻia i nā maka'āinana e pono i ke kanaka eʻimi i ke kaikamahine,ʻaʻole ma ka'āpana. A he aha ka mea e kū'ē ai? No ke aha e lanakilaʻole ai ke kanaka? ʻAʻole ponoʻoe e noʻonoʻo a hopohopo paha i ka nānā aku o ko mākou mau hiʻohiʻona e like me ke kāpiliʻana. Pono mākou e kamaʻilio kūpono a me ka wikiwiki, a hōʻike i nā mea a pau, no laila mākou e lawe ai i kā mākou mau hapalua koa, aʻaʻole loa lākou e kū. ʻAʻole lākou e loaʻa ka manawa e hiki ai i ko lākou kūlana, akā, e noho ana lākou ma ke kuahu i loko o kaʻekalesia ma kahiʻeleʻeleʻeleʻele. ʻOiai nā kānaka i kū i keʻano o ka manaʻo lanakila o ka naʻi aupuni. ʻO ke kanaka ke lanakila iā mākou i ka hoʻomakaʻana o ka pilina, aʻoi aku paha, pololei, lanakila, e hana i kahi pilina, a laila, i ka wā o ke ola pūʻana, loaʻa iā lākou kā lākou meaʻai eʻono, ke kiʻi maikaʻi, nā'ōlelo akamai a hoʻomaopopo i nā maka e like me kona lōʻihi a hiki i ka wā e hōʻeha ai mākou. Inā mākou e hana e like me ka mea lanakila mua, a laila, i ka wā o ke ola pū e lanakila ai lākou iā mākou?
Kūleʻa a hopohopo mākou, he nui nā makaʻu a me keʻano hilahila o nā kānaka. Ke hopohopo nei mākou i ka loheʻana i ka hua'ōlelo "no" a loaʻa ka hōʻoleʻana, a no kēia mea ua nui ka poʻe pōʻino a me ka poʻe lonoa i ka honua e moe i kēlā me kēia pō eʻike i ko lākou hapalua. ʻAʻole hiki iāʻoe ke noho i ka makaʻu, ponoʻoe e mākaukau no nā mea a pau i loaʻa iā mākou. Aʻo ka hopena e hāʻawi iā mākou i nā mea a pau e hauʻoli ai mākou, pono mākou e hopu a mālama iā ia, e hana i nā mea a pau e hauʻoli ai, no ka mea, aia i loko o ko mākou lima heʻano akamai'ē aʻe.
