Then rose Hawai'i from the space of time
Arose from inside, from the inner darkness,
Then appeared the island, the land
The row of the islands of Nu'umea...

No kind deed has ever lacked its reward.
Hawaiians are known
for their generosity, hospitality
and warm sharing.
This giving nature is grounded in the
principle of reciprocity.
When given, the Hawaiian will give back
in equal measure or more,
be it a gift or a smile.

Aloha mai no, aloha aku;
o ka huhu ka mea e ola `ole ai.
When love is given, love should be returned;
anger is the thing that gives no life.
Hawaiians understood
the transforming power of aloha.
Love begets love,
and enmity produces enmity.
Anger only serves to hurt the angry,
causing emotional upset,
which impairs mental,
physical, and spiritual well-being.

Much like the scent of a flower,
aloha emanates from the heart.
Those who are centered in aloha
cannot help but shower unending
love and beauty on the world.

This is a nice thread that was lost in the archives.
Absolutely beautiful thread. I have been to Hawaii and all is beautiful in those islands. Takes you to another world, one that we seem to have forgotten.
It is time for Hawaii again, and its lovely images.
