MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!

MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!

MY INTRO

ALOHA AND WELCOME TO MY PERSONAL BLOG!!! I THOUGHT WHY NOT SHARE MY PERSONAL GAINS & STRUGGLES THAT LIFE PUTS OUT TO EACH AND ONE OF US. I FEEL THAT THROUGH THE GIFT OF "GIVING & SHARING", THERE IS NO WAY BETTER THAN START THIS BLOG WHICH IS ALL ABOUT ME, MY OHANA (FAMILY), HOALOHA (FRIENDS), AND EVEN ENEMIES WHICH ARE THE VERY ONES I NEED TO LOVE AND ACCEPT.


I'LL SAY THIS STRAIGHT UP, I DON'T HOLD BACK MY FEELINGS FOR ANYONE AND IT'LL COME OUT OF MY MOUTH ON HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOU AND OTHERS. I DON'T GO BEHIND ANYONE'S BACK AND START RUMOURS WITH HOPES THAT IT WILL CIRCLE AROUND AND FINALLY HIT ITS TARGET. WHY TAKE THE LONG ROUTE WHEN I CAN GO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. PERSONALLY, I THINK THAT IS THE "REAL" WAY OF LIVING LIFE, "BE REAL" AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHEN THE WORLD IS WATCHING.


ON THE OTHER NOTE, "I AM" THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE FROM THE WAY "I SEE IT". I AM NOT SPEAKING FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S FEEDBACK OR "CONCEITEDNESS". "THIS IS" WHAT I CHOOSE TO SEE MYSELF EVERYDAY WHEN I WAKE UP FROM MY BED AND THANK "AKUA" (GOD) FOR GIVING ME ONE MORE DAY TO LIVE, REGARDLESS OF REGRETS FROM THE "YESTERDAYS" TO THE FEARS OF "TOMMOROWS".


IN MY EYES, LIVING A "BEAUTIFUL LIFE" CAN ONLY BE ATTAINED BY "CHOICE" AND IT REQUIRES "INTEGRITY", "HONESTY", "UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE", "FORGIVENESS" AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, "LOVE".


AS MY BEAUTIFUL ANCESTORS HAVED ALWAYS BELIEVED:


'Ike aku, 'ike mai, kokua aku kokua mai; pela iho la ka nohana 'ohana.


WHICH MEANS, RECOGNIZE OTHERS, BE RECOGNIZED, HELP OTHERS, BE HELPED; SUCH IS A FAMILY RELATIONSHIP.


SO ONCE AGAIN, "WELCOME TO MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!"

RARE UKULELE MOMENTS WITH BRADA KA'IWA.


A FEW RARE PICTURES OF ME AND KA'IWA PLAYING THE UKULELES AND SINGING SOME SONGS AFTER MY DAUGHTER, KAHEALANI'S FAREWELL PARTY ENDED.  

A LONG TIME AGO WHEN I LOST MY UKULELE OUT OF FOOLISHNESS, I SWORE UPON MYSELF THAT I WILL NEVER PLAY AGAIN AS I FELT I WASN'T WORTHY TO PLAY AGAIN FOR BEING SO CARELESS WITH LOSING SUCH A PRECIOUS GIFT THAT MY MOM BOUGHT FOR MY GRADUATION GIFT AFTER HIGH SCHOOL.

STILL TO THIS DAY, IT HAUNTS ME EVERY TIME I PICK UP AN UKULELE.  THE FEAR IS SO HUGE AND THE REGRETS EVEN WORST.

16 YEARS LATER OUT OF NOWHERE, CAME A FRIEND & BRADA WHO'S NAME IS "KA'IWA FREITAS".  THIS GUY SOMEHOW GOT ME FEELING THE HOPES OF POSSIBLY COMING BACK AGAIN, TO PLAY THE UKULELE ONCE AGAIN WITH PRIDE AND RECLAIM WHAT THOUGHT I ONCE LOST.

DON'T LET GO OF ME EASILY, HAWAIIAN!!!

KAHEALANI GETS A HEARING TEST.






KAHEALANI GETS  HER HEARING TEST AS THIS IS THE LAST TEST SHE GETS DONE BEFORE MOVING TO HILO, HAWAI'I.  HER HEARING IS PERFECT ACCORDING TO THE AUDIOLOGIST.  SO NOW I KNOW THAT SHE HAS SELECTIVE HEARING.
