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!!!"

OUR TIME WITH OUR KAHEALANI.
















THIS IS OUR LAST EVENING WITH OUR KAHEALANI BEFORE SHIRLEY AND I HEAD BACK TO BETHEL, ALASKA.  FOR ME IT'S ALWAYS DIFFICULT TO LEAVE HOME AND KAHEALANI AT THE SAME TIME.  BUT DEEP IN MY HEART, I KNOW THAT I AM GIVING KAHEALANI THAT BEST I CAN GIVE BY SENDING HER DOWN TO KEAUKAHA FOR OPPORTUNITIES & DIVERSITIES.  WITHIN THE LAST YEAR, KAHEALANI HAS BEEN ACTIVELY INVOLVED WITH SWIMMING, HULA, SPORTS, "HAWAIIANA", AND MOST IMPORTANTLY...  OHANA WITH HER HAWAIIAN SIDE.

DAD, WENDY, LOKELANI, LEHUANANI, AND LEOLANI...  THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR MAKING AND SPENDING THE TIME FOR OUR KAHEALANI.  KAHEALANI HAS THIS CERTAIN GLOW IN HER HEART THAT I CANNOT DESCRIBE BUT CAN ONLY FEEL IT.  ALTHOUGH SHE HAS TO WORK ON HER TEMPER (WHICH IS MY FAULT...  LOL!!!), SHE IS A BLESSING FOR ME AND TO ALL OF YOU.

AGAIN...  THANK YOU AND I LOVE YOU!!!

KEAUKAHA'S AWILI BEACH AKA CHOCK'S BEACH.












HEADED OVER ONE OF MY FAVORITE SWIMMING SPOT WITH MY WIFE AND SOAKED UP THE SUN AND THE COOL WATERS OF "AWILI BEACH" AKA "CHOCK'S BEACH".  I USE TO COME HERE WHEN I WAS 5 YEARS OLD AND THIS IS WHERE I GO PICK "OPIHIS" (SHELL FISH) WITH MY COUSIN, KALEO.  WE GO SWIMMING FROM ONE OF END OF THE REEF TO THE OTHER SIDE WHICH WAS PRETTY TOUGH BECAUSE OF THE CURRENTS.  ALSO THIS IS A GOOD SPOT TO GO SURFING AND DIVING TOO!!!

THE ONLY THING THAT'S CHANGED IS THEY ARE NO "OPIHI'S" LEFT TO PICK AND EAT.  BUT EVERYTHING ELSE HASN'T CHANGE.  THE BEAUTY OF THIS PLACE IS FOREVER.

I RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR EVERYONE TO VISIT AND ENJOY!!!
