- Ke ʻae nei i kahi maʻamau maʻamau

- Ke loaʻa nei nā manawa kūpono e ulu
- Puʻu manawa pū
Ke kuhi ʻia kāu kāne me ka maʻi maʻi a i ʻole lilo ʻia, loli ke ao. ʻAʻole wale ʻoe e pili pākahi ʻia e kēlā a me kēia hoʻomohala kaumaha, akā pono e hoʻopili ʻia kāu male i kahi mea hou. E pau paha kāu mau manaʻo e pili ana i kāu mua e hiki mai ana, e pani ana i kāu mau hoʻolālā me nā manaʻo o ka makaʻu a me ka hopohopo. ʻIke paha ʻoe ua komo ʻoe a me kāu hoa i kahi kūlana limbo, kahi ʻano o ka maopopo ʻole.
ʻO ka lilo ʻana i kahu mālama wahine e hoʻokau iā ʻoe i ka lāʻau i makemake ʻole kekahi o mākou e hui pū, akā ʻo ka mea ʻoiaʻiʻo ka hapa nui o mākou i ka wā o ka male. ʻAʻole hoʻokae kēia koʻokoʻo kūleʻa. He ʻano like ʻole kona mau lālā, ka makahiki, ka lāhui, ka lāhui, ka nohona pili wahine, a me ka pae loaʻa kālā. Ke hele a koʻikoʻi a maʻi kīnā ʻole ka wahine a kā mākou wahine, hiki ke hoʻāʻo ʻia kahi male ʻana ma mua o ka ʻaʻa ʻole ʻia. Inā he maʻi kino a maʻi maʻi paha, ʻaʻohe mea kānalua e hiki i ka lilo o ke olakino o kā kāua hoa ke hoʻololi i kēlā me kēia ʻano o kā mākou ola. ʻO kekahi hana ʻeleʻele i kekahi manawa a koʻikoʻi hoʻi i ka mālama ʻana no kā mākou mea aloha hiki iā mākou ke haʻalele iā mākou e ʻimi nei i ke alakaʻi e kōkua iā mākou e neʻe i loko o kā mākou ʻeha i kahi o ka manaʻolana a me ka maluhia.
Ke ʻae nei i kahi maʻamau maʻamau
ʻO ka maʻi nui ka malihini i makemake ʻole ʻia i ka wā e hiki ai i kā mākou puka. Akā, ma ke ʻano he ʻae ʻole ʻia e like me ka manaʻo o ka mea komohewa, pono mākou e aʻo e kāohi i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo e noho paha ia no kekahi manawa, inā ʻaʻole no ke koena o ko kā mākou wahine. Lilo kēia maoli i mea maʻamau, kahi mea a mākou e pono ai e hoʻohui i loko o ko mākou ola. ʻOiai mākou e manaʻo nei i ko mākou ola, a i ʻole, e hoʻomaha, pono mākou e noʻonoʻo pehea e hana ai ʻoiai mākou ma kahi kānalua. Lōʻihi paha kēia wā o ka manawa, no laila ʻaʻole kūpono ia no mākou e noʻonoʻo hiki iā mākou ke kali i ka maʻi o kā mākou wahine a hoʻi i ke ʻano o nā mea ma mua. Hele mākou i mua ma ke ʻano he kāne ʻoiai mākou i limbo, e hoʻohui ana i ka mea maʻamau i ke kumu o ko mākou ola.
Ke ola nei i kou ola kahiko pū kekahi
ʻOiai mākou e ʻae i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo hou o kā mākou pilina, he nui nā ʻano o ko mākou ola kahiko e hoʻomau nei e hana. Hoʻolauleʻa mākou i nā lā hānau, nā makahiki hoʻomanaʻo, nā lā nui, nā male a me nā pēpē hou. Hele mākou i nā hanana kaiaulu, kula, a me nā hana. Loaʻa i nā ʻohana ʻē aʻe ko lākou olakino ponoʻī a i ʻole nā pilikia pilikino a makemake mākou e kākoʻo iā lākou. He mea nui ʻaʻole mākou e ʻae i ka maʻi o kā mākou hoa kāne e kāʻili iā mākou i ka hauʻoli, kaumaha, hana, a me nā pilina e hoʻolilo iā mākou ʻo wai mākou. Inā mākou e haʻalele holoʻokoʻa i waho o ke ʻano o ka mea maʻamau a maʻa iā mākou, e lilo mākou iā mākou iho a ʻike ʻo ka ʻike wale nō i koe o mākou ka mea mālama a hoʻomanawanui. ʻO ka noho ʻana no ko mākou ola ke kōkua iā mākou e mālama i ko mākou ʻike iā mākou iho a mālama iā mākou e pili i nā poʻe a me nā hanana i koʻikoʻi iā mākou.
E ʻae iā ʻoe iho e kaumaha
Manaʻo pinepine mākou i ke kaumaha me he mea lā a mākou e hana ai ke make kekahi. Akā hiki i ka maʻi ke lawe mai i nā nalo he nui, a he olakino ia e hoʻomaopopo a ʻike iā lākou. ʻAʻole kēia kahi mea āu e makemake ai e hana ākea me kāu wahine, akā lawe mai ka maʻi nui a me ke kīnā ʻole i ke kanikau kūpono a ʻaʻole ia he mea kōkua e hōʻole loa a haʻalele paha i kēlā mau manaʻo paʻakikī. Hiki ke hana pono ke kapa kikoʻī i kāu nalo. ʻO kahi laʻana, inā ʻōlelo aku kāu hoa iā ʻoe ke hoʻolālā nei ʻo ia i kahi holokai me kāna kāne i kēia makahiki e hiki mai ana, kaumaha paha ʻoe no ka hiki ʻole iā ʻoe ke hoʻolālā i kahi hoʻomaha ma ka wā e hiki mai ana. Inā hiki ʻole i kāu kāne e hele i ka hana a hana i nā hana a puni ka hale, kaumaha paha ʻoe i ka nalo o kāna hiki. E kaumaha paha ʻoe i ka nalo ʻana o kāu mau mea i manaʻo ʻia no ka wā e hiki mai ana, kou nalowale o ka manaʻo maikaʻi, kou ʻano palekana. ʻAʻole like kēia hana me ka hopohopo no ka mea ke ʻae nei ʻoe iā ʻoe iho e nānā a hōʻoia i nā pohō maoli e hana ʻia i kou ola.
Ke loaʻa nei nā manawa kūpono e ulu
Ke hana nei ʻoe me ka maʻi o kāu wahine, hiki i kekahi manawa ke manaʻo he mea hoʻokō e kū wale i waho o kahi moe i ke kakahiaka a kū i nā hana kūpono o ka lā. Akā aia kekahi mau ala e ulu ai ʻoe? Nā mea hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo? Maliʻa paha ʻike ʻoe i ka mahalo hou no kou hiki ke koa, kaʻi ʻole, empati, ikaika. A malia paha ʻike ʻoe iā ʻoe iho e hohola ana ma waho o ka mea āu i noʻonoʻo ai i loko o kāu pae. Ke lawelawe maikaʻi mākou i kahi kūlana paʻakikī a i ka wā e hakakā ai mākou i ka luhi a me ka makaʻu e piʻi i luna i kā mākou pae kiʻekiʻe loa o ka hana, ua loaʻa iā mākou ka manawa kūpono e hoʻolako i ko mākou ola me ka manaʻo hope loa a hana i kahi pilina me kā mākou wahine i ʻoi aku ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ma mua o ka pilikia olakino. ʻAʻole mau paha kēia pae o ka hoʻomaopopo a i ʻole pinepine, e like me ke kaumaha a me ka luhi paha o ka mālama ʻana. Akā ke hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā manawa transcendent, hiki ke lilo i mea hoʻonāukiuki a me ka hoʻouluulu.
Puʻu manawa pū
I ka hana pinepine i kēlā me kēia lā o ke ola o kēlā me kēia lā, lawe wale mākou i ka poʻe kokoke iā mākou. Hiki paha i kēia ke hana me kā mākou mau hoa kāne a ʻike mākou iā mākou iho i mua o ka poʻe ʻē aʻe a me nā hana, ke manaʻo nei hiki iā mākou ke noho mau me kā mākou hoa i kekahi manawa ʻē aʻe. Akā ke hiki mai ka maʻi, ʻoi aku ka waiwai o ka manawa. ʻIke paha mākou i kahi ʻano o ka wikiwiki e hana i ka hapa nui o ka hoʻolilo manawa ʻana i kā mākou pilina. Hāʻawi ka mālama iā ia iho i manawa e hoʻohui ai i kahi ala a mākou i ʻike ʻole ai ma mua. ʻOiai ʻike paha mākou i ke kākoʻo ʻana i kā mākou wahine i ka wā o kahi maʻi he mea hoʻonāukiuki a kaumaha hoʻi i ka manawa, hiki i kekahi ke ʻano he mea nui a koʻikoʻi ka mea a mākou e hana nei. I kekahi manawa, ʻo kahi pāʻina maikaʻi, kahi ʻōpala, a i ʻole kahi ʻauʻau mehana a pau a kā mākou wahine e pono ai e hōʻoluʻolu a hoʻoulu hou ʻia paha. A hiki ke noʻonoʻo he mea kupanaha ka lilo ʻana i mea e hōʻoluʻolu ai i kā mākou hoa i kona manawa o ka pilikia.
Nui nā ala ʻē aʻe e hānai ai iā ʻoe iho, i kāu wahine, a i kou male i ka manawa maʻi. I kēia ʻatikala, ua hiki iaʻu ke hoʻopā i kekahi mau mea. I kaʻu puke hou, Noho i Limbo: Ke hoʻokumu nei i ke kūkulu a me ka maluhia ke maʻi ʻole kahi mea āu e aloha ai, hui pū ʻia me Kauka Claire Zilber, kūkākūkā mākou i kēia mau kumuhana a me nā mea ʻē aʻe he nui i ka hohonu. No kēlā mau mea o ʻoukou e hana nei i kēia hana o ka mālama mālama no kāu hoa, makemake wau iā ʻoe i ka ikaika, kūpaʻa, a me ka maluhia.
