Allen Cardinas, Jr. returns to complete ALOHA acrostic with the final "A" & explain why living these values is critical in today's challenging world. The complete framework provides a spiritual & relational compass for transforming relationships and communities through kindness, unity, respectful listening, humility & personal responsibility.
• Akahai (A): being kind by controlling yourself, not others
• Lōkahi (L): focusing on unity & building bridges, not walls
• 'Olu'olu (O): agreeing to disagree respectfully through skillful listening
• Ha'aha'a (H): practicing humility by seeking treasures in people, not trash
• Ahonui (A): taking extreme personal responsibility for your life & choices
• Cultural deconstruction happens when we lose the ALOHA "ti leaf" that holds society together
• Prioritize connection over correction & connection before perfection in relationships
• The goal of confrontation should be to manage yr own heart, not to control others
• Perfect love casts out fear, but fear can also cast out love if we're not mindful
• Living ALOHA means asking yourself: "If not I, then who? If not now, then when?"
Live Aloha, love Aloha, share Aloha & as we do that, the world will be a better place because of you. ALOHA!
