Whether you follow the solstice, Ke Ala Polohiwa A Kanaloa, or January 1 Gregorian calendar, the times they are a changing. Now is the time for us all to reset, start anew, be hopeful, and look forward. Looking forward however does not mean forgetting the past. For many of us we look to the past in order to move forward. Whatever way you like to look at it, we each have an opportunity to set aside this time to reflect on what has occurred and to look forward to the possibilities yet to come.
My screen saver says, "Spend more time on duplicating what works rather than dwelling on what is broken." Something to ponder on.

'O Kanaloa, 'o Lonokapao me Kaneikawaiola
O Kanaloa, o Lonokapao me Kaneikawaiola.
A fine morning to wake up to today. It rained most of the night on and off, the sky was cloudy just during sunrise, but as the daylight grew so did the appearance of the sun. It is now sunny with blue skies and puffy clouds. Indeed a time for all three gods to gather; Ke Ala Polohiwa A Kanaloa, Lonoikamakahiki, and Kaneikawaiola. E ola no, ea!

Ke Ao Polohiwa A Kanaloa
We are in that wonderful season of Lono where the environment is alive with wind, rain, gushing streams and crashing seas. It is great to see and experience that around us.
Ke Ao Polohiwa A Kanaloa is also upon us. Also known by others as the winter solstice and is the time when the sun reaches it furthest travel toward the south and will begin is journey back toward the north. The days will begin to get longer as the sun moves toward Ka Piko O Wakea. Whether you mark the date on Wednesday December 21 or Thursday December 22, go out and greet the sun in the morning. When the first edge of the sun reaches the horizon until the bottom edge clears the horizon, join us in welcoming Kanehoalani. E Kanehoalani e, e Kanehoalani e, aloha kaua.

Feed Me
Mac Application.
I just learned about a new Mac application called Feed Me that teaches Hawaiian in a very elementary and simple way. It looks like it was originally designed for children but it works for beginners to learn in a very fun way. You can always pretend it is for a child and use it for yourself. Seems to be only on the Mac platform right now but if anyone sees something similar for a Droid, let us know. FEED ME, a name that I can relate to.
