Aloha VOK,

I’d like to share my thoughts as we start the New Year:

Humans are meant to be products of creation from the time of conception, birth, and living, through passing and beyond. Each of us represents our dual avenues of genealogy family trees. From your father’s side and mother’s side that goes back in time far beyond our means of recording. So therefore, when one speaks to another, he/she also speaks to this family of sorts. All actions are not only in the present, but reflect their past and have bearings on the future. Thus it is advisable to treat each with dignity and respect, everyday.

Each of us has the potential of greatness through the creational spirit within us being nurtured through conscious awareness. You can see this through the innocence of infants who has not been corrupted because the subconscious still dominates. At this stage in life, infants are the most trust worthy humans around. Yet as most mature, the inevitable occurs which is the root for all problems.

Humans on a conscious level have the will to decide which avenue to pursue good or evil.

As we begin the New Year, please understand that each action will affect everyone around you, including yourself…Live Aloha!
