Hey, 007, would you prefer I delete this thread as the OP?
Please, if this thread is "racist", that was not the intent. The interpretation is left to each individual, however, the purpose of this thread was for a more positive light, (given the crap that is spewed here lately).
Amazing the responses on this "new wave" of PW, no matter the subject. SMH. My post does belong here, as much as any of yours (for the record, I find some of your posts enlightening, yet, sometimes cutting). At this point, I don't even read half the comments on this forum. Too oxygen sucking.
Let me know if you want me to delete it, but my na'au tells me not to. It was not "racist" in intent. At all. In fact, I'm going back to practicing a few things on the list.
This continued banter is really counterproductive. BTW, 007, there are many who live in Puna of Native/American Indian decent. To suggest this thread doesn't belong, is almost as bad as "go back where you came from".
What is "aloha"? Sometimes many of us lose focus in trying to maintain "aloha". Term used too loosely, especially in Puna.
Friendly reminder:

Going to pray to the "Great Spirit" of our culture for guidance and strength, patience and protection. Especially patience.
Have a good evening all. Life is short. (Thanks, 007, for the extra "self imposed time out". Carry on.)
JMO.
