Just the two of us...
Love...
I was able to spend some precious time with my beautiful sister Nalani. When I arrived at the hospice in Hilo, she was barely recognizable. So gaunt, weakened, and listless as cancer ravages her body. Her eyes were slow to meet mine as I sat on a bed next to her. As recognition set in, she grasped my hands. Tears streamed down her face and I burst forth in tears and sobbed. I never felt so helpless in my Life. It was only in her beautiful green eyes that I could understand all we needed to say without words. She was still in there. Her beautiful Spirit encased in a deteriorating dying body. So much loneliness and suffering in her Life. All I could do was kiss her, hold her, whisper in her ear, and promise her I would shine the brightest Light I could emanate, with all of my Love, to help Light her way Home...

I found your blog while searching Google Images for a photo of the Kihapu at Bishop Museum. Yours is terrific. Would it be possible to have permission to use it in an article I am writing for Ke Ola Magazine here on the Big Island? (with photo credit of course) Please email me, catherinetarleton@gmail.com. Mahalo for your consideration!
