Last night Kaliloa sounded the conch and blessed the land, with more than a hundred people standing in the circle. We called in the oversoul, and the ancestors and gave thanks.

As many of you know, the 6.9 quake was epicentered on the land, and many of our neighbors and friends lost ther homes this summer. We celebrate the resilience of this community and these people!  Philip (who planned for 50!), fed everyone, with Lau-Laus and Ulus and Kale and Turmeric Rice and Sweet Potato Pie and Mamaki Tea. David and Noah and Isaac and Sunni and Kalama and Craig and David shared their art and stories. Kids of all ages were playing in the dirt piles, the sunset made it the perfect peach o’clock, enchanted.

Our hearts are bursting.
