Aloha Friday

Have you ever heard of Aloha Friday?  In my blog, I will be holding true to "Aloha Fridays" by posting about the Hawaiian Islands.

What is Aloha?

It is used commonly as a salutation, but to Hawaiians and an island junkie like myself the simple answer would be a way of life.  Below is probably my favorite interpretation of Hawaii's "Aloha Spirit"

A: ala meaning watchful, alertness

L: lokahi meaning working with unity
O: oia'i'o meaning truthful honesty
H: ha'aha'a meaning humility
A: ahonui meaning patient perseverance
