I did that in my native language because my sister was native also.  Her name is Aloha Kela and she has just crossed the line into Akua's hale...God's house.  She was easy to love because she was love and I could not help learning from her.  I first met her at an AA morning meeting here in Hilo and before she spoke she announced herself as, "Aloha, my name is Aloha and my only problem is me and my only solution is God".  I cannot tell you the number of recovering people on this side of the island who know that truth about themselves taught to them by Aloha Kela.  Just a few weekends ago I heard a veritable newcomer mention it and I had to smile at the reminder.  This is a chance to pass that awareness beyond Hawaii....My only problem is me....and my only solution is God.    I will never miss her and never have.   Thanks for letting me share her with you.   (((((hugs))))) smile

How perfectly lovely and how perfectly accurate and insightful for those of us in recovery!

(((Jerry))) - thank you so much for sharing - this so sums up all that is 'wrong' with me!
