I haven't been here in decades, I lived on a different Island in Oahu with Margie Brown and because of her got the invitation to sail to Long Beach California which took 32 days on a 30 ft sailboat battling tales of hurricane weather or a smooth flat glass ocean. It was a fantastic voyage and although actually very lucky to make it alive I wouldn't trade it for anything?
Hawaii to me is a paradox, it exists in a place out of time. The future is in the present and the present is filled with the past it's existence combined together to create and dizzying and creative masterpiece! And drifting between it grabbing wisps of smoke from the streets~ it is everywhere and nowhere. Although I've been here plenty of times over the years and lived on other islands, I'm pretty much done with "anything American "~ I'm on permanent vacation and so are my taste buds and senses! And even when things don't go as planned or perhaps sideways......
That's when we really know about the world around us! These islands are seductive beautiful and easy to fall in love with by the majestic cliffs that climb from the ocean into the sky and the countryside, untapped and unspoiled views in some of the most unsuspecting places.... UNBELIEVABLE ‼️ yeah though the country and the people having endured and survived so many parallels from war to typhoons to Pele....... you fall into a dream like trance, thinking it will never be over. It's hard for me to not look at it in cinematic terms of surfing and beach girls??
But time after time after time......shit gets real?
Escaping last week from Los Angeles California area where it took days on end to get my banking fixed where hackers had gotten in I also found that my son's passport didn't have that 6-month magic window? Well s***, just left Puerto Vallarta and I don't want to stay in California whatsoever and sure as hell not going back.....WTF TO DO‼️ So my good (Facebook) friend whom I'd never met although had invited me countless times offering to take my son and I in one of her many condos in Lihue, Kauai, Hawaii.... All the worries seem to dissipate for the moment and she was constantly treating us
like some VIP's for some reason? But, being in condos that means those other people around here and don't seem to get much excitement other than Pat Sajak ,Vanna White or Lawrence Welk reruns? Carol is nothing like that and we're looking for something a little bit more than Don Ho, but not Hawaii-5O?
She is a gourmet cook I've seen the article newspaper clippings and I've tasted the food so I can verify that, plus she plays tennis and runs around faster than I can keep my eye on her? Always doing countless things taking care of herself and other people. She is a whirlwind and a forced to be reckoned with no doubt. But, having me here rumors abound and small-minded people talk small minded things and that has put pressure on her which I never wanted? Although she knows it's untrue and most everyone knows it's untrue it's the ones that don't have a life that must invent to make trouble for other people that seem to be enjoying themselves for they themselves cannot enjoy their own pending doom? It's called The Crab mentality the crab at the bottom will always claw it's way to the top, thus somehow pushing the top to the bottom in the cycle always continues. In other words you must die so they can live by tearing other people down?
This is not all things Hawaiian or American or any of the nationality, it is those that are individuals within our society that gossip and create instigations that don't have too much interaction with other people so they can't actually have a clear view of anything outside their own world that is closing in rather small? Same thing happens in Bali, Thailand, Philippines, Mexico and all points around.
