Ua noʻonoʻo ka mea akeakamai kaulana, ka mea kākau moʻolelo ʻo George Bernard Shaw i nā holoholona āpau he mau hoaaloha nona a ʻōlelo ʻo ia no laila ʻaʻole hiki iā ia ke ʻai iā lākou. Ua huhū ʻo ia i ka ʻai ʻana o ka poʻe i ka ʻiʻo, a no laila "ʻoki i ka waiwai ʻuhane kiʻekiʻe loa iā lākou iho - ke aloha a me ke aloha i nā mea ola e like me lākou." I loko o kona ola kanaka makua, ua ʻike ʻia ka mea kākau ma ke ʻano he mea ʻai meaʻai: mai ka makahiki 25, ua hoʻōki ʻo ia i ka ʻai ʻana i nā huahana holoholona. ʻAʻole ʻo ia i ʻōhumu e pili ana i kona olakino, ua ola ʻo ia i 94 mau makahiki a ua ola ʻo ia i nā kauka nāna, hopohopo i kona kūlana, koi ikaika e hoʻokomo i ka ʻiʻo i kā lākou ʻai.
ʻO ke ola hanana o Bernard Shaw
He kūlanakauhale ʻo Dublin ma ʻIlalani kahi i hānau ʻia ai ka mea kākau kaulana ʻo Bernard Shaw i ka wā e hiki mai ana. Ua hana ʻino kona makuakāne i ka wai ʻona, no laila lohe pinepine ke keikikāne i nā hakakā ma waena o kona mau mākua ma ka ʻohana. I kona wā ʻōpio, pono ʻo Bernard e loaʻa kahi hana a kāpae i kāna aʻo ʻana. ʻEhā mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e neʻe i Ladana i mea e ʻike ai i kāna moemoeā o lilo i mea kākau maoli. No ʻeiwa mau makahiki e hana ikaika ana ka mea kākau ʻōpio. Hoʻopuka ʻia he ʻelima mau puke hou, kahi e loaʻa ai iā ia ka uku he ʻumikūmālima mau silina.
Ma ka makahiki 30, ua loaʻa iā Shaw kahi hana ma ke ʻano he nūpepa ma nā nūpepa ʻo Ladana, ua kākau ʻo ia i nā loiloi mele a me nā hōʻike keaka. A ʻewalu mau makahiki wale nō ma hope ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e kākau i nā pāʻani keaka, ke ʻano o ia mau mele i kēlā manawa, i nā hale kiʻi liʻiliʻi wale nō. Hoʻāʻo ka mea kākau e hana me nā ʻaoʻao hou i ka hana keaka. Akā hiki mai ka kaulana a me ka piko hana i Shaw ma 56 mau makahiki. I kēia manawa ua lilo ʻo ia i mea kaulana no kāna ʻano akeakamai e hoʻokani iā Kaisara a me Cleopatra, nā mea kaua a me ke kanaka, a me ka The Devil's Apprentice. I kēia makahiki, hāʻawi ʻo ia i ka honua i kahi hana ʻokoʻa - ka comedy "Pygmalion"!
I kēia lā, ʻike ʻia ʻo Bernard Shaw ʻo ia wale nō ke kanaka i hāʻawi ʻia i ka Oscar a me ka Nobel Prize. Ua mahalo ʻo Shaw no kēlā hoʻoholo a ke kiure, e hoʻolilo iā ia i laureate o kekahi o nā makana kiʻekiʻe loa ma ke ʻano o nā puke, akā hōʻole ʻo ia i kahi makana kālā.
I nā makahiki 30, ua hele ka mea pāʻani Irelani i ka "mokuʻāina o ka manaʻolana," e like me kā Shaw i kāhea ai i ka Soviet Union a hui pū me Stalin. I kona manaʻo, he kālaiʻāina mākaukau ʻo Joseph Vissarionovich.
ʻAsexual, mea ʻai mea ʻai
ʻAʻole wale ʻo Bernard Shaw i kahi mea ʻai ulu ikaika akā ʻo ka mea maoli ʻole. No laila ke ola o ka mea kākau nui i hoʻomohala ma hope o ka wahine mua a wahine wale (he wahine kāne make ʻo ia, he helehelena momona loa), ʻaʻohe ona ʻaʻa e hana i kahi pilina pili loa me ka wahine kaulike. Ua manaʻo ʻo Shaw i ka moekolohe e "monstrous a haʻahaʻa". Akā ʻaʻole kēia i kāohi iā ia mai ka male ʻana ma 43, akā ma ke ʻano ʻaʻole e loaʻa kahi pilina ma waena o nā kāne. Ua nānā ʻo Bernard Shaw i kona olakino, alakaʻi i kahi ʻano hana, aloha i ka heʻe, paikikala, mahele e pili ana i ka wai ʻona a me ka puhipaka. Nānā ʻo ia i kona kaupaona i kēlā me kēia lā, helu i ka ʻike calorie o ka meaʻai, me ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka ʻoihana, ka makahiki, ka papaʻai.
ʻO kā Shaw papa kuhikuhi i loko o nā kīʻaha mea kanu, nā sopa, nā laiki, nā salakeke, nā puddings, nā mea ʻai i hana ʻia mai nā huaʻai. He manaʻo maikaʻi ʻole ka mea pāʻani Irelani i ka pāʻani, nā zoo a me ka hopu holoholona, a hoʻohālikelike i nā holoholona i ka paʻa pio ʻana i ka Bastille. Noho paʻa ʻo Bernard Shaw a maʻemaʻe ka noʻonoʻo a hiki i ka 94 mau makahiki a ʻaʻole i make i ka maʻi, akā no ka uha haʻihaʻi: hāʻule i kahi alapiʻi i ke ʻoki ʻana i nā kumulāʻau.
