ʻO nā wā kamaliʻi a pau ua mālama lākou iā mākou i ke koʻikoʻi. ʻAʻole lākou i lawe i ko lākou mau maka mai iā mākou a, e like me ka mea i manaʻo ʻia iā mākou, "hoʻopiʻi" maoli lākou iā mākou me ka mana. ʻO ka manaʻo e mahalo ʻia nā makuahine no ia ʻano hoʻonaʻauao he mea lapuwale, akā naʻe, ʻo ia ka mea pono e hana ai.
Makemake lākou e ʻike i kā mākou hana, nā mea a mākou e makemake ai, kahi a mākou e hele ai a me ka mea a mākou e kamaʻilio pū ai. Ke koi nei lākou e pono ʻoe e aʻo maikaʻi, e hoʻolohe a hoʻohālike. I ka 8 makahiki, ʻaʻole pilikia kēia, akā i ka 15 e hoʻomaka ana e luhi.
Malia paha i ka wā ʻōpiopio, ua ʻike ʻoe i kou makuahine he ʻenemi. Ua huhū lākou iā ia no ka hoʻohiki ʻana, no ka hoʻokuʻu ʻole ʻana iā ia e hele e hele, e koi ana iā ia e holoi i nā kīʻaha a lawe i ka ʻōpala. A i ʻole i manaʻo ʻia he koʻikoʻi no ka ʻimi ʻana e hoʻomalu i nā mea āpau, a huāhuā i nā hoaaloha nona nā mākua "ʻoluʻolu" ...
Inā, ma hope o ka hakakā ʻana, lohe hou ʻoe: "E hoʻomaikaʻi ʻoe iaʻu ma hope!" E mākaukau e kāhāhā - pololei ka makuahine. Ua hana ʻia kēia hopena e nā ʻepekema Pelekane mai ke Kulanui o Essex. Ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o ka haʻawina, ua ʻike lākou ʻo nā kaikamahine i hānai ʻia e nā makuahine ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke ola.
He aha ka mahalo iā mama
Ua hoʻohālikelike ka poʻe ʻepekema i ka hoʻonaʻauao i loaʻa i nā keiki a me nā mea i loaʻa iā lākou i ke ola. Uaʻikeʻia ua komo nā keiki o nā makuahine koʻikoʻi i nā kulanui maikaʻi loa a loaʻa iā lākou nā uku kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ka poʻe iʻaeʻia e hana i nā mea a pau i ka wā kamaliʻi. ʻO nā kaikamāhine i hoʻopaʻa paʻa ʻia ma ke ʻano he kamaliʻi ʻaʻole ʻike lākou iā lākou iho i ka hana ʻole. Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole hiki ke loaʻa nā keiki a hoʻomaka i nā ʻohana i ka wā ʻōpiopio.
ʻO nā makuahine i aʻo ikaika iā lākou iho, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hoʻopukapuka kālā i ka hoʻonaʻauao ʻana o kā lākou mau keiki. ʻO kekahi o kā lākou hana nui, ʻo ia ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ke keiki me ka makemake e hele i ke kulanui. A maopopo iā lākou ke kumu i hana ʻia ai kēia.
Eia kekahi, ke aʻo ʻana i ke keiki e hana hou i nā hewa i hana ʻia e nā mākua, e loiloi pono i nā hopena o nā hana i hana ʻia a kuleana no kā lākou hoʻoholo, ʻōlelo a me nā hana. Ua ʻike anei ʻoe iā ʻoe iho a me kou makuahine ma ka wehewehe? ʻO ka manawa kēia e hoʻomaikaʻi iā ia no kāna mea i aʻo ai iā ʻoe.
Ua hoʻokō ʻoe i nā mea he nui, ʻo ia hoʻi ma muli o nā hihia i ka wā i "nakinaki ai kou makuahine iā ʻoe i kou lima a me kou wāwae", pāpā iā ʻoe e hele i nā disco a i ʻole hele i waho i ka pō. ʻO kona koʻikoʻi a me kāna kūpaʻa paʻa i kekahi mau kūlana i lilo ʻoe i wahine ikaika, kūʻokoʻa a hilinaʻi iā ia iho. ʻO nā waiwai i hoʻokomo ʻia i ʻike ʻia i ka wā kamaliʻi hiki ke kōkua iā ʻoe, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike mau.
No laila, e ho'āʻo e hoʻohewa i kou makuahine no kou manaʻo ua hewa ʻo ia. ʻAe, ʻaʻole maʻalahi ia iā ʻoe, a he mea pono ke ʻike. Eia naʻe, he ʻaoʻao ʻelua kēia "medal": ʻaʻole ʻo ka connivance e hoʻolilo iā ʻoe i kanaka ikaika e like me ʻoe i lilo ai.
