Hoʻohana pinepine mākou i ka huaʻōlelo "selffish" me kahi manaʻo maikaʻi ʻole. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia mākou e "poina i kāu kālā", e hōʻike ana e hana hewa ana mākou. He aha ka manaʻo o ka manaʻo ponoʻī a ʻino loa?
He aha kā mākou e hana nei ma ka honua? Hana mākou i ka lā a pau. Moe mākou i ka pō. Nui ka poʻe o mākou e hele i ka papa manawa like i kēlā me kēia lā. Hauʻoli mākou. Makemake mākou i nā kālā hou aʻe. Makemake mākou, hopohopo mākou, inaina mākou a hoka mākou.
Huhu mākou i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, akā ʻaʻole maopopo mākou ua lawa kēia e hoʻololi iā mākou iho. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ʻimi mākou a pau i ke aloha a me ka ʻae ʻia e nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, akā ʻaʻole i loaʻa i nā mea he nui. No laila he aha ke kumu hoʻomaka, ke kumu o kēia mau hana a mākou i kapa ai he ola?
Ke noʻonoʻo ʻoe i ka huaʻōlelo «ego», he aha ka manaʻo iā ʻoe? I koʻu wā kamaliʻi a ʻōpio, lohe mau wau i nā huaʻōlelo e like me "E poina i kāu ego" a i ʻole "He manaʻo pilikino ʻo ia." He mau ʻōlelo kēia aʻu i manaʻo ai ʻaʻole e haʻi mai kekahi iaʻu a i ʻole e pili ana iaʻu.
Ua hoʻāʻo wau e ʻimi i kahi ala e kōkua ai iaʻu e hōʻole ʻo wau hoʻi, i kēlā me kēia manawa e noʻonoʻo wale i koʻu mau manaʻo ponoʻī a me koʻu mau makemake, akā i ka manawa like ke manaʻo nei au a me ka hilinaʻi. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ʻo ka mea wale nō e makemake ai ka hapa nui o nā keiki e hoʻokomo pono i ka hui a i ka manawa like ʻole e ʻike ʻole ʻia. Mai kū i waho.
ʻAʻole maopopo pinepine mākou e kū i ko mākou mau manaʻo. Ma kēia ala e ʻimi ai mākou i kahi ala e launa pū ai me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe. Hōʻalo mākou i ka poʻe ʻokoʻa, a i ka manawa like mākou e hoʻāʻo e wehe, altruistic a ʻaʻole loa e hōʻike i ko mākou mau makemake ma ke akea, no ka makaʻu i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia ka manaʻo.
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka huaʻōlelo "ego" wale nō ʻo "I" a i ʻole "I" o kekahi kanaka kūʻokoʻa.
ʻO ka mea nui ka mea a mākou e ʻike ai iā mākou iho. Pono mākou e makaʻala ʻaʻole wale iā mākou iho, akā i kā mākou hana a me kā mākou hana i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe. Me ka ʻole o kēia ʻike, ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke ʻike a ʻike i ko mākou kumu maoli ma ka honua.
Ke ho'āʻo mau nei mākou e "kūpono" i mea e hoʻomau ai mākou i ka makaʻu i ko mākou mau makemake a hana a ʻōlelo wale i ka mea i manaʻo ʻia mai iā mākou. Manaʻo naive mākou ua palekana mākou.
Eia naʻe, me kēia mau mea a pau, ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke moeʻuhane, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo ka hopena, ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke ulu, hoʻomohala a aʻo. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike maikaʻi i kou ʻano ponoʻī, e hoʻomau ʻoe e hele i ke ola, me ka manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo kou mau naʻau, nā manaʻoʻiʻo, nā hoa pili, nā pilina a me nā hoaaloha he mea maʻamau loa a ʻo nā mea a pau e hana ʻia ma waho o kou mana.
E hoʻomau ʻoe i ka manaʻo e like me ke ola hoʻokahi lā nui a luhi ma hope o ka lā ma mua. Pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai e hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia kāu mau moemoeā a me kou mau moemoeā inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i hilinaʻi i kou mau ikaika a me ka makemake e hoʻomohala iā lākou?
ʻO ka maʻamau o ke kanaka he 75 mau manaʻo i ka lā. ʻO ka hapa nui o lākou, ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia, no ka mea ʻaʻole mākou e hoʻolohe iā lākou. Ke hoʻomau nei mākou ʻaʻole e hoʻolohe i kā mākou i loko a i ʻole, inā makemake ʻoe, "ego" a, no laila, e hoʻopau i ka nānā ʻole ʻana i kā mākou mau manaʻo i ʻike ʻole ʻia a me nā makemake huna e haʻi iā mākou e hoʻoikaika.
Eia naʻe, ʻike mau mākou i ko mākou mau manaʻo. ʻO kēia no ka mea e hoʻopuka ana kēlā me kēia manaʻo i nā manaʻo, a laila e hoʻopilikia i ko mākou ʻano. ʻO ka maʻamau, ke loaʻa iā mākou nā manaʻo hauʻoli, hauʻoli mākou - a kōkua kēia iā mākou e manaʻo maikaʻi.
Ke komo nā manaʻo ʻino i loko, kaumaha mākou. ʻO ko mākou naʻau maikaʻi ke kumu o ko mākou manaʻo maikaʻi ʻole. Akā, laki ʻoe! Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomalu i kou ʻano ke ʻike ʻoe i kāu «I», kou «ego», a aʻo i ke kuhikuhi ʻana a i ʻole ka mālama ʻana i kou manaʻo.
ʻAʻole hewa a hewa paha kāu "I". ʻO ʻoe wale nō. ʻO kou ʻuhane i loko e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻokō kūleʻa i kāu pahuhopu i ke ola. A no ke alakaʻi ʻana iā ʻoe, aʻo iā ʻoe ma nā koho kūpono a me ka hewa, a i ka hopena e kōkua iā ʻoe e ʻike i kou hiki nui.
He kuleana ko kēlā me kēia kanaka e moeʻuhane, a moeʻuhane e pili ana i kekahi mea honua, aneane hiki ʻole ke hilinaʻi ʻia
ʻO ia ka "ego" hiki ke kōkua iā ʻoe ma ke ala i ka pahuhopu ʻaʻole e lilo i mea hōʻeha i kou mau manaʻo maikaʻi ʻole. I ka manawa aʻe e pilikia ai ʻoe, e nīnau iā ʻoe iho no ke aha. E ho'āʻo e hahai i kēlā me kēia manaʻo a ʻike i ke kumu e lawe ai ia i ka ʻike maikaʻi ʻole. ʻO ka ʻike maʻamau o ka mea āu e makemake ai mai ke ola e hōʻoiaʻiʻo ʻoe iā ʻoe iho a hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokō.
Lawe i nā pilikia. E ʻae iā ʻoe iho e makemake hou aʻe! Mai kaupalena iā ʻoe iho i nā pahuhopu liʻiliʻi a me nā moeʻuhane āu e manaʻo ai ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokō. Mai noʻonoʻo ʻoe ua like kou ola me hoʻokahi lā hana hou. Hānau ʻia nā kānaka a make. Hele mai nā kānaka i kou ola i kekahi lā a noho i ka lā aʻe.
Aia nā manawa kūpono ma luna o kou poʻo. No laila, mai waiho ʻoe i lalo e ʻike i hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia kāu moeʻuhane hihiu. ʻAʻole mākou ma ʻaneʻi ma ka honua e hana i kahi mea ʻoluʻolu ʻole a i ʻole e hōʻeha wale ai. Aia mākou ma ʻaneʻi e ʻimi i ka naʻauao a me ke aloha, e ulu a mālama kekahi i kekahi.
ʻO ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i kāu «I» i kēia pahuhopu nui ua hala ka hapalua o ke kaua.
No ka mea kākau: ʻO Nicola Mar he mea kākau, mea kākau moʻolelo, a me ka mea kākau.
