All ʻŌlelo of the Week

“As shown in our mele (songs and chants), Hawaiians celebrated and respected the beauty of nature all around them. To me, this word is a reminder to celebrate the beauty around us—the ʻāina (land), our loved ones, our connections with the land and one another—and to take on kuleana (responsibility) in nurturing all of that beauty.”

—Kaleikūkamakani Ruiz, Counselor, Leeward Community College
