Pono

Pono is a Hawaiian word for “just, righteous and balanced.”  I just learned that today from a NY Times article written in the aftermath of the Maui wildfires and the loss of Lahaina.  It resonates deeply with me in terms of environmental justice and stewardship.  


Here's a passion flower to symbolize our faith that Maui will rebuild better, embracing the Old Ways yet bringing forth a sustainable future.
